My take aways: * Reasons to migrate were: unresponsive support, inconvenient deployment, closed source, huge cost. * It took just 10 man-years to rewrite whole project from Oracle to Postgres (e.g. 10 developers, 1 year), which is amazing. * They benefited from Postgres data versioning, arrays and composite types. * They liked writing logic on PL/pgSQL more than on Oracle PL/SQL: reduced code size, increased test coverage.

Sep 30, 2016  I can not install Far Cry 4 from DVD. When i put the DVD number 1 to DVD-rom and menu is displayed, so i should by manual click at 'install' button, but there is no 'install' button there are buttons: play, pdf manual, read me, uninstall, end the End button. Delete the patch if it starts to auto-download when the disk is inserted. (via the Notifications > Downloads menu) Re-prompt updates by using the 'Check for Updates' option on the Far Cry 4 game icon.

* Easier deployment of changes due no library cache locks. Great thing for community is that Yandex now commited to Postgres, meaning it will get more testing and bug-fixes faster. Any idea if they support email 'distribution lists' or similar? I want something like test@example.com > delivered to list of users with a mix of email addresses at other domains. Gandi.net does this now (they call it a forwarding only address) but their included mailbox size is 1GB.

I've got a non-profit domain that needs more email storage. I tried Zoho last year after hearing multiple recommendations and it was nothing but problems with spam coming in and my outbound emails being incorrectly marked as spam.

I even had SPF + DKIM tested and working from the start! Not sure I would try them again after that experience. I've lived in SPB for a few years now (american expat), and there's.some truth to it. The idea of cops just grifting you non-stop is overstated; more likely than not they just wanna not have to do work. Even when it comes to checking documents for folks from the southern countries (uzbekistan, tajikistan, etc) most of the time the police try to speed stuff along so they can get back to smoking, having tea, or stopping off at a kebab place.

Even though everyone I know here calls the process 'bribing', it's greasing the wheels - in some ways, it's bad that it happens. At the same time though, everyone is allowed to participate in the bribing and whoever takes the bribes can and will settle for what they can get. I wouldn't say dishonesty is more pervasive - quite the opposite, most people are brutally honest, sometimes to a fault. When it comes to official things, it's true, you can grease the wheels and get preferential treatment. Certain problems can go away with a few well placed notes, and so on. Schools are a bit different too since the collapse of the Soviet Union.

From what I'm told, there's a lot of pressure from the state to ensure that students pass, so students will repeat through classes as long as necessary to pass them, and often professors will just give out the lowest possible passing grade to get rid of bad students. A little bit of cash will net you a better grade, which will get you access to better universities. Just as an outsider looking in and watching, I see it more as the same bad system that exists elsewhere but at least the system is open to everyone. No, I think you're conflating when I'm specifically talking about just getting better service. See there's another slight disconnect with service in Russia versus service in the US. You ever have someone go out of their way to make something easier or better for you as part of their job? Go the extra mile?
