Secondarily, I think this discussion is probably moot as I don't see Microsoft ever allowing access without authentication as it holds the potential for disrupting a revenue stream.
Still unclear...

Well, if you lay it all out flat like that it won't be very easy to read. Usually you indent the code in between the braces to make it easier...

If it's the former, I'm surprised no-one's pointed out both languages compile to the same intermediate language
Wasn't it mentioned in the original article?

I definitely agree with Iain on the positioning of the curly brackets issue. Pretty sure the
if (x) {
// something
}
only came about to save a few precious characters in the...

I suspect a lot of the reason that VB.NET is looked down on is simply because it's BASIC. There have been many truly awful versions of BASIC released over the...

Another tool along these lines would be to expand select statement itself to allow for an exclusion set of columns. For example:
select all except (columnX, columnY, columnZ) from Table.....
That would...

Is this the Developer Edition or Express Edition of SQL 2005? Any other edition won't allow you to install the database engine on a non-server OS, as far as I...

If you're not actually uising all the columns it also means you're returning a lot more data to the calling application than it actually needs. That's not so much of...

Just to add a note about the load being spread over all the CPUs--that's pretty much normal. When you have a single thread running at 100% CPU the Windows task...

I think it's a matter of educating developers in proper database design and manipulation. Yes, removing the option for SELECT * would force them to do that one thing properly,...

I've not tried it, but I've found anecdotal evidence that SQL 2000 won't work on Server 2008--given that uses the Vista kernel, as does Windows 7, I'd say the chances...

Does using ALT+TAB to switch to another application, then back to the offending app, work?

Odd. Just ran that code against a SQL Server 2008 Express Edition database, and the VARCHAR(MAX) runs generally had higher CPU time but lower elapsed time than the VARCHAR(x) ones...
