[^] Disclaimer: I have no connection to this site, no relationship with anyone at the site.
I am so impressed by the quality of this website/resource developed by a multi-talented group of people (many with Ph.D.'s) in Poland ! "Too good not to share," as I used to hear in my boyhood (in the late Neolithic) from Dougie, the expert boy-thief of apple-turn-overs and donuts from Mr. Thompson's bakery.
An amazing range of calculators from imminently practical to "far-out:" [^].
Want a "vampire apocalypse calculator:" [^] 
I am really enjoying their calculator+tutorial geometry examples, like [^], while I test the little geometry library for WinForms I am working on now.
I am impressed by the design of the web-site, which is not "kiddified," not dumbed-down, and, imho, has an elegant, yet minimalist, design ... with liberal use of white-space contributing to its readability. No pop-ups !
enjoy, Bill

Greetings Thank you for the link I am proud of my Polish bretheren I trust they didn't merely copy Wolfram|Alpha: Computational Intelligence[^] By the way "Mucha" means "housefly" - Cheerioski

You doubt the integrity of your "brethren" ? Why not do some reading before making such allegations ?PaltryProgrammer wrote: By the way "Mucha" means "housefly"
Why are you telling me this ?

"Mucha" is the surname of the founder of the site I examined a few calculators though not too many Wolfram seems to offer similar abilities - Cheerioski

On behalf of the Disneyland Character Casting staff, we appreciate your auditioning for the role of "Troll."
However, the consensus of our judges was that your performance, while sarcastic, lacked the comedic depth we expect for that role, lacked dramatic focus.
We found your wishing to be known by the name "Paltry" unsettling, given the etymology of that word:Quote: "mean, worthless, despicable," 1560s, probably an adjectival use of noun paltry "worthless thing" (1550s), associated with dialectal palt, pelt "trash," cognate with Middle Low German and East Frisian palte "rag," Middle Dutch palt "broken or torn fragment." Similar formation in Low German paltrig "rubbishy," East Frisian palterig "ragged, torn."
We want our Trolls to be subtly wicked, while still being folksy, and attractive. The glint in their eyes should suggest mischief-making, not malice.
Wishing you a brighter future, Disneyland, International.

I love Wolfram Alpha. Amazing. The free version is great. I used to have a paid subscription when I used it more often.
I agree though, this omni calculator site seems like a rip-off from Wolfram Alpha, but omni seems to have calculators that are not part of Wolfram, so I will give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they were "inspired" by Wolfram Alpha.

I look at SQLite Administrator and find the last update is 2008.
it can create SQLite3 database. the assembly SQLite3.dll it goes was still in 2007 version. Shall I just override this copy with new version of SQLite3.dll( such as in 2021)?

Probably not. There have been some API changes since then. Try DB Browser for SQLite[^].

I have SQLite Expert (free) and like it. I'm also using SQLite ODBC Driver[^] and I am wondering if there is another one that is considered better or is this the one.

Yup. Epic's business model seems to be based around giving away expensive games to train users that they should never have to pay for anything on the Epic store. I wonder how well that's working out for them. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

https://kotaku.com/epic-wins-big-fortnite-lawsuit-against-apple-1847653612
summary
Despite representing a significant victory for Epic that reduces Apple’s control over how in-app purchases are conducted, it was far from a sweeping win for the game publisher. Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers ruled against Epic on all other counts in the trial. Apple, she concluded, is not in violation of antitrust law, and does not need to allow Epic or other entities the freedom to create their own stores on Apple platforms. Additionally, Apple is not required to allow Fortnite back on the App Store.

Epic Wins Big Fortnite Lawsuit Against Apple
Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers ruled against Epic on all other counts in the trial
Well, which is it?
You a clickbait headline writer on the side?

Both: EPIC lost the cause for breach of contract but another trial declared that specific clause in the contract unlawful (Apple forces devs to have all in-app transactions through the Apple store, so Apple gets a 30% cut of microstransactions).

Rephrasing my question another way - given what Epic has lost/won...is anything going to have much of an impact on Apple? I guess that's the bottom line.
|
|

|

Yes, it means that all the app (mostly games) developers can route their in-app purchases through their own site instead than through the Apple store, hetting a larger cut of the money and negating it to Apple.
