Also, here's a list of blog posts from Laurenz Albe (the author of the OP post): https://www.cybertec-postgresql.com/en/author/cybertec_albe/ His blog posts are a great read, I'd recommend checking them out!


Laurenz (the author) was Postgres person of the week not too long ago: https://postgresql.life/post/laurenz_albe/


When I was 12, I found out about `shutdown /i`, which opens up a GUI where you can enter target IP addresses. Obviously I had to try it out in class. Each computer room in school had its own IP range, so it was easy to target all PCs in the current room. At the end of the class, I shut down all PCs - it worked!

I told a friend how I did it - of course he had to tell the others in class.. so the war began and everybody shut down their neighbors PCs!

We then invented "defense scripts" in batch, which basically ran `shutdown /a` in an infinite loop to cancel any shutdown requests.

In the end, the administrator disabled the shutdown command - the official reason was potential harm we could do concerning A-levels.

Good times.


There's still no way to use create-react-app with monaco out of the box with offline support (@monaco-editor/react includes calls to a CDN instead of using the bundled JS).


This can be accomplished by exporting to PDF


exporting to pdf is exactly what you don't want as an editor receiving files from a writer.


Unless you're already a big-name author you rarely get to choose. Docx will generally be an option, and if you're lucky a few other formats.


How is a copyeditor supposed to manage a PDF? PDFs are generally a huge no-no in submissions. (Source: I write short fiction & my short fiction has been published.)


I guess their editor can just cut and paste to Word if he really wants to make corrections.


> their editor can just cut and paste to Word if he really wants to make corrections

Is it sarcasm? I mean... make corrections/changes is what an editor does.


Hes, it was sarcasm. A write-only format is the worst way to send a novel to a publisher/editor.


We're using it at CYPEX to automatically make customer data consumable for our frontend.
