    Not the point the article writer is trying to make. He is a data analyst like myself, and recently experienced with more databases than just SQL Server. (It's more...

    Informal survey before I make a fool of myself in an article (again)

    podmate (7/2/2015)

    There was stress in the job, but we were all very well trained and worked as a team.

    Wow, quite a story. Not sure I'd handle that well.

    I do agree...

    My first career was literally saving babies (running life support on extremely premature infants).

    I find that IT is a far more stressful career than medicine.

    In medicine, we are (mostly)...

    I downloaded SQL 2016 - SSMS the other day. I really like. Intellisense seems to be more "feature-rich". Yet to try out live query stats.

    What's "more feature rich"? The...

    And here I thought that the SSDT Add-In to Visual Studio was going to be the new path MS was going.

    Meaning? Everything in SSDT? Or SSMS as an add-in?

    I don't agree with this article.

    That's a reasonable question, but it might be instructive to pharse it a little differently: If you are looking to be a programmer, do you need education or...

    ... SQL developers without degrees were as rare as hens' teeth.

    I saw a stretch of this. It seemed every developer/programmer I worked with had some degree. The last 4-5...
