What's with the "This being Europe" being repeated over and over?

Writes still take locks. The isolation level is called Read-uncommitted for a reason.

I fail to see why setting the transaction isolation level to read uncommitted would make any difference to the data load process.

True.

It seems that this was from a presentation at StrangeLoop 2011 (never heard of it before) that occured from 18 to 20 of September (https://thestrangeloop.com/news/11/01/27/strange-loop-2011) -- it ended yesterday!

Recordings will be available (http://groups.google.com/group/cascalog-user/msg/d357e51cbbb...), I just hope I remember to come back and check for them.

There are some other slide decks available from the conference (http://lanyrd.com/2011/strange-loop/coverage/); some other presentations seem interesting.

There is also another awesome slide deck (this time with annotations) from another presentation from Bill Odom, regarding key mappings: http://billodom.com/talks/vim-key-mapping.pdf

You can press the tab key in Vim to get command auto completion.

For example, :colo<tab> completes to :colorscheme.

If hibernation didn't use compression, there was no need for CPU involvement due to DMA. Since there would be no CPU involvement, being multi-core enabled wouldn't be of help.

Verbatim copy of http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Best_Vim_Tips.

There is no need to save the home location with the time.

If you save the UTC date of the event, the localized date for some timezone can be extrapolated from it.

That doesn't seem more helpful to me... it's just making the worst case worser.

In a situation which other queries would benefit from the id1, id2 order, and it wouldn't pay off creating another index, using a index seek instead a table scan is way better.

It's refreshing to read such sincere and bullshit-free description from a manufacturer.

I wasn't knocking .NET; I had the idea that coding something in C# or F# would result in the same IL output, which, after reading MichaelGG's reply, I realized was completely wrong...

Regarding Python speed, I know it's pretty slow, especially the IronPython implementation.

FAST? It's still .NET. Regarding you example, I'd much rather write

  value = dict.get('foo', 'default')

in IronPython.

It means that you can now write plugins for Vim using Python 3. It's worth noting that you could already write Vim plugins with Python 2.x.
