Friend

A friend is someone who'd probably visit you in prison.

A real friend is someone who'd send you a cake in prison, with a file in it.

A true friend is someone who'd prop himself up on that bunk and say to you "we really fucked up there, didn't we?"

Due

Help me out.

Some time ago, I was born. I'm guessing (as it was a while ago) it's because my parents had sex, or something.

I am told that my taxes are due.

DUE.

I have had the shiteist education in the world, from the state, and fuckall else. It seems to me that DUE means that I pull myself together, get up at 5 a.m., go 75 miles at about 90% tax on diesel, earn what I can screw out of someone, and that taxes are DUE.

I have googled "DUE". It says nothing like why I need to pay anything into a huge slushpot so it can go to administration of the NHS, paying for suits to strut about, talking shit, and fund the sort of arsebuckets who get on Jeremy Kyle.

Help me. I'm going postal.

Crapiler

I have a compiler which won't compile this. The error is at the bottom. It's perfectly valid ANSI C, apart from possibly the undeclared array sizes (but it makes no difference if I declare those).

So, C folk, how do I address these without incurring the compilers wrath? I have six other compilers which accept this, but this one won't. The dog.

Obituary

I'm writing this because I've not heard so much sycophantic bollocks in my life.

Bob Crow died.

He was a trade unionist, and a communist, who never did any good for anyone (apart from himself and his immediate family) in his whole life.

He believed in what he thought was right, because he came from a shit background. He was thick as planks.

To further his members' glorious pay cheques, he worked at least a dozen strikes of the tube service since 2006, making sure that the ordinary workers of London had to pay through the nose for their service, whilst tube drivers (who need no qualifications other than a heartbeat) took away the fat end of £50k p.a. each. And he took the fat end of £150k p.a. and spunked a council house.

The reason they tried to (and hopefully do) lay off the "ticket officers" is because the rest of the fucking union have milked the system for so much that it's unsustainable.

Bob Crow was a cunt in life, and remains so in death.

If you have a problem with that, like this bullshit about "he did what he believed in", read Mein Kampf or Stalin's memoirs.

Fuckwits.

Here is the apology you asked for >.<

I'm desperately searching this bucket of fucks for one that I give, in vain.

No, YOU fuck off.

SQL - the final solution

Two blogs ago, there was a problem. Now there is not. Thanks to Clive Eisen for telling me I was being a wanker.

Here is said solution:

Table:

DROP TABLE MAPELEMENTS;
CREATE TABLE MapElements (Auto int, Element int);
Insert into MapElements values(1,2);
Insert into MapElements values(1,3);
Insert into MapElements values(1,4);
Insert into MapElements values(1,5);
Insert into MapElements values(1,6);
Insert into MapElements values(2,7);
Insert into MapElements values(2,8);
Insert into MapElements values(2,9);
Insert into MapElements values(7,10);
Insert into MapElements values(7,11);
Insert into MapElements values(10,12);
Insert into MapElements values(10,13);
Insert into MapElements values(4,12);
Insert into MapElements values(5,13);

Procedure:

DROP PROCEDURE AlarmHierarchy

SET ANSI_NULLS ON

SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

-- =============================================

-- Author:

-- Create date: <14>

-- Description:

-- =============================================

CREATE PROCEDURE AlarmHierarchy

-- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here

@p1 int

BEGIN

SET NOCOUNT ON;

with cte as (

select auto, element from MapElements where

element = @p1

union all

select a.auto, a.element from MapElements a

INNER JOIN cte r

on a.Element = r.Auto

)

select * from cte order by auto, element;

END

C Code (to get hierarchy containing Element 12):

SQLINTEGER iAuto, iElement, dw;

sqlRet=SQLAllocStmt(hDBC, &hStmt);

if (sqlRet!=SQL_SUCCESS&&sqlRet!=SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO)
