I've recently started drinking brake fluid from my car every evening. My wife is a bit worried but I reckon I can stop anytime I want.

Using CROSS APPLY in TSQL will never not confuse me it seems. I can get it to do what I need, but I never understand how it does it. Magic?

It can be hard to imagine how to defend oneself against an overwhelming force like ICE. But a few enterprising hackers have started projects to do counter-surveillance against ICE, and hopefully protect their communities through clever use of technology. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

Should we have notebook support for SQL Server in SSMS? Vote here: developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Notebooks-... As a bit of context, Notebooks are supported in VSCode/ADS already, but we lose some capability and visibility in SSMS: www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/not...

I love my echo chamber where everyone values the humanity of other people and enjoys the arts.

In tech, just like in life, small data points can create big changes. Data is the key to unlocking endless possibilities. Every byte of data tells a story. Be the one who uses it for good. #data #tech #life

Trying the MSSQL extension in VSCode for the first time. I feel like I'm missing a stack of useful other features (like SQL Prompt) but so far so good!

I spent a bit of time programming for fun and learning python over the last few days. I remember why I fell in love with it all now! Work pressure and politics drained me and killed my ambition in 2024. Onwards into a more focused 2025! #programming #nye #forwards

First time in ages using Redgate Source Control and Compare for some on prem SQL deployments.I'd forgotten how good they are. So easy to just grab and use and get stuff done.

It's finally arrived! I'm ridiculously excited to check it out.

I rarely post here, but when I do it's out of frustration with Azure. Today is seemingly Data Factory's turn to make me regret my career choices.

Same here. I often wish my dad was still here so I could show him how far computing has come.

This 40-year-old interview with Sandy White, creator of landmark isometric open-world survival-horror game Ant Attack, is fascinating. Lots of period insights about a game that really was absolutely astonishing for its time. Blew my mind when I first saw and played it in late 83.

I swear that the more I learn about Azure, the less I know! Today's muddle is trying to use a Windows account to connect to an IaaS SQL instance. How the heck does Key Vault handle AD accounts? #AzureDataFactory #Azure
