  • RE: Datetime Conversion Issue in SSIS - Need Help

    Brandie Tarvin (6/16/2011)

    Notice the difference in the accuracy.

    They look the same to me--0.000, 0.003 or 0.007 means 3 divisions in 1/100th of a second, which is 1/300th second accuracy. Same...

  • RE: LoginProperties

    Richard Warr (6/17/2011)please dont assume that questions are easy for everybody just because they fall into your particular sphere of experience.

    It doesn't--I had to look it up as well. Comparing...

  • RE: LoginProperties

    The more of these questions I see, the more I think there are a significant fraction of respondents who are just clicking an answer at random...surely this isn't difficult enough...

  • RE: Why Can't We Code?

    I disagree slightly with the premise. The ability to create a website or put an app out are both very specific programming skills which might not be relevant--for instance, most...

  • RE: GO

    I agree with Wayne--I selected "50" because it was the least incorrect of the provided options, but the question (or the answers) could definitely have been clearer!

  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?

    Jan Van der Eecken (6/1/2011)


    Now if I would only remember how to re-write this in a proper language like X86 Assembler :w00t:

    x86 a *proper* language? 68000 assembly all the way!!!...

  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?

    Gianluca Sartori (5/31/2011)

    Three years ago I had a Toyota yaris diesel. It could run 25 km with 1 litre.

    That's about 70mpg (in UK measure, anyway) which is a lot better...

    Now that's cool. Didn't know that. I may have to look into that... you're getting better gas mileage than my 1300 cc motorcycle.

    I average 57mpg from...

  • RE: The Ad Hoc Change

    gitmo (5/31/2011)


    It's also easier to put invalid data in a denormalized database or one that lacks proper declarative referential integrity.

    Entirely true, and I wasn't suggesting that we should all design...

  • RE: Resource Governor

    Easy, yes, but apparently still hard enough for 50% of the respondents so far to have got it wrong! 🙂

  • RE: The Ad Hoc Change

    Ironically, it's actually easier to make manual adjustments like this in a badly designed database--normalisation makes things easier for computers but a lot harder for people!

  • RE: Is this query right for finding fragmented indexes?

    I'm pretty sure the 30% was a ballpark figure that one of the guys who wrote SQL server came up with--it wasn't ever intended to be a "you must use...

  • RE: The Three Percent Difference

    john.riley-1111039 (5/19/2011)


    Well I for one would be happy to be getting $75,000 (GBP46,450) and even happier if I thought it would go up by a minimum of 2% just for...

  • RE: Dating for DBAs - a second date

    Mr Quillz (5/13/2011)


    Something is wrong with that answer provided.

    No, there isn't. Try reading the rest of the thread.

  • RE: Restoring Editions

    I second this post. The correct answer cannot be determined from the question as written.

    Yes it can, because the question as written is talking about "data compression", NOT "backup...
