That'll tell you the largest number, but not give you a state (unless I'm misunderstanding what you are doing). That may or may not be what you want.WWGD said:Kind of weird
There is a surprisingly simpler way of doing this: SELECT Distinct * FROM [Table_Name]
My bad, something else I was working on at the moment. It was getting rid of duplicates in a table. I had seen a few convoluted queries to do it , but this one worked fine. Strange that it is commonly mentioned as an interview question.Ibix said:That'll tell you the largest number, but not give you a state (unless I'm misunderstanding what you are doing).

So what happened with the charger? Where is a scam involved? Perhaps, she merely has her priorities set 'differently'.WWGD said:Scam alert? Lady at coffee shop asks to borrow my phone charger " for an emergency"...
I offered it to her, she tried it . It did not fit her phone and she returned it to me. I looked at her while she ate a large meal until closing time. I can't think of what kind of scam she may have wanted to pull. The charger is not expensive, so keeping it would not be that big of a deal.nuuskur said:So what happened with the charger?

The simplest of all possible scams. She wanted to get you to let her use your phone charger. She presumably had a desire to use her phone. Calling it an "emergency" got you to offer your charger. Calling it "I want to tell my girlfriend about this cute skirt I just thought about buying" could have been both less successful and more embarrassing.WWGD said:I offered it to her, she tried it .

I have offered my charger to some who have just asked, no need to say it is an energency. But maybe you're right and she believed I ( people in general) would not lend it otherwise.jbriggs444 said:The simplest of all possible scams. She wanted to get you to let her use your phone charger.

Often we see in others those things that we see in ourselves. Happily that makes your blind spot a good thing. Sadly, it makes her misapprehension a bad one.WWGD said:I have offered my charger to some who have just asked, no need to say it is an energency.

Any overlap in the two kinds?nuuskur said:There are two kinds of people: the perverts that enjoy being watched and those who don't.

I like them medium. Some even like tartare. Do you? For winter I don't consider cold food for the most part.skyshrimp said:I saw a YouTube vid that showed an American diner serving medium rare hamburgers. I tried it myself at home and preferred it to well done.
If you were to have a bbq and serve a guest a medium rare burger, they'll reject it, thinking they'll get food poisoning.

It is the Weiwei weight factor.fresh_42 said:I'm pleasantly surprised that a hardware store here has an ad with Ai Weiwei.
Weiwei's way way out of my league because of the Weiwei weight factor.WWGD said:It is the Weiwei weight factor.
Lol, I actually made this once, waiting at a traffic light as pedestrian: "Cough, cough, f*** SARS!" Somebody next to me actually jumped away.WWGD said:New way of guaranteeing a place in the subway with space : cough, cough (whisper) Corona, cough , cough.
Though it may backfire andlead to the medics jumping on us and putting us in quarantine for a long time.fresh_42 said:Lol, I actually made this once, waiting at a traffic light as pedestrian: "Cough, cough, f*** SARS!" Somebody next to me actually jumped away.
Two weeks, all inclusive. Why not?WWGD said:Though it may backfire andlead to the medics jumping on us and putting us in quarantine for a long time.
Two weeks? How so? Wont they wait until the epidemic is over?fresh_42 said:Two weeks, all inclusive. Why not?
Those who were flown out had to stay 2 weeks - incarnation time. However, they kept them in a military base.WWGD said:Two weeks? How so? Wont they wait until the epidemic is over?
Maybe you must be in the right country when this happens. May not be that much fun in others.fresh_42 said:Those who were flown out had to stay 2 weeks - incarnation time. However, they kept them in a military base.
