    Saluton Grant, mia nomo estas Jon. Vidigita materialo plibonigus la agadon, eble vi ne sciis tion.

    Ha! It translated that as "viewed material would improve performance". I suppose that's right. Not viewing anything can slow things down considerably.

  • Why do so many people think that "it doesn't work for me" is a sufficient description of their problem to reach a resolution?

    Because we are supposed to be expert mind readers and know exactly what they need/want to solve their problem.  Link?

    They're trying to ensure that some of us will always get job offers in interview. 😛

    Clearly they're saying that it works for everyone else, and just not them ("doesn't work for me"); thus the problem isn't the SQL or SSRS report, it's the user. Definitely a PICNIC. 🙂

  • Another example of people not supplying nearly enough information.  I got an email from someone saying that I met the qualifications for a job at their company and wanting to know if I was interested.  No information about the job whatsoever.  No title, no description, no location.

    Turns out that email address has been disabled.  Maybe it was some sort of phishing email.
