@intoleranse Awesome, congrats!

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

Arrived in Oslo and excited to catch up with friends, new and old, over the next few weeks. First order of business: cleaning up after 14 hours of travel, then dinner and hitting up Rock In later tonight.

@IrishSQL Even I know better than to do that… and I once burned pasta in the microwave…

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

@intoleranse @ThomasIvar62 Actually I’d say that makes our memories about equal. I used dialup back when the public internet first became a thing, and prior to that for BBs

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

@intoleranse @ThomasIvar62 I still remember the admin password for a Novell network I managed. Man that was a long time ago…

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

@intoleranse Im truly sorry for your loss.

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

@intoleranse There might be one or two shows during pass week, but the following week there’s four in Seattle.

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

@intoleranse @DBArgenis I to have invites for anyone who needs them

@bobwardms @Microsoft @SQLServer @Windows @MicrosoftLife Thank you for all the work you and others have, and continue to put in making SQL Server and the community what it is.

I’ve arrived in Berlin, next up dropping off my stuff at the hotel and then food.

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

Oslo was amazing as was London. I had a blast catching up with friends old. Big thanks to @ToneHansson for showing me around Oslo, @runeo34, @intoleranse and all the rest of the Oslo DataSaturday folks, as well as @Neil_Hambly for the great time in London.

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

Next up is Berlin!

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

This was my first time at @DataSatOslo and I have to say it was an amazing time. Thank you to all the organizers, volunteers, and sponsors who made this event happen.

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

Brandon Leach will perform a live Data File Autopsy on the stage of @DataMoshpitDE. But beware: the first few rows might be considered the “splatter zone”. //cc @SqlServerNerd

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

@DataSatOslo has been on my bucket list for many years, and visiting Norway for many more. This weekend it’s finally happening. Join me and many others at this amazing day of learning. You can register here https://t.co/mzBeVAUaGf

@CFDevelop @justizin US stock exchanges and hedge funds make heavy use of relational databases. They do scale very well when properly designed. That being said often you will find a mix of other database types as well.

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

@DBArgenis I’ve been looking for a good alternative to this platform.

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

@DataMonsterBen @DataMoshpitDE @FrankGeisler I’ll do it in the next two days. I’ll ping you once it’s done.

[Brandon Leach @SqlServerNerd]

@CatWithTools So they pulled a Pepsi then, except your prize is a giant pain because you have to deal with not having that bathroom.
