Q: Same code blocks about function template compiled ok under g++ but error under VC6, why? I am reading the chapter "function templates" of C++ Primer 3rd edition, and when I tried to follow the example, I found the code almost the same as the book has encountered an error during compilation under VC6 but everything is ok under g++. I don't know why?
Here is the code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

template<typename T1, typename T2, typename T3>
T1 my_min(T2 a, T3 b)
{
    return a>b?b:a;
}

int main()
{
    int (*fp)(int, int) = &my_min<int>;
    cout<<fp(3,5)<<endl;
    return 0;
}

The error happened under VC6 appears like:
error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from '' to 'int (__cdecl *)(int,int)'
None of the functions with this name in scope match the target type

A: VC6 is an ancient compiler whose support for templates is woefully lacking, so it cannot cope with legal code in many circumstances. You should ditch it and download VS 2010 Express instead.

Last night I did something I'd thought about doing for months - I respecced Mardak's offspec from Feral to Balance. My pathetic bear/cat is now a pew pew laserchicken. Last week I ran ICC and it was terribly inconvenient when none of the three healers (myself, a holy paladin, and a priest) had a DPS offspec for Saurfang. We eventually had the holy pally switch to her undergeared warlock alt.
Fortunately for me, I've built up quite a collection of generic spellpower leather/cloth - pretty much everything possible from ToC (reg and heroic) and all the Icecrown 5-mans. I also had about 500 triumph emblems gathering dust, so I was able to buy an idol and four pieces of the t9 set. I had no idea what the set bonus was or how good it was, but oh well!
The drawback of having a such an arsenal of armor, trinkets and weapons to choose from was I had no idea where to start! I have a dizzying number of +spellpower, +hit, +crit and +haste combinations available to me, which for me is BAD. Too many choices make my brain shut down. I decided to just go with the t9 first, then equip random pieces until I was at the hit cap, then fill in the rest of the slots however. Probably sub-optimal, but it would do for now.
I downloaded the apparently-essential Squawk and Awe and took a few moments configuring the look, then threw some spells at a target dummy for a while until I got the hang of balancing the DoTs with wrath/starfire and tossing in starfire and treants whenever I can. Eclipse still confuses the hell out of me, but that seems to be normal.
Then came the laborious task of figuring out what keybindings I wanted to use for the spells. I'm very fussy about keybindings feeling natural, and I need a mental "connection" for a spell being a certain key to lock it into memory. For example, some of my hunter keybinds are Arcane Shot (shift-A), Concussive Shot (shift-C), and Disengage (shift-D).
I went with the obvious binds of Wrath to shift-W, and Starfire to shift-S. Moonfire is shift-Q, which while logical from an efficiency standpoint, is giving me problems because I have yet to think of a connection between the letter Q to a lunar laser beam. Shift-A finishes off the core spells, which is Insect Swarm, which I have convinced myself is "ant swarm". Silly, I know...but that's how my head works when it comes to keybinds.
A few more target dummy tests had me...cautiously optimistic. Considering my piecemeal gear and total lack of knowledge about my own self-buffs and procs, the damage seemed surprisingly decent. Granted, that's standing still, and I understand movement issues are huge detriments for Boomkins. But it'll be interesting to try the spec out in a heroic or two and see how things go. Honestly? I'm expecting a big juicy serving of FAIL, but we'll see!

I had no idea there were so many cute owl pictures out there. If only my moonkin DID look like that!
Lissanna just wrote a really good "how to moonkin" guide that I think is quite spiffy. It sounds like you've got the basics down anyhow, but it has pretty pictures!
Thanks for the tip, I'll definitely check out Lissanna's guide for some pointers!

Reddit, Tinder Co-Founders Back Peer-To-Peer Sports Betting App Seeking TN Entry
Mobile sports betting industry looks to make platforms more social
Brian Pempus
Published: Jun 21, 2021
A sports betting app backed by Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian and Tinder co-founder Justin Mateen has a pending application for sports betting in Tennessee, per a report from Bloomberg/Fortune.
The app is called Wagr, and it isn't live yet in any U.S. state. The startup reportedly is in a $4 million seed-funding round, with Ohanian investing in the company through his venture capital firm Seven Seven Six.
Wagr is looking to offer peer-to-peer sports betting in the Volunteer State and beyond. It also has sports betting paperwork pending in Virginia. ZenSports, another company eyeing a peer-to-peer product, is also looking to launch in Tennessee. There currently are seven sports betting platforms live in Tennessee.
State regulators have yet to approve peer-to-peer wagering, but that is expected to be in the pipeline after state officials made sure it could square with tax provisions in the 2019 Sports Gaming Act. While ZenSports plans to offer traditional house-versus-player sports betting in the meantime and alongside its peer-to-peer product, it's unclear if Wagr plans to do so as well.
Peer-to-peer involves gamblers creating and betting in markets between other users, with the platform taking a rake of some kind for facilitating or hosting the wagering.
Former Caesars Entertainment CEO Gary Loveman reportedly is an adviser for Wagr, founded last year.
Wagr will look to blend betting with features that resemble a social media platform. Its bare-bones website gives a small glimpse into what the app will look like.
From Wagr.us
It doesn't look especially innovative based on the animation on its website, but it seems like another important advance for the sports betting product. If it takes off, it seems likely competitors would look to clone the features for their respective gambling apps. That may actually already have started.
"It's about productizing what already goes down in everyone's group chat, which is wagers between friends about sporting outcomes," Ohanian told Bloomberg. "Right now the way these get resolved is through a Cash App payment or a Venmo payment on Monday, and surely we can do better."
If a bettor on its platform doesn't find someone he or she knows to bet with, Wagr will match the bettor up with someone else in the state looking for that wagering market. Wagr would not be able to match bettors from different states, as that would run afoul of the 1961 Wire Act. The inability to connect sports bettors between different states could be a major roadblock for Wagr's chances to capture market share.
Wagr reportedly plans to charge a fee to use its service. Traditional sportsbooks don't have fees for simple platform use, but instead generate revenue from the vigorish.
Wagr plans to limit peer-to-peer bets to $500. It appears that is less to do with responsible gambling and more in an effort to lean into marketing the platform to casual bettors, rather than diehards.
It doesn't appear Wagr has plans yet for online casino gambling, which traditional sports betting apps offer in markets that allow it. Sports betting is a low margin business, with online casino being more lucrative.
Trying to make gambling less asocial
The industry is well aware that social media will play an increasingly important role in attracting new players and keeping them engaged in the broader attention wars. A recent study from HPL Digital Sport found, unsurprisingly, that social media is a big factor in the overall betting experience for younger users.
"The social experience of sports betting for Gen Z and Millennials is heightened even more when looking at how they view social media content compared to the Gen X and Boomer markets," the study said. "Both Gen Z and Millennials (38%) noted social media that drives them to engage with the brand is a leading retention factor. Gen X (22%) and Boomers (14%) however don't see the value in social media and listed it at the bottom of their priorities."
DraftKings has made an early foray into combining social media with gambling, possibly in response to moves by a potential heavy hitter like Wagr. DraftKings, arguably the top online sportsbook in the nation three years out from the 2018 U.S. Supreme Court ruling, announced the "DK Social product" in May.
"The [DK Social] product is particularly unique because it amplifies our ability to create an interconnected ecosystem across our consumer products." pic.twitter.com/Z4OcSMCppv
— DraftKings News (@DraftKingsNews) May 7, 2021
The features on DraftKings appear to resemble what Wagr is trying to bring to market, though it looks like DraftKings has yet to formally pursue a peer-to-peer sports betting product, akin to what Wagr and ZenSports are trying to pull off. WynnBET, another sportsbook live in Tennessee, is also planning social media features on its platform. This could just be the start of a trend for the industry.

I was very well read during pregnancy. Living in a remote village gave me a lot of time to think about my body, my pregnancy and my baby. Without a community of women around me to share their stories I took to the internet and read pregnancy books online, I read academic articles, I read mommy-blogs, I lifted the information off the pages and swallowed it whole gorging myself on the words – desperate to connect with what was happening to me. And I did. I read the debates on all the topics and over the coming days, weeks, months and years I'm sure I will revisit the debates time and time again and I muddle my way through the days and nights with Bo.
I always knew that co-sleeping was something that I would dabble in. The thought of separating myself from my baby after her birth never sat right with me, I couldn't imagine us being apart after spending so long together. But western culture can breed fear, can mark something that seems so natural. During my reading the SIDS warnings and the tragic tales that I read about co-sleeping instilled a fear in me… started to doubt myself. I started to doubt my own instincts. But then I saw outlandish ads like the one below – and I started to question the government, indeed societies motives. How could something as natural as sleeping next to your child be so dammned by western society? Then I read more.
There are many cultures all around the world, in fact most (if not all) of the Eastern world – where co-sleeping is not only the norm, but it is the done thing. To not sleep with your baby would seem an odd and cruel punishment for both mother and child. In Indonesia where my husband is from the household shifts after a child is born. The father moves to the couch, the living room or the front porch to give space to the mother and child. To ensure night-time safety and bonding through the darkest, quietest hours of the day where mother and infant exist together in a beautiful circle of sleep, wakeful moments and tender touch that nurtures both.
There is a group of small communities in Japan where it is local custom to treat new mothers as if they too had just been born for the very first month of motherhood. Instead of tending fields, labouring and working from dawn to dusk the first month after birth is spent swaddled in blankets, babe in arms. The mother is expected to do nothing more than breathe, sleep, nurse and recover. Women tend on her, give her strength and love and tenderness… much as mothers do to their newborn children. The culture has a deep respect for the work of bringing a child into the world and the woman who nurtured, grew and birthed the miracle of life is honoured, loved and nurtured back.
Every woman should be given the respect, love and tenderness that allows them to be a newborn mother. To be swaddled with their child. To recover. To allow both mother and child to stay intertwined.
After the birth of baby Bo I spent three nights in hospital. Each of those nights Bo slept in the single hospital bed, in my arms, against my skin. It wasn't planned. It was what naturally occurred for us. I couldn't bear to have her anywhere except against my body. And we slept like that, calmly, quietly and without fear… as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Now I find that we are so in tune, Bo and I, that I wake moments before she does in the middle of the night. I nurse her calmly and our night times have no tears or screams or noises apart from the gentle murmurs of her sleeping and the stories I whisper to her in the dark of the night. I trust myself as her mother to protect her, to nourish her and to nurture her. I can smell her sweet milky breath on my skin and feel her little fingers as they grasp at my skin finding comfort in my touch. In the dim light I watch her dark eyelashes as her eyes get heavy and she drifts into sleep.
The co-sleeping debate is rife with fear and loss and tragedy in our Western world and pro co-sleeping articles often cause huge uproar. I have no judgement for mothers who choose to sleep their baby by a routine, in a cot, in a separate room, but instead I celebrate them for their conviction and their patience. At the end of the day we all do what works for OUR family, what works for OUR children and what comes naturally to US.
But for my growing family, this is what is right for us, it is one of the first cultural decisions we have made and in many ways it was probably the easiest… woven into our lives so naturally, in the little room in the back of my mothers home, is a little bit of the culture we left behind when we arrived back on Australian shores.
I get the 'you're creating bad habits' comment so often… But I know that Molly will move into her own space when she is ready.
Dearest Dragon - Great blog!!! i now co-sleep with my daughter. My husband was against it at first, cause of SIDS and what not but now we co-sleep and i absolutely love it! i know what you mean also by 'creating bad habits' but you know what, when she grows up she will not want to co-sleep, she will not want to be held, she will not want to be cuddled.. etc etc.. so.. i am milking it. she will move when she is ready i think!

Vanna was born on 18 February 1957 in Conway, South California to Miguel Angel Rosich and Joan Marie. Miguel was of Puerto Rican descent. He abandoned the family while Vanna was just few months old and so she was mostly brought up by her mother.
Later, her mother married Herbert Stackley White. The family then moved to North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, where Herbert worked as a real estate agent. Subsequently, Vanna was adopted by her stepfather and became Vanna White.
As a child, Vanna had no idea about becoming a television star nor did she watch television shows that regularly. Things changed when she had to undergo appendectomy at the age of 11. While recuperating, she began to pass her time watching television series.
One day as she was watching 'The Rat Patrol' she came to know that the part of Sgt Sam Troy was being played by her uncle Christopher George. She was elated at the discovery and decided that if his uncle could be on TV so could she.
After graduating from high school, Vanna Joined Atlanta School of Fashion in Atlanta, Georgia. During that period, she supported herself by taking up modeling assignments.
In 1979, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in acting. She took up a number of jobs to sustain herself. However, she returned home for a brief period and stayed back to take care of her ailing mother, who had been diagnosed with cancer, until her death, in 1980.

for a while now, i have gotten hooked on re-ment figures, and finally started collecting them! so first of all, i started with the Lovely Chocolate series from the Puchi Petite Collections~ *heart* re-ment, like gashapon, items are random and you will not know which set you are getting until you open it. but unlike gashapon, re-ment allows picky people like me, to control their luck! (hahah~) each set is sealed in a box, and that means you can shake and squeeze, and judge the weight and how many moving parts in there!
anyway, the first two sets were randomly bought from Action City (hobby shop) in 1Utama after DaiCon/EMiNA Roadshow recently. they were the Nostalgia Chocolates and Truffle Bears (as you can see, both are boxed - thinking that it was what i wanted).
but of course, my first choice was definately the Jewelry Box Chocolates! i had been so intent on getting my first choice, that i was willing to fork out RM110 to buy the FULL SET of ten, but kept holding back (thanks to financial restraints).
then guess what? recently when i went back to Action City in The Gardens, where i first saw the Lovely Chocolate series, it has been restocked up to around eight boxes! so of course i bought the one with a very fat box, which obviously MUST be what i wanted and true to my luck - i pried it open and i found the Jewelry Box Chocolates!
bleargh.. staying off chocolates for a while..
but they arent real chocolates! T^T they aint edible, but really good to look at, plus they dont give you sore throat nor fever (being non edible).

Who is Georges?
Georges Speaks!
Freedom for Georges Ibrahim Abdallah The Struggle Goes On
Protesters gather in solidarity with Georges Abdallah in Beirut. Abdallah originally should have been released from prison after 18 months. But his case soon took a very different turn, leading to his conviction and life imprisonment. (Photo: Marwan Tahtah)
Georges Abdallah: Exposing the Farce of French Justice
January 18, 2012	in Media Leave a comment
By: Othman Tazghart
It is an open secret that radical rebel Georges Abdallah, largely ignored by western media, was illegally sentenced to life in prison close to three decades ago. But French authorities continue to insist on keeping him behind bars, even after he has completed his prison term.
Paris – French authorities are insisting on keeping an ex-fighter in the Lebanese Armed Revolutionary Factions (LARF) in prison, despite the fact that 28 years have passed since he was first detained. This is a major breach of French legal procedures and the European Convention on Human Rights, which states that prisoners serving a life sentence must be released after serving a maximum of 18 years.
Georges Ibrahim Abdallah, who began his struggle as a member of the Syrian Social Nationalist Party (SSNP) and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), before joining the LARF, was arrested in Lyon on October 1984. At the time, the LARF was accused of a number of high profile commando operations, the most prominent of which were the assassination of the American military attache in Paris, Charles Robert Ray (18 January 1982) and the Israeli diplomat, Ya'acov Bar-Simantov (3 April 1982).
Initially, French authorities could not find enough evidence to charge Abdallah in connection with those cases. Apart from some leaflets showing he belonged to the LARF and a fake Algerian passport in his possession, the authorities were hard pressed to make a case against him. Therefore, when he came before the court for the first time in July 1986, he was indicted on only one charge, the use of a fake travel document.
In his memoirs, titled The Elysee Years, and published in 1988, Jacques Attali, the adviser to President Francois Mitterand, wrote on 6 March 1985: "We have no proof against Georges Ibrahim Abdallah. Therefore, the only thing we can charge him with is possession of a fake passport."
Abdallah originally should have been released from prison after 18 months. But his case soon took a very different turn, leading to his conviction and life imprisonment.
Isabelle Coutant-Peyre, who was a member of Abdallah's defense team (then headed by the notorious lawyer Jacques Verges), recalls the details of the "judicial conspiracy" against the Lebanese revolutionary, saying: "Abdallah was suddenly recalled to the court on 28 February 1987. We were surprised that he was facing different charges and new evidence which was not included in his file during the first trial. The prosecution claimed that weapons had been found in secret hideaways and flats belonging to Abdallah. This was taken as proof of his participation in the commando operations carried out by the LARF in France in 1982."
Coutant-Peyre adds: "The court did not hesitate in sentencing our client to life imprisonment, despite the protests of the defense team that the evidence against him was not included in the original trial and was fabricated later to convict him retroactively. This was a major breach of legal procedure." It was clear that Abdallah had become the victim of an intelligence conspiracy.
However, the details of the conspiracy plotted by the French DST (internal intelligence) were not revealed until the 10th anniversary of Abdallah's conviction. In his memoirs, titled The Fight Against Espionage: Memoirs of the Director of DST, the former director of French intelligence, Yves Bonnet, also revealed some of the threads of the conspiracy.
"We were able to gather enough information against Abdallah after the head of the anti-terrorist network, Jean Francois Clair, succeeded in recruiting an informant who was very close to the LARF," Bonnet wrote. He only referred to the informant at the time as "Jean Paul M." and indicated that he was a lawyer.
In July 2001, when Abdallah had already been in prison for 17 years, the lawyer Jean Paul Mazurier, a member of Abdallah's defense team, threw a bombshell that shook the French judiciary system. In a long interview with Liberation, he confessed to being the informant alluded to by Yves Bonnet. The lawyer revealed in detail how French intelligence had recruited him to spy on his client (which in itself is enough evidence to repeal Abdallah's sentence).
Mazurier added that the DST told him to make his client think that he shared his belief in revolutionary ideas and the struggle for the Palestinian cause. Abdallah began to trust him and brought him to meet his friends in the LARF in Lebanon. This made it easier for French intelligence to penetrate their group and gather evidence to convict Abdallah.
As a result of the scandal ignited by the confessions of the lawyer-informant, everyone expected Abdallah's defense team to raise a challenge to the court to overturn the conviction against its client. French law prohibits the use of lawyers, doctors, or journalists to spy on the accused and to gather evidence against them.
However, the defense team did no such thing. They decided to wait until 2002 to present a request to release Abdallah because his sentence had expired. Despite repeated rejections of these requests over a ten year period, the defense team has refrained from putting in a request to overturn the conviction on the basis of the espionage incident. EveryoneAl-Akhbar spoke to on the defense team refused to discuss the reasons behind this. One of them said: "That question should be put to Abdallah's comrades in the LARF."
As for the former director of DST, Yves Bonnet, he admits now that what happened was "an illegal intelligence conspiracy."
"We really did behave like criminals in this case," he said, adding, "I have to add my voice today to those who are calling for Abdallah's release. It is time to put an end to the gross injustice we committed against him."

We write to call for the release of Georges Ibrahim Abdallah the longest held political prisoner in Europe. He is being held in France since
136 signatures
Immediate release of Georges Abdallah
{to} The President of the French Republic
We write to call for the release of Georges Ibrahim Abdallah the longest held political prisoner in Europe. He is being held in France since 1984, accused of complicity in the execution of the American military attache in Paris, Charles Robert Ray (18 January 1982) and the Israeli diplomat, Ya'acov Bar-Simantov (3 April 1982).
Georges Abdallah was given a life sentence in a controversial hearing, which was considered a stain on the French legal system.
In 1999, Abdallah completed the minimum portion of his life sentence, but several parole requests were denied.
Despite the favorable juridical decisions on his release in 2003 and 2012 , he was not released by order of the U.S. government, civil party in the trial.
On 21 November 2012, the Sentence Enforcement Chamber of Paris (TAP) had approved Abdallah's request for parole on the condition that he be expelled from France. On 10 January 2013, the Court of Appeals in Paris upheld the TAP's ruling, and rejected the appeal submitted by the French Public Prosecution, settling the controversy regarding its final and unequivocal decision to release Abdallah.
On 14 January 2013 Abdallah was supposed to appear one last time before the French judge, to be read the terms of his conditional release, which requires him to be deported from France. But French Minister of Interior Manuel Val's refused to sign Abdallah's deportation order. The court postponed the release until 28 January 2013.
On 17 January 2013 the French prosecution requested a new appeal against the release of Abdallah saying that the deportation process should be done and secured before the court decision to grant conditional release.
On 4 April 2013 France's court of cassation, its highest court of appeals, ruled against his release on grounds that Abdallah's extradition would not allow for a one-year, electronically monitored parole period, compulsory for life-sentence convicts appealing for parole. His deportation from the country was ruled a necessary condition for his release.
Freeing all political prisoners is a crucial test for the French government to show it is genuinely committed to human rights standards.
France has kept Abdallah in custody for 30 years despite the fact that prisoners are legally allowed to ask for release on bail after spending 15 years in prison.
We call for his immediate release and his return to Lebanon, the country that is waiting for him.

It appears that there are two ways to kill a zombie movie, an over inflated budget and production delays. I'm sure there are more ways to do it, but it looks like those two things were the bullet to the head for World War Z 2.
The sequel, which was supposed to bring back Brad Pitt and be directed by David Fincher, has been cancelled by Paramount Pictures. More on the report below.

Vitamin D Level Determination in Serum
Posted: 12 February 2016 | YMC Europe | No comments yet
Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is essential for the human body. Low levels of vitamin D3 increase the risk of illness from a range of disorders. Babies, young children, pregnant mothers and old people are at a higher risk.
Traditionally, vitamin D deficiency has been associated with rickets, a disease in which the bone tissue does not properly form, leading to soft bones and skeletal deformities. However, research is revealing the importance of vitamin D in protecting against a host of other health problems.
What to Detect in Serum
The serum level of vitamin D is monitored to exclude deficiency symptoms. As vitamin D products and nutritional supplements often contain vitamin D3 and/or vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol), usually the concentration of 25-hydroxy vitamin D3 (25-OH-D3, calcidiol) is determined. 25-OH-vitamin D3 is the liver-generated storage form of vitamin D and provides a differentiated and meaningful impression of a patient's vitamin D level.
Challenging Separation
As vitamin D2, D3 and 25-OH-vitamin D3 are structurally similar substances, the (U)HPLC separation is therefore very challenging. Often, special columns in combination with complex eluent mixtures have to be used. Using YMC-Triart C18 ExRS makes the separation much easier!
Baseline Separation in less than 6 min
The use of an UHPLC YMC-Triart C18 ExRS column under isocratic conditions allows a baseline separation of these three substances in less than 6 min. THF/n-hexane (10/90) was used as mobile phase with a flow rate of 0.65 mL/min.

i just bought a sandisk ultrafit 64gb usb 3.0.
I have a problem and a question. I hope that any experienced member or sandisk staff can help me.
The problem is that the pen drive works but it´s way too slow in writing.
both with medium (mp3) and large files (video).
i have connected the pen drive both to a usb 3.0 d-link hub and directly on the motherboard but the result is the same.
the drive is fat32 formatted because i need this file system to use it in my car stereo.
I would like to know if this is a normal speed for this drive or anything can be wrong so i will return it to amazon.
is it normal that the as-ssd utility says 16k bad when I select the drive?
all my other usb drives has a green status there.
the drive has a red status led in front.
the led flashes when writing to the drive but it stays off when reading. is this behaviour normal?


The authorities were forced to open floodgates late Sunday, unleashing what they called "dangerous and high velocity flows".
In hard-hit Townsville cars were mostly submerged, with picket fences barely poking through waist-deep flood waters.
"We've never seen so much water in our lives," said local radio journalist Gabi Elgood. "You think there can't possibly be any more to come, but the rain just doesn't stop."
people have called emergency services for urgent help so far in Townsville.
Palaszczuk warned the communities face more difficulties ahead. Schools and courts remain closed, more rain is on the way and emergency warnings still in effect for more than a dozen rivers.
The town of Ingham, just north of Townsville, got over 10 centimetres of rain in just a few hours on Monday morning, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.
The region receives an average of about 2,000 millimetres of rain annually, but some towns are already on track to pass that.

Q: MySQL Unique Constraint based on column value Let's say I have a table like this:
CREATE TABLE dept (
  id     VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
  code   VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
  active BIT          NOT NULL,
  ...
);

Problem:
I want to add a unique constraint on code column. But it should be applied only if active is set to true (uniqueness should be checked only among active records). There can be many records with active = false and the same code so I can't use constraint on multiple columns.
What I tried:
I haven't found any references in the documentation proving that such constraint is possible, but I know it is possible in other databases using unique function-based indexes.
Of course I can write a trigger that will check the invariant on every add/update operation, but I hope there is more efficient solution.
I'm using MySQL 5.7.15.

A: This simply isn't possible in MySQL, I'm afraid.
I have come "close" to solving this in the past by having a uniquely constrained column which is nullable (replacing both the active and code fields).  When NULL - it's "inactive", when anything other than NULL - it has to be unique.
But that doesn't precisely solve the problem you're asking.  (Perhaps something better can be suggested if you could update your question to include the bigger picture?)
Otherwise read/write to the table through a stored procedure or - as you've suggested yourself - do something inelegant with triggers.

A: To solve your problem you need use CHECK clause but it MySQL don't support it. From doc:

The CHECK clause is parsed but ignored by all storage engines. See Section 13.1.18, "CREATE TABLE Syntax". The reason for accepting but ignoring syntax clauses is for compatibility, to make it easier to port code from other SQL servers, and to run applications that create tables with references.

So you can do this only by check data on application level or insert/update rows in this table by stored procedures.

A: I sorry this does not really a direct answer your question but:
Maybe you are better off with a different table design? The fact that something you want to do is not supported by your RDBMS is always a strong evidence that you are using it wrong.
Have you thought about creating a dept and an dept_history table, dept containing only the active records? That would solve your problem with the unique constraint.


Rome, Italy, Jun 28, 2016 / 06:03 am ().- When EWTN director James Kelty produced a film about the first Native American saint Kateri Tekakwitha, he didn't know that it would be recognized at one of the largest Catholic film festivals in the world.
The 2015 film "Kateri" was awarded the Capax Dei Foundation Award at the seventh-annual Mirabile Dictus film festival in Rome, Italy last week.
"I am very grateful to have received the Capax Dei award – it means 'space for God.' I think that says it all," Kelty told CNA.
The movie follows the story of Kateri Tekakwitha, a 17th century Mohawk native living in Canada who converted to the Catholic faith through the example of Jesuit missionaries.
"Kateri is the story of a woman of great force and power. Although she only lived 24 years, her life was so impactful with those she lived with, that by the time she died she was already a legend," Kelty said.
"We thought that Kateri would be a wonderful subject," he said, adding that her life beautifully illustrated the work of the early Catholic Church in North America.
"Kateri" took about two years to produce, which included research, writing, location scouting, filming and post-production. EWTN started the project in 2013 and it officially aired in 2015.
It was among over a thousand other films from all over the world entered at Mirabile Dictus. The festival's founder Liana Marabini was particularly touched by Kateri's story and called the film a beautiful expression of the Catholic faith.
"I was really impressed by the beauty of the script and the fact that Kateri was explained with all her story – she's very inspiring through her faith and her strength," Marabini told CNA.
"It has a very high technical quality and beautiful performing of the actors and beautiful places," she said.
According to Marabini, "Mirabile Dictus" is an expression from the bible that means "beautiful to say." She founded the international film festival in 2010 under the Pontifical Council for Culture as an outlet for Catholic filmmakers to unite faith and beauty.
"A film has something to say for our faith in order to improve our lives. The purpose of the festival is to improve people's lives through evangelization," Marabini said.
Kelty hopes the film will inspire young women and parents through Kateri's universal journey of heroism and adversity.
"Kateri is someone who had to find her identity in a very complex society and changing world, and that's what women today have to do," he noted.

AN: Massa Penalized in Catalunya Qualifying
Allpar News System

In a qualifying session where the top eight driver times were separated by less than a tenth of a second, team Ferrari drivers qualified fifth and sixth for Sunday's Spanish Grand Prix running at Circuit de Catalunya, near Barcelona. Spaniard Fernando Alonso qualified fifth with a time of 1 minute, 21.218 seconds, with Felipe Massa of Brazil just 0.001 seconds behind at 1 minute 21.219 seconds. Though he qualified sixth, Massa will start tomorrow's race in the ninth spot on the grid. Massa and Sauber's Esteban Gutierrez were handed three-place grid penalties by the Spanish stewards for impeding during Saturday's qualifying session. After review, race stewards said Massa had blocked Mark Webber of the Red Bull team during the second qualifying session. Gutierrez was also handed a three-spot penalty for hindering the progress of Lotus's Kimi Raikkonen during the first round. Gutierrez drops from 16th to 19th in the 22-car..

On a night where Jeff Mallette and Mike Kracker could have gained some ground, Mike Armour put up a number of his own: a $150 share of a skin.
Kracker and Mallette tied for first place with Mike Stiller and Jeff Leonard shooting a 4-under par 31 in the front nine better ball format, pushing the pair into "four figures" on the season-long money list.
But Armour offset their winning amount by adding a $150 share of a skin to his own total, pushing his lead to $400+ over Randy Skorman.
