It gets slipped into the docs here and there; the vendors do not recommend leaving it plugged in, though it's never mentioned as a warning.
It used to be something about "battery memory" if you didn't let the level fluctuate (by some amount). So, I unplug when I notice it's full. Tablet, watch, phone, car battery, ...

With few exceptions, I don't charge my phone until it is down to single-digit battery life. Of those that I know that do leave their phones constantly plugged in, consequently their phones are constantly plugged in.
I know the electronics are there that supposedly keep it from overcharging, but I'm a doubter.

When you buy a new phone or battery, there is a reason they are charged to around 50% charge. This is the optimal charge to ensure the longevity of the battery. I only ever charge my phone to 60%, and that is after it has discharged to around 40%. Doing this, my iPhone 11 which is now 2 years old still shows battery health capacity of 100%. If you want to maximise battery health life, do not charge to 100%. Lipo batteries are not like a car battery in the way they work. Stop Charging your Phone Overnight! - YouTube[^]

For my GitHub MaxiBug project, a multi-user version of MiniBug, I am trying to create a free Heroku Postgres database.
This along the lines of this C# Corner article[^].
Creating a database works, but I can't seem to create any tables using the "Dataclips" section, not even after using:
set transaction read write;
CREATE TABLE temp( [fields] );
Any ideas anyone?

Here’s an idea. Don’t post this in The Lounge.
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

In the Huffington Post maybe?

Obviously CodeProject is not the right place for this question, so I will refrain from posting it in Quick Answers.
But my post was also meant as a way to generate some interest in this project which it deserves IMHO.

You can try there but remember that their sql subset only has a ‘left join’ and no ‘right join’!
(And I apologize for the snark in that first comment.)

Ah bugger. She had a great voice - I still have a couple of live tracks in my phone playlist for the car: "Georgy Girl", "I am Australian", and "Waltzing Matilda".

Yes, a fabulous voice. I never bought any of the Seekers' records, but often listen to then on YouTube.

Prang has been trying to defeat me. I got it working with MIDI, battled the lag dragon until it was more of a lag iguana, but it still bit.
I decided to switch over to USB for the increased responsiveness but that created a number technical challenges.
Prior, I was using an ESP32 with an embedded screen, and zero programmable USB ports, of which I need two.
I moved to an S3 but lacked an additional USB port. I ordered a Teensy 4.1, but that seemed like overkill.
Well, after attacking this external USB 2 host widget with a soldering iron and tweezers, it was sufficiently edited enough to work. Funny thing, whoever designed it figured you could power a USB port with 3.3volts. No. So hackery had to be had on my part.
Anyway, it is now receiving messages. Prior, I had it sending over USB with the earliest rendition of prang so I'm confident there. I'm almost out of the woods.
Now I just have to connect the in to the out and check for lag (famous last words. If you don't hear from me, send help)

As far as your title is concerned I think being too confident about winning isn`t [edit]usually a good think, a more suitable approach is "I will not give up, I will not surrender"

Some problems are irreducibly complicated. Then there is nothing to do but work the complexity.

4 possibilities to fill that last gap. The two I got to try rather reflect how I feel about it now!
