    "One" by 3 Dog Night

    --Jeff Moden


    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

  • What about DBA's Delight?

  • Someone needs to put together a QOD.

    Although you could catch a DBA listening to any of these, which is a actual song performed by the listed artist?

  • I can think of a few that I'd recommend:

    SSISudio - Phil Collins

    B-Trees - Rush

    Mean Mr. Clustered - The Beatles

    OLE Driver - Dio

  • For me it's just about anything except opera. I have never enjoyed opera. (Note: the music not the software).

    I currently have Peter Frampton's Fingerprints CD playing.

  • Some songs on my PC. Without title-alterations: not just for the DBA

    Lock and key - Rush

    Careful with That Axe, Eugene - Pink Floyd (advice for a disgruntled user)

    Leave no trace - Anathema

    Ghost In The Firewall - Arena

    Climbing The Net - Arena

    Frame by frame - King Crimson

  • Really depends on my mood.

    I prefer Trance and Progressive dance music; I dislike techno, which is a specific genre of dance music, so stop lumping all dance music under "techno" 😛

    But then I might also switch to some Aerosmith, Nina Simone, Madonna, Kylie Minogue, classical music or maybe even something from the 40's or 70's.

    However, you will never catch me listening to modern R&B or Hip Hop.

  • Just found a brace of Snow Patrol songs on the album A Hundred Million Suns:

    * Engines

    * Disaster Button

    Beautiful Day(ta). For when it is working.

    Still haven't found what I'm looking for. For when it isn't working and you don't know why.

    Running to stand still.

    There is no problem so great that it can not be solved by caffeine and chocolate.
