Well - at least it gives you the right to contact Oracle
and ask them all these questions personally :)

Basically -and it changes per country- it gives you the
right to:
- download patches (metalink.oracl e.com)
- ask questions to Oracle support (by phone, or via iTar:
metalink.oracle .com)
- upgrade versions (not sure you need support for that)

Here is my main question -- this java file creates code that is executed every hour, but once per week, the oracle server is brought down for backup. At that time, I get an error that looks like I have the wrong credentials for the database. For every subsequent attempt to run the hourly process, I am getting a broken pipe error,...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
