True, but that would be about 10 years more than George Lucas was aiming for with the Ewoks. We're getting there.

To @sanderrossel
Based on our last conversation I just published an article containing information about table types (or UDT's in Oracle) along with few other mechanisms to pass data to the database.
So if still interested, have a look

Nice article, thanks for thinking about me!

Since it is sooo slow in the lounge today, I was forced to peruse some of the recent articles...it was either that or do work.  Anyhow, I just came across my favorite new quote from this article:
Introduction to the 'Fail Fast!' Principle in Software Development[^]
Quote: If a function be advertised to return an error code in the event of difficulties, thou shalt check for that code, yea, even though the checks triple the size of thy code and produce aches in thy typing fingers, for if thou thinkest 'it cannot happen to me', the gods shall surely punish thee for thy arrogance."
- Harry Spencer

Yeah, I've been moved over to sometimes not even catching exceptions on user actions, or catching them, using a popup that says "that didn't work" and then swallowing it. I have much tighter handling in the services tier.

Sure you can. I don't think anybody will mind as long as you don't do it here.

So, did anyone else contribute to the project? We're getting close to the ship date, and I can hardly wait to see the product. If you joined the fray, what ideas are you playing with to use this contraption?

You must mean the Omega 13[^]?
Sorry, I never heard of it, but it sounds like my kind of toy. Is it compact enough to send it flying [^]?

Nope. I mean the Omega 2 that was mentioned here months ago, a project being funded via Kickstarter.

I know this will come as a surprise to absolutely everyone, but my winio tablet crashed, today.
It's only about the three-hundredth time it's crashed, in the few months I've had it, but this time it actually gave me an error code: 0x80070008.
"Wow!" thought I, "if they're finally going to the trouble of giving me something to look up, I guess I'd gosh-darned better look it up!"
So guess what I did.
Yup. I had dinner.
Later, I decided to google-with-yahoo the error code.
Apparently it's an "insufficient storage space" error, which I found somewhat surprising, given that there's tens of gig free space, and all I was doing when I got the error was logging in from a cold boot.
So I googled-with-yahoo further, finding a site named wikifixes, which sounds all very collaborative and nicey, that told me...
... Actually, it told me things completely different from what the ms MVP (Most Vainglorious Pillock) page had said.
Intrigued to the point of just-barely-incomplete ennui, I permitted my gaze to rest on the address bar.
It read: http://wikifixes.com/errors/b/0x/0x80070008/
That sounded perfectly reasonable, thought I -- but then I thought: "What if I change the final 8 to a 3?" (because 0x80070003 was another number that had shown up in my initial search results).
Lo and behold, it worked! It gave me information that was---
... Word-for-word verbatim (numbers notwithstanding, obviously) of the information given for 0x80070008.
Not only that, but it did exactly the same for any number!
In fact, not just numbers:
http://wikifixes.com/errors/b/0x/0xTheSiteOwnerisaLyingSh1thead/[^]
Click it, do!
The site is harmless (unless you click through to any generous offers of succour -- in which case, what the Hell are you doing on CP?), but I think it would be nice for the lying sh1thead to see in his logs that lots of people know that he's a lying sh1thead.

It's a winio tab...
the first lookup was almost correct, remove the last 2 words:
"insufficient storage space"
Take 2 tabs, sleep early,
and in the morning google for trade-in opportunities.
repeat until entire dose completed.

Yes, but I'm talking about English, not some Johnny-Foreigner language.
