Allstate is looking for mid to senior level DBAs for a remote U.S. hours job. Must have good experience with 2 RDMSs. Ping me if you want more info.

Not sure how long the job will be open.

Glad someone is hiring. Seems so many places are holding off and delaying hiring.

today was a busy day for spammers.

I've reported likely over 400 posts today. 92 of them from a single user, and a few others with 55 posts each.

really would like forum software to "hide" posts from a user that has been reported (and blocked) more than 10 times for example.

also adding a throttle to number of posts by any new user (or very low post count) would be great.

Yeah, I gave up looking for actual questions on the forums.

> 400! That's going above and beyond, I'm impressed. Your remediation ideas are sensible – I hope something comes of them, but I won't be holding my breath.
