What are partitions: partitions are database object, it is basically splitting large table into small multiple parts.

It is very helpful for getting quick query results.

It will help to improve database performance.

Types of partitions

Lore notes: Warfare

‘What i’d give for a lockable door’ → so either a) locks on the academy doors are too damaged to work (or the doors just aren’t there at this point given that we didn’t actually hear a door open at this point) or b) classroom doors at the academy aren’t lockable

Academy has a mess hall

Narvin is able to adapt the matrix to partition the academy → interesting to me because the academy is a physical space, what does this mean in terms of security, is it more that pandora won’t be able to use the matrix to track their movements within the academy, or is it a more physical defense (he does set up a forcefield later, but i can’t remember how at the moment)

Romana able to remove matrix access for others

‘I’ve been waiting spans here’ → so once again, how long are spans, is this actually that long of a time or is she just being impatient

They’re able to use an academy partition as a physical boundary → things like this really make me wonder what the actual line between physical and digital is with the matrix, because we’ve seen people go inside of it, but sometimes that just seems to be their consciousness and sometimes that seems to be their physical body as well, and here we have narvin using it to create a physical barrier, and in war room i think they use it as a means of transport, but also it’s the big computer/database that all time lord minds get uploaded to

Time lords use solar energy for at least some things

Janartis has a different accent → it’s always interesting to me when someone has a different accent since most of the time lords we meet have the same accent, is it a case of most time lords come from a specific region of gallifrey and therefore have the same accent, or do most time lords put on the ‘time lord accent’ to fit in (i know there’s stuff with uk accents, with certain ones being associated with class, but i am american, so i don’t actually know the details regarding that, but given the everything about the time lords, i’m sure you could make a comparison there)

Stasers have stun and kill settings

Academy partition allows people through based on their biodata imprints

‘Don’t touch me darkel’ → see i know this is done so she can plant the bomb, and the reasons for narvin not wanting her to touch him are pretty obvious, but i do wonder what the general cultural attitude towards touch here would be, like is is normal to put your hand on someone’s arm or something, we know that they don’t do handshakes, but is there any normal level of casual touch among time lords

Bug bomb → bomb that burrows under the skin → interesting use of the word burrow here (at least in my opinion), makes it seem like it’s almost alive (again, more with time lords and having living technology)

And it seems to continue burrow

Can only be activated when the person it is in is concious

Apc net chamber → thing that happens

‘And charged for his services’ → the way romana says this makes me think that that isn’t the typical thing on gallifrey

They are able to use technology to infect a time lord with a virus → something something time lords are basically computers

Medical station able to be isolated at what just seems to be the press of a button

There are also protective suits outside the station

‘Artron energy, which is itself technological, and barely distinguishable from time lord biology’ → so artron energy seems to be not quite a part of time lords biology, but still a part of them (narvin’s comments about it being found in time lord brains from the last episode), but is also incredibly similar to time lord biology anyway, which is to say either time lord biology is incredibly technological or time lord technology is incredibly biological (or something in between where the lines of both blur together)

‘Can you shut down all respiratory systems’ → implication that time lords are able to have precise control over specific systems in their bodies

Medical units have stasis cabinets

You can make mental contact without the other party consenting, the use of saying ‘contact’ before seems to be more to establish consent than anything else, though here pandora obviously doesn’t have Romana's consent before she says it, so it’s more like a warning of what she’s about to do (and something to tell the audience what is going on), but we also see romana doing this with wynter, so i wonder if it’s a case of that being a thing that is done, so even in situations where they are not actually asking for consent to enter someone's mind, saying contact is so ingrained into how that is done that they sort of just say it without question

‘You will in effect be moving through the matrix to get to your destination’ → so it can be used as a method for travel across physical spaces

‘The matrix is the greatest repository of time lord knowledge’ → one thing about me is i will write down descriptions of the matrix whenever they come up

Also romana insisting that it will remember pandora despite her being erased, something something knowledge/memories can never truly be destroyed (kind of goes in line with how when characters get their memories erased they are still able to tell that something is missing even if they don’t know that they had memories erased) (also interesting if you add the line about the matrix sometimes just forgetting things that it doesn’t deem as important)

‘You are an anomaly, and we time lords stamp them out’ → time lords made themselves responsible for fixing/getting rid of time anomalies

Genetic links between time lords can allow them to possess each other (it’s a little wild to me that this only comes up twice, like i get it, it’s a pretty big plot thing to have someone get possessed, but still, although it’s kind of interesting that when we see this happen with valerian and rassilon there is seemingly no way for valerian to fight back like we see romana do, though maybe that is a consequence of there being two romana’s at once so the present one could help the past one)

Covid's constant rapid mutation is driving a continuing pandemic. "Let 'er rip" is costing lives, money, and medicine when common-sense and highly-effective nonpharmaceuticals like masks, air filtration, and ventilation are readily available yet rarely implemented.

Highlights •There were trends of mutations in the S protein of the omicron SARS-CoV-2 variant. •The studied ARVds exhibited adequate solubility, distribution and partition coefficient. •ARVds molecularly interacted with target sites of mutations.

Abstract The multiple mutation of the spike (S) protein of the Omicron SARS-CoV-2 variant is a major concern, as it has been implicated in the severity of COVID-19 and its complications. These mutations have been attributed to COVID-19-infected immune-compromised individuals, with HIV patients being suspected to top the list. The present study investigated the mutation of the S protein of the omicron variant in comparison to the Delta and Wuhan variants. It also investigated the molecular interactions of antiretroviral drugs (ARVd) vis-à-vis dolutegravir, lamivudine, tenofovir-disoproxilfumarate and lenacapavir with the initiation and termination codons of the mRNAs of the mutated proteins of the omicron variant using computational tools. The complete genome sequences of the respective S proteins for omicron (OM066778.1), Delta (OK091006.1) and Wuhan (NC 045512.2) SARS-CoV-2 variants were retrieved from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database. Evolutionary analysis revealed high trends of mutations in the S protein of the omicron SARS-CoV-2 variant compared to the delta and Wuhan variants coupled with 68 % homology. The sequences of the translation initiation sites (TISs), translation termination sites (TTSs), high mutation region-1 (HMR1) and high region mutation-2 (HMR2) mRNAs were retrieved from the full genome of the omicron variant S protein. Molecular docking analysis revealed strong molecular interactions of ARVd with TISs, TTSs, HMR1 and HMR2 of the S protein mRNA. These results indicate mutations in the S protein of the Omicron SARS-CoV-2 variant compared to the Delta and Wuhan variants. These mutation points may present new therapeutic targets for COVID-19.

Table Partitioning vs. Partitioned Views

In SQL Server, optimizing database performance is crucial for handling large datasets efficiently. Two powerful techniques for achieving this are table partitioning and partitioned views. While both approaches aim to improve query performance and manageability, they have distinct use cases and considerations.

As much as I'm tempted to know about them all, I'll settle for one now.

Bound by Blood and Fate (it's gonna be my jam, i already know it)

hellooooo sam <3 here’s a lil snippet from the intro! i am so excited to put this one out!

ask me abt my wips <3

The soft hum of your computer’s cooling fan was the only sound in the room, a steady rhythm against the midnight silence. A single desk lamp cast a weak, yellow glow over your workspace, highlighting the clutter of empty coffee cups and discarded flash drives.

On the screen, strings of code scrolled past in a blur, incomprehensible to anyone but you. You’d been at this for hours, unraveling layer after layer of encryption, each more complex than the last. Erebus was a labyrinth, and you were determined to reach its center.

Your fingers hovered over the keyboard, a sliver of doubt creeping in. What if the whispers about Erebus were true? What if decrypting this database meant signing your own death warrant?

You shook your head, forcing the thought away. Focus. The Syndicate wasn’t paying you to hesitate. If you cracked this, you’d be untouchable—a ghost in a world of hunters.

A soft chime broke your concentration.

A message popped up on your secure chat window:

Anonymous: You’re out of time. They’re coming.

Your breath hitched. It wasn’t like The Syndicate to be dramatic. Their warnings came with cold precision, not ominous riddles.

You typed back quickly:

Nyx: Who?

No response.

The back of your neck prickled. You reached for your burner phone, flipping through your contacts to find your handler’s number. It rang three times before cutting off—straight to voicemail.

Not good.

You stood and began packing. Flash drives, hard drives, even the half-decrypted file of Erebus—everything went into a black duffel. The uneasy silence in the room had become deafening. You paused for a second, straining your ears.

Then you heard it. A faint metallic click at the front door.

Someone was picking the lock.

Your heart slammed into your ribs. Moving on autopilot, you killed the lights and grabbed the nearest weapon—a folding knife—tucking it into your sleeve. The glow of the laptop cast faint shadows across the room, and you slipped behind a partition, holding your breath.

San Antonio Website Hosting: Finding the Right Solution for Your Business

In today’s digital landscape, having a reliable web hosting provider is as crucial as a compelling website design. Whether you’re launching a personal blog, running a small business, or managing a large-scale enterprise in San Antonio, the choice of a hosting provider can make or break your online presence. For businesses in San Antonio, website hosting tailored to the needs of the local market can offer unique advantages. Here’s a comprehensive guide to understanding and selecting the best website hosting solutions in San Antonio.

What Is Website Hosting and Why Does It Matter?

Website hosting is the service that allows your website to be accessible on the internet. It involves storing your website’s files, databases, and other essential resources on a server that delivers them to users when they type your domain name into their browser.

Key factors such as uptime, speed, and security depend heavily on the hosting provider. Without reliable hosting, even the most well-designed website can fail to perform, leading to lost traffic, reduced credibility, and lower search engine rankings.

San Antonio’s Unique Needs for Website Hosting

San Antonio is a growing hub for businesses, startups, and entrepreneurs. The city’s vibrant economy and diverse industries demand hosting solutions that cater to various needs:

Local SEO Benefits: Hosting your website on servers based in or near San Antonio can improve website load times for local users, boosting your local search rankings.

Customer Support: Local hosting providers often offer faster and more personalized support, making it easier to resolve technical issues quickly.

Community-Centric Services: San Antonio businesses often benefit from hosting providers that understand the local market and tailor their offerings to the unique challenges faced by businesses in the area.

Types of Website Hosting Available in San Antonio

Shared Hosting

For small businesses or personal websites with limited traffic, shared hosting is a cost-effective option. Multiple websites share the same server resources, making it affordable but potentially slower during high-traffic periods.

VPS Hosting

Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting offers a middle ground between shared and dedicated hosting. Your website gets its own partition on a shared server, providing better performance and more customization options.

Dedicated Hosting

This option gives you an entire server dedicated to your website. It’s ideal for high-traffic sites or those needing advanced security and performance features.

Cloud Hosting

Cloud hosting uses a network of servers to ensure high availability and scalability. It’s a flexible option for businesses expecting fluctuating traffic.

Managed Hosting

For those without technical expertise, managed hosting takes care of server management, updates, and backups, allowing you to focus on your business instead of technical maintenance.

Factors to Consider When Choosing Website Hosting in San Antonio

Performance and Uptime

Ensure your hosting provider offers at least 99.9% uptime to keep your website accessible around the clock. Fast loading times are critical for user experience and SEO rankings.

Security Features

Look for hosting providers that offer robust security measures, including SSL certificates, firewalls, DDoS protection, and regular backups.

Scalability

Your hosting solution should be able to grow with your business. Choose a provider that offers flexible plans to accommodate increased traffic and resources as needed.

Customer Support

24/7 customer support with knowledgeable staff is invaluable for resolving technical issues promptly. Many San Antonio-based hosting companies offer localized support to cater to their clients better.

Cost and Value

While affordability is important, don’t compromise on essential features. Compare the cost with the value offered, including storage, bandwidth, and additional tools like website builders or marketing integrations.

How Local Hosting Supports San Antonio Businesses

Local hosting providers understand the pulse of the San Antonio market. They can offer tailored solutions for restaurants, retail stores, service providers, and tech startups. By prioritizing local needs, such providers enable businesses to thrive in a competitive digital landscape.

Tips for Maintaining Your Hosted Website

Regular Backups: Protect your data by ensuring automatic and manual backups are part of your hosting plan.

Monitor Performance: Use tools to analyze website speed and resolve bottlenecks.

Stay Updated: Keep your website software, plugins, and security features up to date to prevent vulnerabilities.

Conclusion

Choosing the right website hosting provider in San Antonio is a critical step toward building a successful online presence. From understanding the local market to evaluating hosting types and features, there are numerous factors to consider. By selecting a reliable provider and maintaining your hosted website effectively, you can ensure your business stands out in San Antonio’s competitive digital landscape.

Whether you’re launching a new venture or upgrading your current hosting solution, San Antonio offers a wealth of hosting options to meet your unique needs. Make the smart choice today to power your online success!

Parp rewrite update + DB downtime talk

So! Time for the update.

Progress this month has been sorta slow due to an issue Hex has found in getting the data library to work with the rewrite code. Specifically, logins and user accounts are being huffy about things. If it keeps up for another month, the plan is to move forward with a different type of library type in order to get things back on track. In prep for this, Hex has also been testing out new database style that'll work better with the options we're considering, namely mongoDB.

This has multiple uses. For starters, the data on parp, as it stands, is partitioned horribly. Shit takes up more space than it should on what is effectively every level. This was fine, over on AWS. But we're not on AWS anymore, so we can't bank on just throwing money at the issue to buy the power we need.

On the topic of Dreambubble.

There's a certain comfort in knowing that DB is just as unstable as her little sister, and a certain level of confusion in knowing that this site used to have like 1000 people on it a day with few issues. On that note, we don't have a damn clue what happened today. One of those stringy-ass 2013-era tendons just sorta snapped, I guess. But Hex is hard at work on it so we can get everything back on track! Hopefully, we'll find a fix soon. But for now, stay tuned!

Cheap VPS hosting providers

The majority of small businesses would begin their websites with a shared web hosting service. On the other hand, there will come a moment when your website expands beyond the capabilities of a shared hosting setup. If you do not require the more expensive enterprise-scale dedicated hosting, you should think about purchasing a cheap VPS hosting service instead. Despite the fact that the physical server is shared, virtual private server hosting makes use of virtualization technology to create the illusion of having your very own dedicated server. A virtual private server (VPS) provides the benefits of dedicated servers in cheap price associated with dedicated hosting. For the purpose of assisting, you in selecting the most suitable solution and web hosting service provider for your website, we will first explore what virtual private server (VPS) hosting is, how it operates, and who the most reliable web hosting companies are. 

What is VPS hosting?

Customers are typically required to begin the process of constructing a website or web application by establishing a database, configuring a web server, and adding their code. The administration of physical server hardware can be a difficult and costly job. In order to effectively address this issue, web hosting service providers are responsible for managing the hardware that makes up the server and enabling users to make use of these resources. When a user subscribes to virtual private server hosting, they are provided with a virtual machine that is equipped with dedicated resources and is ready for them to deploy and configure their website or application. Customers who use virtual private server hosting are able to concentrate on their websites or applications without having to waste time and effort dealing with the physical servers that are hosting their code due to this arrangement. The performance of their websites is guaranteed to be secure, dependable, and constant when using best VPS hosting service.

How does VPS hosting works?

The operating system of the server is layered with a virtual layer that is installed by your best web hosting service provider upon the server. In order to create unique virtual machines, or VMs, this virtual layer partitions the server into independent compartments that are dedicated to each user. The operating system, software, and other necessary tools for hosting your website can be installed within each compartment according to your preferences. A control panel such as cPanel, Linux, and MySQL are some examples. Through the utilisation of these virtual computers, you will be ensured access to resources. The speed of your server is not dependent on the number of resources that are utilised by other websites that are hosted on the same server, in contrast to shared hosting.

Through the use of virtualization, an affordable VPS hosting service provider provides you with the opportunity to experience the feeling of having your very own dedicated environment. Your website is housed in a private container that is also isolated, and it has resources that are specifically designated for you. This indicates that your website is housed within a protected container of server resources, including memory, disc space, CPU cores, and other resources. Not a single one of it is required to be shared with other people.

What does virtual private server hosting consist of?

Best VPS hosting services can be broken down into three primary categories.

Managed virtual private servers

When you use fully managed virtual private server hosting, the amount of time, effort, and technical expertise you need to devote to maintaining your server is reduced. To allow you to focus entirely on expanding your company, the managed virtual private server hosting provider will handle all of the server-related chores, such as installing software, performing maintenance, and updating the core software. Managed virtual private server hosting provides a hands-free method of server management.

Semi-managed VPS services

The semi-managed virtual private server hosting service is a compromise between the managed and unmanaged hosting options. In addition to providing the same fundamentals as unmanaged hosting, the hosting firm also offers support and installation of core software.

Unmanaged VPS hosting

The web hosting service provider responsible for all of the server responsibilities and maintenance work when the company uses unmanaged hosting or self-managed hosting. The only thing that an affordable hosting service provider is responsible for managing is the physical server and its availability. When it comes to managing server memory, operating systems, and other server resources, unmanaged virtual private server hosting necessitates either experience in the field of technology or dedicated resources inside the organization. Unmanaged virtual private server hosting is more suitable for well-established companies that possess the requisite information technology capabilities.

Advantages of VPS hosting?

The cheap VPS hosting plans provides the features listed below. However, if you are currently using a shared hosting service provider and a dedicated server is outside your financial means, you do not need to be concerned about these issues.

Eliminate mistakes on the server.

When your website expands, you will need to add more material or more complex functionality to it, which will result in a rise in the amount of processor or memory that is required. This may result in server faults on shared hosting, such as errors involving the internal server or errors with the service being unavailable. The performance of compute-intensive websites, on the other hand, is significantly improved by virtual private server hosting since these websites no longer have to compete with other websites for processing power. In addition, if you are ready to expand your business, you may use virtual private server hosting to migrate to a new virtual machine that has a higher processing capability.

Manage a greater volume of website traffic.

Cheap shared hosting could be a good option for you while you are just getting started, but as the amount of traffic on your website increases, the performance of your website might begin to suffer. The length of time it takes for pages to load and the number of times visitors have to wait could rise as your website expands and the number of visitors increases. On the other hand, if you use virtual private server (VPS) hosting, your website will perform better than if you use shared hosting because it is able to process a greater number of requests.

Applications can be customized.

An affordable VPS hosting provides greater control over the environment of your web server than shared hosting. This allows you to install software and customizations that are unique to your needs. It is also easier to integrate with other applications, such as customer relationship management or bookkeeping systems, when using virtual private server hosting. It is also possible to install firewalls and other individualized security measures on your system.

➵  BIOGRAPHY

With a name like his, Hieronymus did not get to live a day of his early life without being reminded that his parents were rich, obnoxious, white, Anglo Saxon snobs. It didn't help that the school library had his grand father's name on it, or that his mother sat on the city council board and doubled as head of the PTA while his father increased the number of properties owned in town each year that went by.

To be frank, all that meant for young Hieronymus was that he never got to really be a child doing childish things. His parents wouldn't have allowed any of that to tarnish their picture perfect family. As such, their house was always pristine, not one toy in sight, not even when his brother and sister joined the family. Not that they had a lot of time to play anyways. Hieronymus, who was not made for sports was taught the piano, his younger brother grew up with a tennis racket attached to his hand, and his sister soon found herself with a pair of ballet shoes to complete the perfect image the Montgomerys crafted for themselves.

In town, people were very kind to them although they most likely envied the family more than they appreciated it. He hated the attention they got, but he had to admit that being the eldest Montgomery made his life easier. Because otherwise, what would have happened to him ? He'd always been a head shorter than most people his age, scrawnier, and it didn't help that he spent most of his free time rehearsing his piano partitions and drawing in the margin of his copybooks. Their mother often had other women over in the afternoon for tea and to update her database of local gossip, and they made sure their little boys were friends with him and his brother. It was a shame that children were a lot more talkative and honest than adults, and that Harry's mother understood that all too well. One might say this was his first experience with communication, politics and espionage, or one of the only times when he felt some sort of connection with his mother. She seemed to really appreciate it when he repeated everything that had been said to him and Harry liked the attention she gave her then.

She was oh-so-proud of him for being academically gifted, and there wasn't a single soul in Morgantown that didn't know of him getting into Harvard or later on, about his brother getting a scholarship for tennis and his sister getting into MIT (even though they'd have rather had her get into Julliard). After that, things were rather simple for him. He made more connections in the Ivy League and graduated with grades that would both make it impossible for him to ever be unemployed. He starts off assisting a NYC editor-in-chief for a worldwide publication . His parents think he can do better, and he does. He finds a job with a tech company CEO. The guy is a douchebag, but it's not until he meets Emma Kennedy and she offers him a job that he dares to quit working for the guy. She pays for rent, and she's kinder too. It puts him one foot closer to politics. He supposes he's gotten really good at the job, so good that sometimes, he wonders if he couldn't do more than that.

➵  WANTED CONNECTIONS

PAST RELATIONSHIPS | Hieronymus has dated a few women in the past although each of his relationships failed because they were too platonic / he made them feel unwanted/undesirable. Girls, it's not you, it's him. Maybe they remained friends. COLLEGUES | People who work at the court house. Judges, lawyers, prosecutors, etc. FRIENDS | He connects easily with others, and his attention to details is always used in a positive way. If you mention once that you adore a specific dog breed or a color, he'll remember, which makes for quite thoughtful presents and birthday cards. HARVARD ALUMNI | Ivy league connections go a long way in this cruel world. Maybe they haven't spoken ever since graduation, maybe a friend of a friend told you about Harry/Harry about you, maybe it's Maybelline. CAT SITTER | What the title says. Come look after his precious baby : Bartholomew.

➵  HEADCANONS

Voted most likely to show up at any given place without an hair out of place., whether it rains or there's a wind storm hitting the city. He refuses to wear something that hasn't been ironed and can't stand most synthetic fabrics either.

His extensive collection of suits takes up a great part of his dressing. He would never be able to pay for these should he be paying rent for his apartment and is very grateful for the way Emma treats him.

This being said, living so close to her means he rarely gets a proper day off. He's fine with that, for now. It's not like he's got too much going on in his life anyway.

Why High-Availability LPAR Hosting Providers Are Essential for Mission-Critical Workloads

Uptime isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity. That’s why high-availability LPAR (Logical Partitioning) hosting providers are becoming the backbone of resilient IT infrastructures for enterprises that rely on IBM mainframes and Power Systems environments. LPAR technology enables organizations to partition a single physical server into multiple isolated environments, each capable of running its own operating system and workloads independently. But when these environments host mission-critical applications such as banking systems, ERP platforms, or healthcare databases, availability becomes non-negotiable. High-availability LPAR hosting providers offer more than just virtualization. They deliver:

Redundant infrastructure to prevent single points of failure

24/7 monitoring and support to proactively manage risks

Disaster recovery integration for seamless failover

Optimized resource scaling without downtime

Whether you’re migrating workloads, modernizing legacy systems, or supporting hybrid IT strategies, partnering with a reliable LPAR hosting provider ensures your operations stay online at all times.
