Not that SQL server development or administration is trivial, but I think the problem I see with the majority of developers is their lack of basic business knowledge....

I have that same problem. I think if you can't get a handle on that in elementary school, your...

The best developers I know were, to be blunt, just born with it. Yes, they had to learn the syntax, but they seem to know the answers...

Let me admit up front that I'm not a hardware person nor do I know much about what's involved in doing tape backups but what about just standardizing where on...

Steve mentioned Doctor Who, which I love. Torchwood is now filling the gap in the current Doctor Who series. I think the current Torchwood series seemed to...

I highly recommend Containment by Christian Cantrell. It's a story about a human colony on Venus. I couldn't put it down and ended up finishing it before the day...

DECLARE @myDate DATETIME

SELECT @myDate = GETDATE()
