Not sure if he's visiting but not posting, or gawn.
Or laying comatose in a gin induced puddle of his own vomit.
Probably the latter. @nagy-vilmos any comment?

In a couple of days in The Netherlands there is a Google Summit going on.
I filled in the form and got an email they would contact me. Two days later my colleagues did the same and within 5 days after subscription the received the mail I never got. They are allowed to go.
Last Friday I contacted Google (their email really stated they would contact me) and they lost my subscription. Serious. Google? They have a summit for database guys like me and the cannot register the subscriptions of a DBA? Today I finally got the email and that said:
"
Hello Herman,
Thank you for your interest in attending Google Cloud Summit Amsterdam. Registration for this event is now closed, but please keep an eye out for future events where you can learn all about the potential of the cloud.
We hope to see you next time,
The Google Cloud Team
"
I think i'll never see them. They can't register my subscriptions!!
BTW: if their data is correct Amsterdam is the last one in a row....Google Cloud Summit

Clearly they are afraid of you

the good thing is that if my software ever fails to insert a record I can state that even Google fails in this field(s)

All this demonstrates is that they've already got all your personal information, so they don't need to lure you into spiderwebs to get more.

I'll bet they still have that email however, since this is something they can mine the crap out of. Their own forms? Meh.

Here in the UK, we are reminded every other week on TV to switch our energy suppliers often to make sure we get the best deal. But ... it's a PITA.
Then I saw Dragons Den, and a bunch that promise to do all the work for you, and thought "OK, lets see..." and they did very well - they find a better deal, they do the switch for you, I'm happy and several hundred pounds a year better off.
Until today when I get an email from them:
Quote:
Hi Paul,
You may have heard recently that Spark Energy has gone out of business.
no, what? You jest ... a quick search and Spark Energy collapse leaves 290,000 without supplier | Business | The Guardian[^]
Oh fer Elephant's sake ... I only just switched to those buggers! Anyone want to pay me to use their competitors services? I may be a kiss of death here....

Not a problem - they switched me to the new company, and they are already switching me to another at the same rate.

This is one of the reasons I don't switch bank accounts. I desperately want to but I just don't trust these automated systems not to **** it up. When you make a living writing these kinds of systems the more complex you know it is the less confident you are that their developers have done it right lol
How to auto switch bank account. Been given this task and don't know how to start, plz send codes it's urgent.

A couple of years ago I switched to Nationwide. Everything went according to plan and timescale, and I now have a better deal than before.
