  • Reply To: Missing the Office

    Teams might be close in some places I've worked, but the entire company at JD Edwards felt like a family of people who were working together.

    I'm not a fan of...

  • Reply To: When Are Your Breaks?

    Family vacations happen at various times during various years.

    I always take time at the end of October and early November to bow hunt the rut.

  • Reply To: When is it time for a new job?

    Each time I've decided to move on, it's been a pretty long search (maybe 6 months average) to find a new job.  It makes me quite nervous about having to...

  • Reply To: Under the Bus

    The examples you cited, Equifax and Solarwinds, are both very large companies.  There are probably several levels of management between the CEO and the analyst or intern responsible for the...

  • Reply To: A First Look at SSMS 20

    Looking forward to SQL Prompt working with this.  Until then, I'll be on 19.

  • Reply To: Protecting Off Hours

    In my experience, most of the time it is the employee who controls how many hours per week he/she is going to work.  You need to establish boundaries with your...

    I'm not really sure what the difference is between "no data can be added to a clone" and "the database is in read only mode".

    I started at my current company a little over two years ago.  It was a new position, they had never had a DBA before (and one was sorely needed).  One...

  • Reply To: Portable Data Storage

    Although cell cams are becoming more popular, most trail cams still use SD cards for data storage/transportation.

    Aside from that, I still prefer to move storage from one laptop to another...

  • Reply To: An In-Depth Look at MIXED_PAGE_ALLOCATION and Changes in Page Allocation

    I thought the same thing as Thomas Franz.  This article is clearly written by AI.

  • Reply To: Re-Evaluating the Cloud

    I read both posts from 37 signals with great interest.  I think of myself as "leans on-prem"; unless there is a specific problem that cloud solves, like crazy seasonality in...

  • Reply To: A Lack of Privacy in Smart Cars

    As cars have become more and more computerized, I find myself wanting to buy older and older cars.  I could easily see "firmware updates" cause cars to have outages some...

  • Reply To: Can Data Save the World?

    Very interesting to think of how differently this concept can be thought about 6 years later than it was originally published.  Since then the fact that people use data to...

  • Reply To: Degree Apprenticeships

    I hate the college system in the US.  Most people are going to college so they can get a good job.  Most jobs require a set of skills or aptitudes...
