  • RE: cumilative totals?

    This is like following a chain of B-Movie horror films...

    First there was.... "The Thread".

    Then came the "The Son of Thread".

  • RE: Shapes in the Clouds

    One thing I find amusing right now:

    The database servers I currently work with are virtual machines. All their hard drives are virtual drives, existing on a single RAID 5...

    How could I have forgotten "Bride of the Thread?"

    I LOVED Kate Beckinsale in the last remake. 😛

    She was in "Bride of the Thread"?

  • RE: How would you get rid of this cursor?!

    Where it has the "print @sql" in it, what output does it give you? The string should be built with the various database names already in it.

  • RE: Dreaming of Clouds

    I think the whole idea is that there will be a set of people/systems that will monitor hardware for you and you won't have to worry about it.

    If you're having...

  • RE: Shapes in the Clouds

    I just wonder how long it'll be before the title "Virtual Technician", or "Virtual System Admin", or some such will start showing up on resumes. Or does it already,...

  • RE: Dreaming of Clouds

    It sure sounds interesting. And a lot of it is definitely either already here or on the horizon and visible.

    As always, it'll mean even more specialization in IT. ...

  • RE: Reverse string without built in functions

    Michael Valentine Jones (4/15/2009)

    I posted a simplified explanation of each. Hopefully it's neither too simplified nor not simplified enough. Hard to judge that sometimes in these cases.

  • RE: Hierarchy XML Construction

    I would need to see what the tables look like before I can answer this. It's generally a pretty simple thing to answer, once I know what the tables...

    Wow!!

    GSquared, this is whole new territory for me. I am going to do some tests and try this example.
