<pifiu> LOL
<pifiu> i have a small flow chart of the description of the program
<pifiu> WHERE DO I FIND THE "WHO" lol!
<Kemurii> gonna wash my hair and teeth and go out, spring is coming! :)
<pifiu> i wrote it on paper and scanned, it i need to pass it to illustrator or something
<sjrussel> in a job posting, presumably, or a freelancer site
<pifiu> such as?
<mhillyer> Local yellow pages, guru.com, rentacoder.com
<pifiu> o0o
<infi> pifiu: if you can't manage programmers, recruit people, and admin your network, resign already.
<mhillyer> Go to forums.mysql.com and post in the jobs forum even.
<archivist> slave a geek
<sjrussel> monster.com, hotjobs, craigslist
<pifiu> oh lol wow
<pifiu> well i know the main job finders, just didnt know if there was a specific one for programming. I assume there is!
<sjrussel> google find a coder and read all the hits. that'll cover your bases
<pifiu> ok
<mhillyer> Is 'oh LOL wow' a split infinitive?
<RedACE> yes, read ALL the hits
<pifiu> yes mhillyer
<pifiu> you know it!
<shabbs> all 912495123 of them
<Kemurii> I got a job 5 years ago joinging #php, and saying "Ok, somebody give me a job now", had a job in an other country next Monday :)
<shabbs> 912495124...
<pifiu> lol shabbs, no im going to redo my flow chart first
<pifiu> then browse around, figure out some other stuff of WHAT i want done to the last point
<sjrussel> yeah, makes sure it's pretty. Pretty flowcharts impress good coders
<pifiu> and then come back and find some people
<pifiu> lol oh do they? lol
<pifiu> yay
<infi> (pointy haired boss)*10^23
<archivist> heh wots a flow chart
<pifiu> any programs you guys recommend for a flow chart?
<sjrussel> microsoft project
<shabbs> visio does a decent job
<shabbs> or dia
<cookoo> visio or smartdraw
<infi> pifiu: don't make a flowchart. write the specifications and scope of your program, the inputs and outputs, and what you want it to do. let the programmer decide HOW to do it.
<archivist> I hate explaining to a phb what i am doing/writing they just dont understand
<infi> you are not qualified to flowchart a program if you have never coded.
<shabbs> sure you are
<sjrussel> no you're not
<sjrussel> only to flowchart user experience
<sjrussel> features, not implementation
<laurens_> actually, you are perfectly qualified to make flowcharts. Just don't expect them to be followed
<cookoo> flowchart can also be used to describe workflow, not program logic
<shabbs> or a dataflow
<Kemurii> mine says now: Wash Hair -> Dress -> Beer
<Kemurii> nice weekend all
<shabbs> later Kemurii
<Kemurii> crap, bug, forgot the toilet part
<sjrussel> that would be a crappy bug
<sjrussel> what's all this in my chair?
<shabbs> what's a dolphine?
<archivist> you forgot to go to the bathroom before pulling faces and straining
<pifiu> i dont want to explain HOW to do it, im explaining what i want done and the results
<pifiu> basically a work flow
<pifiu> as far as features and what to do if this happens
<shabbs> that's good
<nujra> hi Folks how do I find out the the rows updated in the last n hours in a table?
<C_Kode> add a timestamp column
<nujra> I did C_Kode .. I neeed sql to extract it out
<bonnyman> hey guys I was talking with a guy about a php mysql project that was a bundle "but I can not recall the name" -- fmm -- or -- mmx -- anybody know??
<infi> nujra: WHERE ts_column > DATESUB(NOW(),INTERVAL n HOURS)
<infi> er
<infi> nujra: WHERE ts_column > DATE_SUB(NOW(),INTERVAL n HOURS)
<sjrussel> explain the problem to google, bonnyman
<shabbs> bonnyman: there is LAMP
<nujra> date_sub doesnt work infi .. it retuns 0 rows back!
<infi> you're not using it right, or your timestamp column doesn't do what you think it does.
<sjrussel> for instance, is it a unix timestamp?
<nujra> I have a datetime column
<shabbs> nujra: do you update it each time the row is updated?
<nujra> yeah I do
<laurens_> Can anyone reccomend any good books on (My)SQL? :)
<shabbs> !tell us about book
<SQL> shabbs asked me to tell you this: MySQL by Paul Dubois: http://www.kitebird.com/mysql-book/
<nujra> I can query and order by time DESC and I see the time stamps
<laurens_> thank you
<laurens_> My minimal SQL knowledge is too little, really
<C_Kode> select time from order;
<nujra> heres is my sql: select * from blah where created_at > DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 8 hour) I get no rows back!
<laurens_> How do I stop MySQL from returning more than one row with the same data?
<infi> what is the column type of created_at, and what is the EXACT query? if it is what you typed right there, it will not work.
<infi> laurens_: LIMIT 1;
<laurens_> thank you
<nujra> infi: the column type of created_at is datetime. and whats wrong with my statement
<laurens_> wait
<laurens_> that's not what I want
<laurens_> LIMIT 1 makes it only return one row
<laurens_> I want to prune the double rows I get.
<sjrussel> DISTINCT
<laurens_> yay
<infi> nujra: HOURS, not HOUR
<laurens_> thanks :)
<nujra> infi: Hours doesnt work generates an mysql error
<laurens_> it works!
<laurens_> thank you infi and sjrussel
<laurens_> wow, i really had a bad idea about databases up until now.
<laurens_> I was forced to learn Access in school :-|
<nujra> infiL any thoughts?
<mhillyer> I was forced to learn Oracle, but rebelled and learned MySQL instead.
<RedACE> at least you didn't learn DB2
<RedACE> >_<
<mhillyer> Vive le revolution! http://www.openwin.org/mike/images/zak_che_warhol.png
<laurens_> err. ya.
<laurens_> who is that?
<mhillyer> Friend of mine, Zak Greant
<mhillyer> Formerly MySQL's community advocate.
<nujra> infi: are ya around?
<shabbs> nujra: as has been stated, HOUR not HOURS
<nujra> shabbs: I did use HOUR
<shabbs> then what's the error?
<nujra> shabbs: I just dont get any rows back
<laurens_> hey mhillyer, are you canaadian?
<mhillyer> Too right eh!
<laurens_> i had a typo in my sql half an hour ago
<laurens_> ... i wrote accoonts instead of accounts
<shabbs> nujra: select the result of the date_sub first, make sure it's returnin the result you're expecting
<nujra> thanks shabbs!
<orbx> Can someone please link me to the mysql documentation which shows you how to change the root password?
<inviso> !m orbx reset root

<orbx> inviso > I am trying to access mysql for the first time, because i have just installed it. When i type "mysql" into the terminal i get a access denied error, how would i stop this?
<infi> type the proper command. mysql -u USER -p

<danq> hrm
<danq> i'm not impressed with the response times of my cluster.
<sjrussel> feed it donuts and coffee
<sjrussel> for a supercharge, switch to espresso
<danq> It doesn't wear a badge, what make syou think that would help?
<danq> See above.
<sjrussel> do you mean NDB?
<danq> Yes.
<sjrussel> it's not expected to be faster than normal mysql
<sjrussel> AFAIK
<danq> Yes, I don't expect it to, either.
<danq> However, it's much much slower.
<danq> I suspect my config.
<sjrussel> are you doing alot of joins?
<danq> Nah.
<danq> Single queries - inserts and reads
<lakez> danq, what version?"
<danq> 5.0.18
<lakez> check out the comments for 5.1.6 ..they've done so many fixes to it... so give it a bit to become stable code and it'll be sweet
<danq> hrm...
<danq> I'm hesitant with 5.1 just yet.
<danq> Should I be?
