Because when you have 10 cm every 3 years (and no 20 or 200 at all) it's shame not to give the children to play with...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is (V).

I am looking for making a database program by myself, but I don't want to end up in a dead end for some reason, so I need ton of examples and even better the entire source code of a sample database program. Any good book for this?
I don't care about the theory. I just want to know how to make a db program and then focus on using design patterns to improve the code.
Also, I am looking for a good book on Java Swing so I end up knowing all the ins and outs of Java Swing. I want tons of examples.

How will you improve it if you don't know what the code your looking at is meant to do?

...when 1 GB was a phenomenally huge amount of disk space (my first hard disk was 20MB!)
Now Windows gives me a red "running low on disk space bar" and I still have 3GB left!!!

I hit that with 10 GB left (on a 1 TB drive).
That was caused by the search index file growing to 647 GB in size due to a bug in the automated defrag and another bug in the way Windows handles and limits the sizes of some system files, like the search index (can't remember where I saw that, I think it was on MSDN, but I am not sure, and Google nor Bing are of much help right now, although Bing gives somewhat relevant results, whereas the big G gives some rather odd results). I ended up having to terminate the search service and delete the file. An update shortly after fixed the issues.

Bleah. One of the first things I do when installing Windows is turn off search indexing. I know where my files are.

I keep it on, although I don't use the search much. I mainly use the search to look for files I know I have but inadvertently saved in or moved to a different folder. Half of the time recent files stuff doesn't work as it should (I don't know why. I get random 'File Not Found' errors, even if the file exists.)

I lost my trust in the Windows searches a very long time ago. Total Commander is much more accurate, and in my opinion more usable as well.

I use Everything search, since it bypasses Windows entirely and just reads the drive header.  Only for NTFS drives though, but it can filter hundreds of thousands of filenames as you type without any pausing, from my experience.
Freeware, too.

Windows Search is turned off immediately after installation 
Glad someone else is using Everything because I find it awesome. It's quick, reliable, has a small footprint, I can't say enough praise for it Fell in love on the first search, good times.

Thanks for the link. Excellent Utility.

I don't, but I use Agent Ransack to find them, not Windows's search.

for Agent Ransack! Great free product! I find it particularly good at finding specific text in code files. Yesterday, it was 'document.all' which doesn't work on IE 11.

Hah! You use files? I just do all my work in one massive Notepad page. Then I have a spiral-ring notebook at my desk with a list of everything and the paragraph number where I can find it. And to keep my hard-drive really streaming, I don't save anything. If I ever have to shut down my computer, I just print out the Notepad page, and then scan it back in on startup.

I'm surprised you don't use your hard drive as a paper weight to keep the mountain of paper from falling over!

Me too. Plus I know how much of a pain the search engine can be when you keep modifying/creating stuff (such as object files) at a rapid pace.
Even worse, since W8 the search engine also searches the Cloud, and by extension, the entire web. Come on Microsoft, we don't have the storage capacity of the NSA at home just yet! Nor do we wish to serve as NSA botnet!
