Yeah, I don't think it works that way. You need big numbers on both sides for it to work, so a few worth of mouth users isn't going to cut it in new markets. Although it may be somewhat easier than starting from scratch. For now, he's still busy enough conquering the Dutch market ;) Best, Sander Azure DevOps Succinctly (free eBook) Azure Serverless Succinctly (free eBook) Migrating Apps to the Cloud with Azure arrgh.js - Bringing LINQ to JavaScript

I was not speaking about romantic relationships. I meant all kind of relationships, professional ones, friends, party pals, whatsoever. Crash over was at one guy's place I met while my scholarship at the end of college. I went back around 5 years later to the city and needed a place to stay, he didn't say no when I asked. I bought stuff, cook dinner, left more in the fridge as I needed to cook and had a good long chat with him about people we knew or how the city was at the moment, went out to have a couple of beers (on me of course) and went to sleep. Next day he was working, I had a shower, something to breakfast, left a note saying "thank you" and continued towards Amsterdam to celebrate new years eve there.

There's a movie about (some of) his life, Immortal Beloved. Though I cannot recall most of it, it's been about twenty years ago since I saw it, I do remember I quite liked it. It gets decent scores on IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes too. There's a movie about Mozart too, Amadeus, which I also liked and which scores very highly. Both recommended.

Maybe I misunderstand you, but this makes no sense. For me, all I need is a laptop to do my work, let's say a good one costs me €2000. I buy a mouse, keyboard and good monitor. I don't want to reconnect cables every day so I buy a docking station. All in all another €1000. That's a lot of money, so maybe I can set up a same setup at home as well for that money. So for €3000 I've got everything and that will last me at least five years. After five years I'd probably need to replace only the laptop, so let's say all in all it'll cost you about €500 a year. Now here's the neat part, you're employed so your company should provide you with all those tools. I have a very small business and €3000 is a very small five-yearly investment with the current rates for programmers. After taxes that's still only like a €2000 investment, if even that. As for licences, many companies have free licenses for small teams, students, etc. Like the Visual Studio and SQL Server Community Editions. So you can use those at home, or if you need tools for work, guess what: your employer should provide them. So I guess the answer to your question is 0%.

Using stored procedures can be much more effective that at some tasks then attempting to do it in code. I have seen systems that attempted to do the work only in the application and their performance was orders of magnitude larger than it could have been. I have also seen cases where because there was no clean separation of data access (because after all it should be right were it is needed right?) that a conversion to a different database took years (actual years) to do. And that conversion was driven by real business needs and not just because the newest CTO decided they wanted something different.

No, I'm still going forward ;p Best, Sander Azure DevOps Succinctly (free eBook) Azure Serverless Succinctly (free eBook) Migrating Apps to the Cloud with Azure arrgh.js - Bringing LINQ to JavaScript

Yes, I've found that, generally, I have to watch at least three YouTube videos to become a true expert. Will Rogers never met me.

Perhaps you are asking if I created an actual design document(s) rather than just winging it. Then yes I did do that. Multiple times. trønderen wrote: I suspect that your answer is "No - I never designed any non-trivial relational database". oops you guessed wrong. I have worked as an architect from day zero and day one startups. I have created enterprise designs for entire companies from scratch (designed then coded the database from scratch.) I have been a DBA team lead. I have been working in the database to code layer domain for 40 years. I have been a principle designer, reviewer and process developer for more than 20 years. That includes creating process documents from everything for the entire enterprise down to even integration and unit testing level. I have written so many designs, actual documented designs, that I could not possibly attempt to enumerate the number. And I have read a lot of technical books at various levels. I have probably about 80 technical books. Those are the ones I kept. I purged at least twice that number a number of years ago. So I do have some expertise in understanding what a book can effectively cover. So that is my background - what is yours? trønderen wrote: To phrase it somewhat more rudely: It sounds as if you don't have a clue what data design is about. Well you got that one wrong. So perhaps some of your other conclusions are also based on incorrect assumptions.

I understand. Maybe it’s because I didn’t explain it clearly. Maybe it’s because my English is not that good! My project is a software material "file" (such as xxx.bin). It is not an image file (such as bmp png...etc.) but a processed file (such as 0x4000~0x5000 blocks to store each pixel) Corresponding position, 0x7000~0x8000 block stores the pixel values ​​used, sorted and stored) After the software reads the file and then performs the internal calculation of the calculation software, the result will be displayed on the software as a material graphic. The other parts have been parsed, and the "arrangement order" of the remaining pixel value data cannot be solved, so I don't care about the corresponding position of its pixel (the corresponding position has been parsed in the block where it is stored). So my need is the pixel The arrangement has nothing to do with the structure of the graph. I have a rough understanding of the image format you mentioned. So I'm just talking about the arrangement of pixels. It may be that my English is not good. Some of the translations used caused trouble in asking questions. I’m sorry! The illustration is for viewing and understanding. It is drawn using VS according to its stored block pixel data. Otherwise it is just a group of arranged pixel values.
