    Rather than assuming we understand your code, or...

    Efficiency doesn't make customer service better, it destroys it. The more we depend on machines, the less we depend on our human abilities. We get lazy and dummer...

    Improved efficiency by definition makes more resources available. What you do with those resources is a business problem, not a technical one.

    So what you're saying in short is...I'm right 😛 lol

    Yes and no. There are issues with devices now, and always will be with some, but the advances...

    Is Skynet coming?

    Computers are only as smart as the people who program them.

    I'm not concerned about robot overlords exterminating mankind in the future, but I do believe that artificial intelligence has created a sort of soft tyranny here and...

  • RE: The Evolving DBA

    I think that's similar here. I tend to see about the same (which is few) dBA jobs. However more is asked of developers or sysadmins in some of the postings...

  • RE: Max DB Size for SQL Server Express

    I do think the question should have included Express. When I test them, I see the title, so it didn't occur to me and I didn't read it closely enough.

  • RE: Are the posted questions getting worse?

    Today is National Tequila Day in the US, so all speaker dinners should include that, perhaps with some Latin flavored food.

    My kids have declined margaritas, but they have requested enchiladas.
