Today, @ogobrecht.com and I have released version 1.3.0 of the great console logging framework. It includes many new unit tests and a breaking change to the "assert"-procedure. Check out what's new in my latest blog post: seedandpublish.com/blog/console...

I've used AI for APEX and PL/SQL for a year, but this week something changed. ⚡ I generated 100s of lines of production-ready PL/SQL in one shot. It’s all about metadata, specs, and agent instructions. #orclAPEX #AI blog.cloudnueva.com/an-ai-shift-...

I have stumbled across some implicit data conversions that I was unaware of, causing poor performance when querying JSON-relational duality views. I demonstrate what I mean using a simplified example in this blog post. www.salvis.com/blog/2025/01...
