@liprap Sucks about the power, but I did have to laugh at that. It’s those glimpses into their true selves.

@SQLBob One of the more insidious things is having a space at the end of an object name. Causes some very inconsistent behavior depending on what tool you use to query. Managed to confirm it using quotename.

@DimitriFurman I would expect to see all databases always, along with a “last seen at” time stamp on each independently, so I can judge how stale the observation is.

@liprap God willing, I will never know those apps.

[Chuck Rummel @crummel4]

@liprap We regularly thank each other for not having to worry about any of that dating app garbage 🤣

[Chuck Rummel @crummel4]

@liprap I don’t think “but” is the word you want there, lol. Maybe you love him “because” he saves you from having to worry about that.

[Chuck Rummel @crummel4]

@liprap I hope it’s a Kraken.

@grrl_geek @chapmandew @GSPJackJack 11 years? I swear it seems like just yesterday when you got him. Where did the time go? So sorry to hear this.

@erinstellato No, but I can tell when someone used the graphical designer to create a view when I script it out and the extended property for the layout comes with it and add another few hundred lines to the script 😜

@erikdarlingdata I had no idea he was a DBA 🤣

@BuckWoodyMSFT No small coincidence you chose examples which all derive from Latin, where eight is octo and night is nox, though in the objective, noctem.

@sqL_handLe Many people, especially non-dba types, don’t understand the difference between rowstore and columnstore, so anything we can do to lower than impedance would be helpful I’d think.

[Chuck Rummel @crummel4]

@sqL_handLe You had me at scalable parallel CCI inserts my friend.

@BuckWoodyMSFT You’re leaving out something. 10T of what *kind* of storage?

@skreebydba Sequences on many platforms get allocated in blocks for efficiency but it means there can be gaps. Not in front of a computer to find the docs at the moment, sorry.

@erikdarlingdata They got tired of people asking if tcp chimney offload was enabled on Windows 2022?

@jdanton @skreebydba Agree on the quorum votes, I was thinking of possibly different setups and trying to see more of the picture.

[Chuck Rummel @crummel4]

@skreebydba @jdanton Are all AG members in the same WSFC too? If the FCI is a replica what’s the primary? How was the AG created?
