This is one of the few places I have worked where that cannot happen (as stated) because all work is done by release.

The release dates are scheduled before that...

There is nothing "heroic" about establishing yourself as a lynchpin, keeping your co-workers in the dark about how things work, and then bailing one day for a better job.

You've got different configs or permissions in the instances. That's where things aren't working. I'm guessing the top one has some permissions on public revoked

Culture is the hardest part to change in DevOps, which is people. Process is hard, but getting people to question how they do things and adapt to what others do,...

What does myLogin look like as a login?

You're describing things, but many of us have seen for years, that descriptions can be incomplete, and you might do something, or have...

You'll need to show some code or better explain what's happened. My guess is you haven't created the login with the same permissions.

I had nothing to do with this. AFAIK, this was a simple backup/restore, with norecovery and then...

I, too, am still disappointing in replication. It's far too brittle in many cases, and the tooling hasn't evolved enough to make it easier and better for admins to deal...

Thanks, glad you like it

I think someone thought this was a good idea and lots of people adopted it,...

Bittersweet. Glad the Broncos won, sad Mahomes didn't put up numbers.

That's a you thing. There are lots of others that don't have that luxury.

However, plenty of people can work, and have code, without having protected data on a laptop. That...

My age is getting up there, but this was something I learned in my 30s. Most companies don't want to fire you, and they don't want to replace you. They...

If someone asks me to do something and it's not a demand, I usually say no first. Or, I do what Brent suggests and may try to decide where this...
