Hi newsgroup.
Sites which host a large download archive (think download.com) often
times don't give you a desired file directly, but redirect you to a
page, where you wait usualy 5 secs, and then the download appears..
What is the benefit of that? Why not offer the file immediately.. is
it for performance? I ask, because I am currently working on a site,
which will host too some sort of download-archive. My current design
is to give the file immediately out, without the 5 sec wait on a
redirection page.

Hello PS*******@mail. nu,
To avoid file to be downloaded directly by download managers and to get $
from the shown commercials
When u got on the new page the number of commercials are shown and you need
to wait - examine this ads :) and maybe clicking on smth :)

It allows to do whatever you want programmaticall y (for example a big site
could perhaps switch to one fo the mutiple download servers or something)
before sending the file to the browser...

I want to do some tricky text file manipulation on many files, but have
only a little programming knowledge.
What are the ideal languages for the following examples?
1. Starting from a certain folder, look in the subfolders for all

Hi,
I am trying to build a tool that analyzes stock data. Therefore I am
going to download and store quite a vast amount of it. Just for a
general number - assuming there are about 7000 listed stocks on the two
major markets plus some extras, 255 tradying days a year for 20 years,
that is about 36 million entries.
Obviously a database is a logical choice for that. However I've never
used one, nor do I know what benefits I would get...

If I am grabbing a lot of rows (say 10,000 from SQL) would I be helping
or hurting the network by using a DataReader? I would think helping
because it's really only returning 1 row at a time, but I'm not sure.
Are there good articles out there that explain how the DataReader does
this as well as any that discuss performance problems/benefits?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
