Somethings, I just forget…again and again. Yeah, I need to go through the W3C School’s SQL tutorial and learn more about it and databases in general, but for now, here are some helpful tips for people like me that rely on MySQL, but often fall into the same novice traps/problems.

I have gone back and forth with using rsync at home (with my Solaris machine), but I have to say this latest release is […]
