MySQL and GIT

Today I was working on an ITU Datamining project where I am forced to use MySQL instead of MSSQL. I learned that the ISNULL() function on MySQL has a boolean return and will not work like the T-SQL ISNULL(). I also saw the use of "make" even though I am yet to understand the point of makefiles.

Florian showed me lots of tricks:

ctrl-z plus the command "bg" to put something in the background thread in the shell or just start emacs with the "&" flag.
alt-q in emacs to get some pretty formatting.
ispell in emac to spellcheck.
using ssh jovt@ssh.itu.dk to get to my itu network drive from my own computer.
