05 Nov '24

The MonetDB Foundation is pleased to announce the Aug2024-SP1 bugfix release of the MonetDB suite of programs. More information about MonetDB can be found on our website at <https://www.monetdb.org/>. For details on this release, please see the release notes at <https://www.monetdb.org/release-notes/aug2024/>. As usual, the download location is <https://www.monetdb.org/downloads/>. ### MonetDB5 Server - The server prints out an informative message for the case of a graceful termination. ### SQL Frontend - Improve casting to generic decimal type by choosing a better fit for precision and scale instead of defaulting to 18 and 3, respectively. - When for whatever reason the upgrade code produces an error, we now exit the server. Before the server would limp on with what is basically a broken database. - Improved the violation message of CHECK constraints when violated. It now includes the schema name of the constraint and the check clause. - Increase the buffer size used by hot snapshot from 64kiB to 1MiB, and make it configurable through setting 'hot_snapshot_buffer_size'. It must be a multiple of 512. ### Merovingian - Tweak socket parameters to simulate network activity on client connections. This prevents firewalls from killing connections that seem idle but are actually waiting for a long-running query. Can be controlled with a new 'keepalive' option to monetdbd. ### Bug Fixes - [7281](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7281): UDFs defined at compile time in a user schema should not become system functions - [7563](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7563): Unexpected result when using `IS DISTINCT FROM` in `VIEW` - [7567](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7567): creating remote table from subquery crashes the server - [7569](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7569): Column of temporary table changes when another is updated - [7570](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7570): BUG in the "str_to_timestamp" function - [7571](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7571): Crash when integer overflow in `ORDER BY` - [7572](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7572): column max length is not stored as specified and accepted at creation time - [7575](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7575): Incorrect BAT properties after mmapped BAT "leaks" to disk with restart. - [7576](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7576): unescaping UTF-16 code units goes wrong in json.text - [7577](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7577): Crash when using `CHECK` constraint - [7580](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7580): statistics optimizer handles date difference incorrectly - [7582](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7582): SIGSEGV when creating a SQL function with RETURN CASE WHEN EXISTS (..) - [7583](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7583): Query slowdown after deleting rows from large table - [7584](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7584): SO_KEEPALIVE should be configured sensibly - [7585](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7585): rel2bin_join: Assertion `sql->session->status == -10' failed. - [7587](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7587): Line/row numbers get out of sync with COPY INTO ..

The Impact of Gambling: Traditional vs. Online Methods
by Scott Mireles 27 Aug '24

27 Aug '24

Gambling has taken various forms throughout history, from traditional casinos and sports betting to lotteries and poker rooms. Each of these types of gambling offers its unique experiences, whether it be the thrill of spinning a roulette wheel or the anticipation of a card game. Slot machines, blackjack, and bingo are also popular choices, each with its own dedicated following. However, as technology advances, the gambling industry has shifted significantly toward online platforms, making it easier for people to engage in their favorite games from the comfort of their homes. In this evolving landscape, the role of online platforms like lokalno.mk has become increasingly important. They provide valuable information and updates on the latest trends in gambling, guiding players on where and how to engage in various types of gambling. As these online platforms grow, they contribute to a broader understanding of the industry and its environmental implications. One of the most significant developments in this regard is [url=https://lokalno.mk/kako-onlajn-kazinata-mozhat-da-pomognat-vo-zashtita-na-zhivotnata-sredina/]how online casinos reduce environmental damage [/url]. Traditional casinos require vast amounts of energy to operate, from lighting and air conditioning to powering slot machines and maintaining large infrastructures. In contrast, online casinos operate on virtual platforms, significantly reducing the need for physical resources. By eliminating the need for travel, online gambling also reduces carbon emissions associated with transportation. Furthermore, online platforms tend to adopt more sustainable practices, such as using energy-efficient servers and promoting responsible gambling through digital tools. As the world becomes more conscious of environmental issues, the shift towards online gambling represents a positive step in reducing the industry's ecological footprint.

Announcement: New Aug2024 Feature release of MonetDB suite
by Sjoerd Mullender 26 Aug '24

26 Aug '24

The MonetDB Foundation is pleased to announce the Aug2024 feature release of the MonetDB suite of programs. More information about MonetDB can be found on our website at <https://www.monetdb.org/>. For details on this release, please see the release notes at <https://www.monetdb.org/release-notes/aug2024/>. As usual, the download location is <https://www.monetdb.org/downloads/>. The Aug2024 documentation can be found [here](https://www.monetdb.org/documentation-Aug2024/). ## Aug2024 Feature Release (11.51.3) ### - The CMake configuration files for building extensions have now been included in the various MonetDB development RPMs and debs. - Removed upgrade code for versions before Jul2021. - The shared library (.dll aka .so files) now have the version number as part of the name. This should allow the building of compatibility versions that can be installed in parallel to the latest version. - Some of the Debian/Ubuntu packages have been renamed. The old monetdb5 names have been changed to plain monetdb, and libmonetdb5-server-* packages have been renamed monetdb-*. - The names of some of the provided RPM files have been changed. References to the old MonetDB5 name have been removed. All packages are now just MonetDB. ### Client Package - Msqldump now accepts --output and --outputdir options. When the --outputdir option is used, the dump is placed in the file dump.sql in the specified directory and all tables are dumped to separate CSV files. In this way it is feasible to edit the dump script by hand if needed, even for a large database. - The --table (-t) option of msqldump now accepts SQL-style % wildcard characters to dump all tables that match the pattern. E.g. -t %test%.%test% dumps all tables with 'test' in both the schema and table name. - Implemented interrupt handling in mclient. When using mclient interactively, an interrupt (usually control-C) stops whatever the client is doing. When editing a line, the line is discarded; when editing a second or later line of a query, the whole query is discarded; when a query is being executed, the server is asked to stop the query at its earliest convenience. Stopping a running query can only be done with an up-to-date server. All of this does not work on Windows. ### Mapi Library - Add new columns to sys.sessions. Column 'language' is usually 'sql'. Column 'peer' is the network address of the client (something like '[::1]:46558' or '<UNIX SOCKET>'). Columns 'hostname', 'application', 'client', 'clientpid' and 'remark' can be set by the client. Libmapi/mclient, pymonetdb and monetdb-java have been modified to fill in sensible default values. ### ODBC Driver - Extended ODBC Data Source Setup program on Windows with fields to specify optional Client Information such as Application Name and Client Remark. - Extended ODBC Data Source Setup program on Windows with fields to specify new TLS Connection settings. - Extended ODBC Data Source Setup program on Windows with a Test-button to quickly test connectivity to a MonetDB server. - ODBC now supports TLS. It can be configured through the following DSN- or Connection String attributes (canonical name / user friendly name): TLS / Encrypt = ON/OFF CERT / Server Certificate = PATH CERTHASH / Server Certificate Hash = sha256:HEXDIGITS CLIENTKEY / Client Key = PATH CLIENTCERT / Client Certificate = PATH - Several more connection properties have been made configurable: SCHEMA / Schema = NAME TIMEZONE / Time Zone = Minutes East Of UTC REPLYSIZE / Reply Size = NUMBER LOGFILE / Log File = PATH LOGINTIMEOUT / Login Timeout = MILLISECONDS CONNECTIONTIMEOUT / Connection Timeout = MILLISECONDS AUTOCOMMIT / Autocommit = ON/OFF SOCK / Unix Socket = PATH (unix only) - SQLBrowseConnect() adds On/Off suggestions to boolean settings and prioritizes the DATABASE attribute if it notices monetdbd requires one. Apart from that only UID/User and PWD/Password are required, all others have sensible defaults. ### Stream Library - ICONV support has been removed from the stream library. The server itself only needs UTF-8 support. The client (mclient) does have iconv support. - CURL support has been removed from the stream library. If support is needed, look at the source code in either streamcat.c or mclient.c. ### MonetDB Common - Various changes were made having to do with things like case-insensitive comparisons and converting to upper or lower case. Case insensitive comparison (i.e. the ILIKE operator) uses case folding which is similar to converting to lower case, but changes more characters, also sometimes to multiple characters (e.g. German sharp s (ß) compares equal to SS). - Made some changes to how BAT descriptors are allocated. They are now allocated in bulk, meaning fewer malloc/free calls during processing. - Removed macro BBP_cache and its associated code. Checking whether a BAT is cached (loaded in memory) can be done by checking the BBPLOADED bit in the BBP_status value. Getting a pointer to the BAT descriptor can be done by using BBP_desc. - The SQL transaction ID is no longer saved in the BBP.dir file. - Made some changes to the TIMEOUT macros. Most importantly, they now get a pointer to a QryCtx structure as argument instead of the timeout value. ### SQL Frontend - The "phash" column in the sys.storage() table now indicates whether a hash exists. If the hash is not loaded but there is a hash available on disk, the phash value is "true", but the "hashes" value is 0. - Added execution privilege on all sys.generate_series(first, limit) and sys.generate_series(first, limit, stepsize) functions to public, so all users can now call these table producing generator functions. - Extend CREATE USER MAX_MEMORY and ALTER USER MAX_MEMORY to accept strings of the form '10MiB', '10G', etc. - Extended view sys.sessions and function sys.sessions() with new columns: language, peer, hostname, application, client, clientpid and remark. - All users now have SELECT privilege on view sys.sessions, but non-admin users only see their own sessions. - Added procedure sys.setclientinfo(property string, value string) to allow the client application to set a specific client info property. - Added system table sys.clientinfo_properties that lists the supported client info properties and their associated column name in sys.sessions view. It contains property names: ClientHostname, ApplicationName, ClientLibrary, ClientPid and ClientRemark. - Extended sys.generate_series() to generate dates. Added 2 new functions: sys.generate_series(first date, "limit" date, stepsize interval month) and sys.generate_series(first date, "limit" date, stepsize interval day). - Added support for select exp, count(*) group by 1 order by 1; ie. using numeric references in group by clause. - Added support for GROUP BY ALL. This finds all expressions from the selections which aren't aggregations and groups on those. At least one aggregation must be specified. The ALL keyword can also be replaced by '*', so: GROUP BY *. - Added support for ORDER BY ALL. This orders on all columns of the selection. The ALL keyword can also be replaced by '*', so: ORDER BY *. - Removed the obsolete ANALYZE statement syntax options: SAMPLE nn and MINMAX. Both options have been ignored since release Jan2022. Now they are no longer accepted in the ANALYZE statement. - The ANALYZE statement can now be used in procedures, functions and triggers. - Make schema renaming more permissive. A schema can be renamed if it does not contain objects that are a dependency for objects outside the schema. If such dependencies exist, they are shown in the table sys.dependencies. - Add a DECIMAL AS clause to COPY INTO that configures the decimal separator and thousands separator for decimals, temporal types and floats. - Introduce IS [NOT] DISTINCT FROM syntax. The syntax allows two values to be compared. The comparison always returns boolean FALSE or TRUE never NULL. - SQL2023 feature: Introduce UNIQUE NULLS [NOT] DISTINCT syntax which allows for NULLS to be treated as unique, i.e. a column with this constraint can have one NULL value at most. - SQL2023 feature: Allow project and ORDER BY expressions on UNIQUE constrained columns when the primary key column is used in a GROUP BY expression. ### Bug Fixes - [7045](https://github.com/MonetDB/MonetDB/issues/7045): A value filtered in a subquery finds its way to a later filter in the outer query -

Essay writing is a fundamental skill for students and professionals alike, often used to express ideas, analyze concepts, and convey arguments. A well-crafted essay not only demonstrates your understanding of a topic but also your ability to communicate effectively. However, in the realm of essay writing, it's crucial to be aware of issues like plagiarism. Global plagiarism is a significant concern that affects writers worldwide, making it essential to understand and avoid it. Plagiarism is the act of using someone else's work or ideas without proper attribution, presenting them as your own. This unethical practice undermines the integrity of academic and professional writing. In the global context, plagiarism can lead to severe consequences, including legal repercussions and damage to one's reputation. To ensure your work is original and credible, it is vital to understand what constitutes plagiarism and how to avoid it.

By familiarizing yourself with these aspects, you can better protect your work from being unintentionally compromised. When writing an essay, several key elements should be considered to avoid plagiarism and ensure the originality of your work. First, proper citation is crucial. Whenever you refer to someone else's ideas, research, or direct quotes, make sure to cite the sources accurately according to the required style guide (e.g., APA, MLA, Chicago). This not only gives credit to the original authors but also strengthens the credibility of your essay. Additionally, paraphrasing is an effective technique to avoid plagiarism. Instead of copying text verbatim, rewrite the information in your own words while retaining the original meaning. This demonstrates your understanding of the material and allows you to incorporate it into your essay seamlessly. However, even when paraphrasing, proper citation is still necessary. Another important aspect of writing an essay is creating original content. Start by developing a clear thesis statement that outlines the main argument or purpose of your essay. Conduct thorough research to support your thesis, and use a variety of sources to provide a well-rounded perspective. By synthesizing information from multiple sources and presenting your unique analysis, you contribute original insights to the topic. Organizing your essay effectively is also essential. Structure your essay with a clear introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. Each paragraph should focus on a specific point related to your thesis, with evidence and examples to support your arguments. A well-organized essay is easier to follow and demonstrates a logical progression of ideas. In conclusion, essay writing requires careful attention to originality and proper citation practices. Understanding global plagiarism and its implications is vital for maintaining the integrity of your work. By following best practices for citation, paraphrasing, and content creation, you can produce high-quality essays that reflect your own ideas and insights.
