		<description><![CDATA[Well so much for getting a Sony Viao. I bit the bullet and bought a new Santa Rosa 15&#8243; Macbook Pro in the end. After a patient 18 day wait between ordering and delivery it finally arrived last Friday.
As I&#8217;ve mentioned previously, I&#8217;m no fan of OSX so I also picked up a copy of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My preferred tool for constructing queries against MySQL databases is the command line client. One niggle that has plagued me since I started using the client was the inability to retrieve warnings that sometimes occur on queries.
This morning I stumbled across the following in the MySQL manual:
mysql> SET GLOBAL query_cache_size = 40000;
Query OK, 0 rows [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ever since Google launched their maps service the direction code has pretty much sucked. Thankfully a long over due feature has now been added - draggable directions!
I think it&#8217;s safe to say Google now has other UK/European routing services like the AA and RAC beat. As for Streetmap, welcome to 1999!

		<description><![CDATA[By default MySQL is not case sensitive when performing comparisons against string columns unless you explicitly declare them as BINARY in the table schema. However, I was caught out when performing a query similar to the following (prepared statement):

SELECT
  label, composer, workTitle, worksId
FROM
  labels L INNER JOIN
  composers C ON (C.id = [...]]]></description>

This was easy enough, a couple of commands to subversion, rsync and some glue and I&#8217;d be done. However, an [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At every company I&#8217;ve worked for and many open source projects I see MyISAM tables with INT(11) columns. Why?
MySQL&#8217;s INT columns are limited to 2^32 unsigned (4,294,967,295) which if you count the length is 10 digits long. Therefore INT(11) is impossible - although it worth noting the length on integer columns is only the display [...]]]></description>

When I&#8217;m not in the process of upgrading I pay little attention to PC hardware so [...]]]></description>
