Make your software scalable!

Okay, I finally give up with SubStats. It is software that might be useful for repository with few commits, but definitely not suitable for phpMyAdmin:

  1. You can not make graph for more than 1000 revisions of phpMyAdmin, it crashes because "stack is too low".
  2. Generated SVG make most browsers really busy as it contains too much points and they usually render it few minutes.
  3. I managed to analyse about 5000 revisions, but it now requires about 800 MiB of memory.

So I have unusable graphs of 1/10 of repository and analysed data for 1/2 of repository where I can not continue.

Howto upset developer?

Just set priority to highest and when developer decreases it, just tell him to stay **** off . Okay I will stay off your fucking issue, no problem.

(Side note: I have nothing against the issue itself, but this attitude won't make me to do anything about it.)

Google Ads and money transfer in Czechia

As I already wrote, I randomly found that I can receive direct payments from Google Ads. Today I received testing payment, so I enabled it instantly.

So finally I can receive my money without giving 1% to my bank.

Is it random that both Paypal and Google Ads offer this service in same time? Paypal has already updated their website, but on Google Ads help you won't find mention about this possibility in Czech Republic. Maybe they're using same provider for money transfers? I definitely don't know :-).
