Appreciate the sentiment

Thanks

I've been using SQLServerCentral almost from the beginning.

...

One thing puzzles me.  SQLServerCentral is not behind a paywall; it is the de facto SQL Server knowledge site, has a huge...

Steve,

That was great to hear stories from the early days.  I'm not even a DB guy but I always appreciate your Voice of the DBA write-ups and I always...

I don't think there's a way to do this in t-sql. When you connect with SSMS, you're accessing the server and getting results streaming in text. I suppose some sort...

Thanks for that. I'll update the article as this should be in all of them

I think devs, or someone with previous experiences, make a lot of choices. They think a thing worked in the past, and it's a data store, so it should work...

Agreed. I wish MSSQL supported the COMMENT ON clause in SQL, but extended properties work, and will be needed for better AI responses (and really, for better human code)

I'm not 100% clear on what you want to do. Are you looking to put each partition in its own filegroup?

Filegroups are for managing the files on disk for backup/restore...

Heh, it's bad enough getting people (myself included!) to keep documentation up-to-date, imaging managers' frustration (and the workers) trying to keep two different formats (human-readable / automation-agent-AI) of the...

More important ~= Not important. You're taking a leap

I've heard a few people say that docs for code should be structured more for AI/automation/agents than humans. Or it should be in both formats. Not sure what makes it...

I saw that. I kind of agree, though I do think I still write some code, usually correcting things the AI gets wrong.

I also think AI-generated SQL is surprisingly good...

The more I use AI and treat it like a junior colleague, the more useful it is. Often because there are places I stop using it.

That's interesting. I assume a "dir <nas path>" doesn't work? Can you experiment with some other remote paths?
