05:00 is not a bad time for a drink in another time zone

A few years ago, I hadn't made it to my bed by that time. I'm losing my youth.

Amber ale here, so feel free to sort one for me if you see me.
Or tequila and something. OJ, CJ, GJ, water, ice, whatever

If you like to mix tequila, the most common mixer in Mexico is grapefruit soda (particularly Fresca). But if you really like it, I should remember to get you some Sotol if we ever meet in person.

Brandie Tarvin - Wednesday, September 6, 2017 6:34 AMThanks...BTW, aren't reports supposed to "report"? As in the idea is that applications change data, reports just tell you the state of the data. That's the way I've always seen the issue. It doesn't make sense to have a report that does application work.
because you're not allowed to develop applications, there's no budget for it and no project hours available, but you need to find a way to track something. so, you come up with bad ideas, pick the least bad one and do that.

Congratulations Brandie!
Just take care as it seems that the weather won't be great for Florida these following dates.

Please do. I like grapefruits. I should premix all the tequila so my wife and kids won't drink it. π

Quick, how do I look at the transaction log to see how many VLFs there are? Sorry, I am brain fried working on dynamic SQL.

Found it, thanks. DBCC LOGINFO is what I was looking for.

Brandie Tarvin - Wednesday, September 6, 2017 6:04 AMSo... I'm not going to be around as much as usual over the next couple of months. I've been working on a major project over the past 8 months that (as one coworker put it) was going straight from development to production. Unfortunately, the release date happened 6 weeks earlier than expected and now I'm kind of focusing on fixing the bugs 24/7 for the next 8+ weeks. I hope y'all don't fall apart without me. @=)BTW, the project I'm talking about? It had to do with an inadvertent use of DBCC TIMEWARP() on a pregnancy. Baby says "hi" or would if he could do more than gurgle at the moment.
What the heck did I just get myself into? SIGH. Please be careful with the use of that function. Apparently it has side effects no one warned me about. :crazy:
Congratulations Brandie. Enjoy!
Tom

That basically sums it all up. There is an application being developed (From scratch and not by the customer with whom we are directly working) to use hardware (That first needed to be invented by a third party, who at the time had no experience inventing such hardware and who have subsequently been replaced by another part of my organisation who are world leaders in our field but weren't allowed to bid initially coz politics and then could bid coz different politics), to do the job that the software we're currently supporting does. It was supposed to have been knocked out within six months so temporary fixes were put in place. Strangely, it turned into something of a lengthy project and it's why I'm still here three years and counting into a six month interim contract that should have ended with us being subsumed into the customer's IT department and then probably shown the door. I feel the word sh!tpile I used earlier may slightly understate the ridiculousness of our situation.
