you'll see length differences.

Same for Hashbytes in BOL. I'm surprised they didn't add this to the "What's New", but it's a...

Yeah, we need better disclosure on the "repair" strategy being bad.

I wish this was a TF enabled item and not just something people can run

Certificate length increased, hashing algorithms improved. I don't think the Symmetric algorithms changed, and it looks like the asymmetric ones are the same.

In terms of testing, building some setup harnesses for FK data shouldn't be too hard. It's also reuseable work, so that doesn't seem to be a valid argument for anything...

USE msdb

GO

SELECT * FROM dbo.sysssispackages

That's where they are. To run them, or edit them, you'll need BIDS/SSDT

There is stronger encryption, but you can implement better algorithms using the CLR, so that might not be a reason.

Overall, I'm not sure there are compelling reasons outside of Audit,...

It was being hosted by one of my musical heroes - Fish, he...

I meant write code that looks for

count(lookup value) = count(*)

for a table. Also, look for items in your text fields like "<script language=js>"

We've seen both of these hacks here on...

I'm not sure what you mean? Do you mean mark articles with a version?

The articles that mention newer code specifically tend to note the version. If the version has been...

You are welcome.
