GI-MAP Test in Amman \ Jordan

 -Order the test from Europe  info@nordic-labs.com

-Order the test under your patient name as written in the passport

-To send it with a DHL in Amman, you need a certificate of non infectious disease in English not Arabic, this is the most difficult step and bottleneck

- Go to a Comprehensive Health Center Go to one closes to you or anyone might work too. Abdoun is the cleanest. In Arabic it is called Markaz Sihi Shamil (مركز صحي شامل) you gonna give a blood and urine sample and can collect the certificate.

- ask them for a certificate similar to this here in the photo, not from Hakeem website, as the latter is only in Arabic not in English:



take the certificate and head with the stool sample to DHL. 

Good Luck!!

Error Copying File or Folder to a Chinese Server

 the error indicates: unspecified error

This ALWAYS happens when I copy a big file from outside china to a Chinese machine or server using windows remote desktop copy/paste or rdp! the file is not really big, but anything larger than say 40MB will throw the error. 

This is due to internet censorship I guess. Use vpn or zip and divide using 7zip then transfer the files using ftp, then unzip on the server side.

Google Play Store Not Removing/Deleting Credit Card

 I have had an issue: going to payments methods under my pixel's google play store to remove one does not show any 'remove' or 'delete' option. Going to 'more options' was taking me to a web page called GPay under my google account, which showed a different list of payment methods: it did not show my PayPal, now a 'deleted' credit card that I was seeing in the google play store all the time, in fact, I wanted to delete this very cc from the google play store permanently. The solution: Install the GPay App from google on your android, there you will see the exact payment methods under the google play store but with 'remove' option. It seems the web page of GPay is pointing to a different DB compared to GPay App/Google Play Store App.

I contacted google and hope they are gonna fix it.

 Bill of material desing.

AdventureWorks database contain a production.billofmaterials table.

This is used to store a hierarchy of ingredients that together form a product. Take a bike for example: it consists of many parts. Some parts are themselves consisting of parts. The part that has subparts is an assembly, while the leaves parts (without any children/sub parts) are called components in the table. Bike1 consists of say a body1 and wheels1, the wheels consist of tube1, tyre1 and rays1. The 1 here to indicate the type/id.

The same wheels1 can be used with bike2, which say consists of body1 and wheels1. 

The table mentioned stores the wheels1 tree (tube1, tyre1 and rays1) twice. Once under the bike1 and another under bike2 (duplication of bom records). This approach has got pros and cons: it duplicates data and tree maintenance and updating. Another approach is to store wheels1 tree and then refer to its root once from the tree of bike1 and another time from the bike2 tree.

Android 12 exclamation mark on mobile data internet

 pixel 4a here: after upgrading the mobile data does not work. Resetting did not work neither restarting. Here is the solution: take the same out of the device and put it again if it is a physical one (nano). This will force the carrier and phone to match their settings again.
