I may be seeing through rose-colored glasses, but it does seem that since the switch to WP, the spam went up significantly.

I won't blame the change to the new back-end...

Last week for work I sat in on a lecture / discussion on "AI" as related to what the organization does, and I found it rather telling that I asked...

Yes, despite some rather "hacky" solutions, you can't have the x86 and x64 Redistributables installed on the same system.  Ideally, you have the one that matches what's on the developers'...

Found this on the download page of Access Database Engine 2016 Redistributable.

OK, so that answers another question I had, and it's a good thing.  Now for the challenging question.  Do you...

So what I've seen with a couple different backup applications is, the backup application takes a VSS snapshot of the drive(s,) and SQL "sees" that as a full backup and...

@jasona.work - no, it uses dynamic SQL to do the backup (full or differential). We do have a server-level backup done by a 3rd-party but that's only the complete...
