- Take the 2-Minute Geek Test
Take a quick peek around your office… Have a good look at the other developers sitting nearby. What are they like, who’s the geekiest? Is it you? Or do you have someone so nerdy in the team that you actually consider yourself quite a cool developer thank you very much! Who’s got the thickest glasses, [...] - Re-writing History with SQL Server 2005 SP2a
Why you can no longer rely on @@VERSION to determine your SQL Server version...We’ve just upgrade to SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2a. You mean SQL Server 2005 Service Park 2, surely? No, I mean Service Pack 2a. Read on...
- Return of the Cravat Slashers
11:11am. February 15th 2007. Thursday. The single most dangerous day of the year. The day when developers and DBAs all over Germany and Luxembourg cower under their desks, hide behind their monitors and refuse to leave the safety of the server room. The day on which the slightest hint of a snipping sound, the merest momentary glint of sunlight off [...] - Share a Magic Moment with Bill
Show us your “Wow” is the latest Vista marketing campaign from Microsoft in an attempt to get us all being “wow”ed enough by their latest, prettiest OS to actually start deploying it on our home and business PCs. If you’ve recently experienced a “wow” moment, which can be anything amazing, incredible or exhilarating (Microsoft’s adjectives, [...] - Enjoying a Day with Microsoft
As an ISV (Independent Software Vendor) and Registered Partners of Microsoft, we braved the severe winds and rain to attend an ISV conference last week at the Microsoft Campus. It was a great day, and we were well looked after (as we always are) by Microsoft. The conference covered business aspects, as well as being [...] - Career Progression, Career Depression
When your code is going well you’re flying. Everything’s cool and you wouldn’t swap your job for any other career, not even stepping into Michael Schumacher’s slick shoes or being an ice-cream taster. You have a great day at the office and leave work, bouncing down the street on a complete high. Then you come in [...] - Braintertainment
Led Zeppelin fished from one. Axl Rose repeatedly trashed them. And Michael Jackson hung his son by the ankles from the balcony of one. Me? I had an idea in one… You know what they’re like. Hotel rooms I mean, just in case you’d not worked it out by now. Nothing to read except the bar menu and instructions [...] - Marvelous Mechanical Mouse Music
MBR and best practices for de-gunking your mouse. I hate mice. Not those cuddly, furry little brown things with big feet which curl up in winter and get photographed asleep and cute for calendars. Nor the cartoon type that hit cats over the head with frying pans, repeatedly, for our entertainment. Not even the one in [...] - My Favorite Development Day
Have you ever noticed that you seem to program better on some days of the weeks than others? I once did a SQL Server MCP training course and had to choose one day of the week on which to devote to my studies. I chose Fridays. Everyone who works Monday through to Friday and has [...] - Annoying Habits of Fellow IT Workers
How do your co-workers irritate you? I’ve had several in my time in this industry. Like the chipmunk guy who rummaged through his desk looking for his bag of nuts once every fifteen minutes. I still have nightmares about him. Or the trainee “dude” who could never pick up on body language that said DO NOT [...]
