He's asking MySQL questions on a SQL Server site and appears to be about at the level of spelling 'SQL'. I won't be surprised if he asks "What's a backup?"I fear the force is weak in this one.
I'm sorry. I will go and meditate immediately.
After 4 days of teaching university grads basic SQL, probably more hibernate than meditate.
What comes next? The sequel? 😀
Time to run and hide!!! :w00t:
Another veiled threat to take your ball and run?

Ouch, this looks a little bit painful

And probably more fetal position with thumbsucking than hibernating.
They weren't that bad. Had some attitude from a couple of them initially, it went away after the first day, after they realised I'd taught more in 5 hours than they'd learned in their university database course of 5 weeks. 🙁

Well hope they understand how lucky they are! I remember my Database course at University, it had too much theory - tuples, Codd, 3NF VS XNF etc. When we got to triggers that's when a select few got interested for a while.... lord knows why!

Well, I have finally seen the new Star Wars movie and I would like to thank those that kept quiet. But I have to say, if I was to cynically guess at a plot for it I would have been about 95% there. The other 5% was interesting. Although lovely to watch and I'm glad I saw it, it was rather predictable.
At the end scene I did think to myself "I'd have parked at the top of those steps - that's a long walk up". But I'm old, and such things would occur to me.
Did anybody else notice that in the end credits there are two 'Voice Consultants' for BB-8? That had to be a cushy job - shared.
And to change the subject completely - I'm glad the next Liverpool SQLBits isn't at the previous Liverpool location - http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/liverpools-adelphi-hotel-handed-zero-10712141. It was grim at the time and doesn't appear to have improved.

I'm also very glad that SQL Bits is not at the Adephi. That was an odd few days last time. A hotel that was once grand but no longer.
I see both Edinburgh and Cambridge have now gone live on the SQL Saturday Upcoming Events. Still no sign of Manchester though!
Sad news about Alan Rickman, saw it as I was popping out for lunch. Stopped in my tracks.
Oh no Steve is in the UK next week :O
Superfoods, will be treating myself to a strawberry, raspberry, banana & orange juice drink later...

Another celebrity death. For those old enough to remember the TV show Grizzly Adams actor Dan Haggerty has died at age 74.
Wonder if Ramsey scored a goal yesterday?

No, but it seems that George R. R. Martin wrote the script for this year.

Perhaps we should start a Celebrity Death Pool? Who's in?

A friend of mine described it as "all fur coat and no knickers". Seemed about right. And nice to see the staff living up to the Liverpudlian stereotype.

Exeter too. \o/

Yup. Typical, really. He visits Red Gate the week after I do...
