    I know how that goes. I hope you can come out of this changes unscathed. I'll stick around for a bit. 😀

    Transgenders in Olympics

    Not as often as certain groups of people would make you believe. The internet has allowed information to travel so much faster and in the rare instance it does happen, we suddenly see it spread and used as fuel for said group to force opinions from and to their base. It really isn't as large...

    The more things change...

    My company was getting cheap even though we were making record profits. As an analyst, I had access to enough info to know they had the money. They stopped being willing to pay people what they were worth. When people left, they refused to hire anyone and just expected everyone else to pick...

    Seeking a Moderator for the Moderators

    And there it is. I tend to agree. I know I've been away for a short vacation, but it seems to me that the moderators do a well enough job still that there's no need to have someone to moderate them. If there ever is a rare dispute that can't be mediated, Jon can step in. I just don't see it...

    How to Build a 3D Printer?

    That is very cool. Also, my local library does 3d printing at cost of materials. That may be a good source as well.

    Seeking a Moderator for the Moderators

    Maybe have more than one moderator of moderators? One in each of these two countries would probably solve it, and any disputes between the two of them could be handled by Jon. ...or a moderator of moderators of moderators. 😉

    Best Gaming Controller for Both PC and Console?

    If you love racing games, you should invest in a wheel. Nothing else will ever compare. I've always like the Logitech ones. They make versions for consoles and PC, but typically you won't find something that can support both Xbox and PS at very well. Most will work with PC and one of...

    How to Build a 3D Printer?

    I've never thought about building one with separate parts before. I did buy an Ender 3 that comes in pieces and has to be put together. People have created many additional components you can use to alter the printer. This is fascinating to me and now I'm going to be sucked down this rabbit hole.

    How to automate importing 31 .csv files into SQL Server?

    I know this is older, but I've used Python and SSIS to accomplish this. Both can work as standalone or combined solutions, depending on how variable you need this to be.

    Transgenders in Olympics

    This is where other things can categorize them instead of gender, like weight. It's no different than what already exists in many men's sports. We can't pretend that all of one gender, even biologically, is created equal. This is why so many biological women are even being accused of being...

    Transgenders in Olympics

    As someone who has known women who could kick my ass, I agree. This could be a starting point for many sports as others are worked out. The weight class doesn't even need to be the same across sports either. Wouldn't that also help solve for all this argument about biological men being...

    The more things change...

    Thanks! Yeah, just be mindful of changes. I felt that way at my previous company as well. Then, a lot happened and ownership and management changes occurred that made the place just... a shell of what it was. I hope it doesn't happen to you. It took about 13 years and a move on my part...

    Transgenders in Olympics

    Gender isn't simply biological. There are many more women than you know that have XY chromosomes and are born biologically female. I've had friends that were. I'm not sure separating any sport by gender is the answer anymore. What about weight class instead?

    I can't believe even Pat left. What is happening around here these days? 😞 I'm still not working in Access, but I have finally left a company that completely killed my motivation after 20 years. I now have a new job that I absolutely love. I'm also getting to experience and learn so much...

    New Puppy Woes

    We are starting obedience training Saturday. The same trainer will be training him to be a Service Dog after his obedience training and he is old enough. Thanks for the words of encouragement. I'm sorry about you losing your dog. I've been there and that is always hard.

    New Puppy Woes

    Yes, he has a blanket throw that the breeder provided that smells like his litter mates. We cover it at night. He's doing OK. I'm just anxious and stressed.

    New Puppy Woes

    With Colin, there was never a concern he might mess in his crate. Not sure I can apply the same methods here. :p I'm trying. I really am. Thanks everyone.

    New Puppy Woes

    I forgot how much work a new puppy was in my younger years. Now that I have medical issues, it's just been a sleepless and painful experience. We picked up a new puppy yesterday to train as a Service Dog for my wife. His first appointment with the trainer is next week, but I'll be surprised...
