    I find learning a tiered affair. I think many people are talking about doing something and learning it, however, there hasn't been much (any?) talk of the knowledge and experience...

  • RE: Logical processors

    TomThomson (9/22/2016)


    Interesting question.

    There is a rather odd statement in the explanation: "Hyperthreading does not affect licensing limits". That's not correct. Hyperthreading doess affect licensing limits on a virtual...

  • RE: Calling a Stored Procedure with Output Parameters

    I didn't know off of the top of my head so I used Bing.

    The following is from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30899586/how-to-get-stored-procedure-output-parameter-into-variable-using-powershell:

    $SqlConnection = New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection

    $SqlConnection.ConnectionString = "Server=myserver;Database=mydb;Integrated Security=True"

    $SqlCmd = New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand

    $SqlCmd.CommandText = "testsp3"

    $SqlCmd.Connection =...

  • RE: Logical processors

    I have certainly learnt something today. I don't know much about processors on different editions and don't even mention licencing. These are the areas where I am not jealous of...

  • RE: Capture the Flag

    Of course, we could just have stricter compilers. Or even runtimes that do not allow buffer overflow (already happening). These runtimes are often criticised for taking up too much resource...

    10X doesn't mean more code. It doesn't mean more functions or features. It doesn't mean 1/10th the time....

    The only "enhancement" is where the coffee is going in and that someone else is prepared to get it :ermm:

  • RE: Why We Need Backups First

    webrunner (9/20/2016)
