True | [deleted] | null | Speaking as a former SL developer, I find the frank discussion like a breath of fresh air. Compare it with official pronouncements from MS who, even now, refuse to signal their intention toward the technology and instead leave it up to blogs to divine the answer (fwiw it's dead).

True | StrangeWill | null | Yeah, I'm confused, are 38 people using a SQL Management Studio not released to the public? Hover over reporting, wait a solid 5 seconds, right click on a table, wait, right click on an index, wait. It's painful.
The tools are _nice_, but the amount of lag in it can be frustrating at times, and I'll give it "well, it's never outright _crashed_, just fade-screened me for a few minutes".
I mean Visual Studio 2010 took a performance hit, and it still isn't nearly as slow as SSMS can be at times. | null | 0 | 1316736075 | True | 0 | c2lw3am | t3_ko3r2 | null | t1_c2lw3am | t1_c2lvn2z | null | 1427635050 | -2 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |
True | BrianAtDTS | null | None of these "new extensions" are new or even necessary or in some instances advisable. The only all around good one is the enterprise monitor, its one of the best monitors you can get from any database vendor.
The foolishness of this strategy is amazing, its only going to drive people to MariaDb and Percona's distro. It means all the really cool code is developed by GPL branches and shared about while oracle will have to maintain its branch independence by skipping all that great software FOSS so they don't have to give up the enterprise branches.
If Oracle really was interested in not killing its own billion dollar baby MySQL it would spend its time developing MySQL and work more on building true world class enterprise support. Then these branches would die out or be marginalized.
In all I don't think we should care about Oracle, its not relevant to where FOSS is going as a community. Let Oracle continue to think there is some value in charging for database software when everyone else knows that all the great new database software that is powering future architectures is FOSS and thats not going to change.
Seriously if you ran into a problem that required highly parallelized processing, redundancy, cheapness, throughput and easy to deploy, would you think Oracle, or would you think of something FOSS? yup Oracle, the boats left the dock and your not on it. | null | 0 | 1316736138 | False | 0 | c2lw3ln | t3_ko20r | null | t1_c2lw3ln | t3_ko20r | null | 1427635055 | 6 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

Oh if only I could convince some businesses of that.

True | lazyFer | null | Oracle has been stagnating as a product for years. They are no longer the performance champ and they've been hamstrung by a lot of their DBAs. A lot of Oracle DBAs came out of the mainframe world and were very comfortable with how setting up and managing Oracle databases worked....when Oracle would come out with products aimed at automating some of those administrative tasks there was a large pushback from high paid DBAs that didn't want to see their "importance" decreased.
Also Oracle doesn't follow ansi standards for datatyping and they were the last to the party for ansi standard querying (you couldn't even perform a full outer join until version 9i or 10g (can't remember which one) and outer join syntax was this goofy where clause crap (*) instead of actual join statements).
Oracle has a shitty built-in reporting capability and their built-in data loading tools are straight out of the mainframe era.
.NET developers seem to prefer SQL Server

I prefer SQL Server (The only thing I miss about Oracle is the ability to package groups of procedures and functions together into a single object).

True | ryobiguy | null | Hmm, perhaps the chip checks for the transmitted TCP FIN and assumes the local TCP endpoint doesn't care that it's time-wait period is getting cut off prematurely by the radio transceiver putting the link to sleep.
Something interesting that I painfully learned was that FIN only means that the FIN-transmitting side is done transmitting. It's perfectly valid for an application (socket really) to send a FIN but expect data in return for some time. Really odd, but valid. | null | 0 | 1316736602 | False | 0 | c2lw5ma | t3_knua7 | null | t1_c2lw5ma | t1_c2lt678 | null | 1427635082 | 1 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | LainIwakura | null | This is something that people who are good at Computer Science or Programming seem to assume. I make the same mistake, I wonder "how can people have trouble with *boolean logic*"? It's just so simple. But people have trouble with it.
I'm in a Java class right now (2nd year University), and our first assignment was incredibly basic. Given a number N, find the first prime number larger than N. For example, given 7 - 10, you'd get back 11.
One of the people who did this assignment, his program only worked with values larger than 25. I don't even know how that can happen, but he found a way. I don't think it's due to the professors saying it's difficult, because the professor never said it was a difficult thing. Some people simply don't get it, and we can say "It's so easy!" all we want, but a lot of people will still find it difficult. | null | 0 | 1316736880 | False | 0 | c2lw6u3 | t3_kogj4 | null | t1_c2lw6u3 | t3_kogj4 | null | 1427635098 | 54 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | ejrh | null | Upvoted because I think it's worth discussing.
I think the argument is *potentially* weak on two points:
1. We use pointers (reference) in everyday language; but in everyday language we seldom have more than one level of indirection, so people can easily just dereference until they get the kind of thing that makes sense in context. Most of our everyday pointers are kind of immutable; we don't say "here's a pointer to a pointer to a sentence, please make the pointed-to pointer point to a sentence about that dog over there and hand it back to me".
2. There's a big difference between knowing all the axioms of a system and knowing how to combine them to make theorems (let alone all the theorems in that system). If you know a pointer points (or even if you know a pointer is a 4 byte number containing the address of something in memory), you don't necessarily have any idea why a pointer is being used here. You also might not have the mental facility to manipulate multiple levels of pointers on the fly in your head the way a programmer who works with them has to.

Memory isn't that important to a snappy experience as the processor is now as most modern systems have 4-8gb or more of memory.

True | fokov | null | Automated testing should be the proper combination of testing and logic entry level. Units can always be automated and they will be quick. However, complex system require integration tests. This last week+ I have been writing "full" scale automated testing covering parts of the thousands of possible scenarios from the logic down to real db interaction (necessary evil at this point - not my decision). I've inherited this mess. Tightly coupled crap.
Lets put it this way, the code base is like a house of cards. I'm almost afraid to touch anything, because 4 different interconnected products use it. This one aspect took me a few days just to straighten out in my mind to where I could refactor the thing and make it better/actually work. All devs have their own way, and some code was written decades ago and much of it by people that don't work there anymore. That's why I chose to spend time with full scale tests. That and there are severe performance issues with the system.
I'm trying to fix the problems with the realm I can, but ... you probably know ... not your product don't fuck with it type of fixes. This is almost all garbage from data model on up. I guess the best thing about it is, the devs know it is shit.
Edit: sorry kept ranting, back to the point. "too much code" I agree with that. Some of my best days as a developer is when I typed almost the entire day and ended up with negative thousands lines of code.

- All C are A
- Some A are B
- All A are C
- No C are A
Some people have genuine difficulty with such questions. I hesitate to call them stupid (though honestly, that is my gut reaction) but they are certainly completely incomprehensible to me. To this person, a linked list can't be described as a list of things that are linked. You have to actually get something, put a physical link on it, and start attaching it to things until they visually or tactily "get it".
On the other hand, these people generally don't get into programming in the first place.
Also, I don't consider myself stupid, but if I told Past Dreadgoat that "a pointer points, a reference refers" I would not accomplish much. People in general work better when they can work with things that are instantly familiar and concrete. Tell someone that their job is to respond to Red with Green, to Green with Blue, and to Blue with Red. Speak random colors to them, they will get it quickly. Then throw out, "The color of this apple" and they will respond appropriately. Derpreka!
You can move on to passing references as arguments by asking them to be a function that paints apples, and then when they ask for the apple just say "Red." Yes, that's the color of the apple, but not what they need. They need *the apple*. | null | 0 | 1316744349 | False | 0 | c2lx3w0 | t3_kogj4 | null | t1_c2lx3w0 | t1_c2lw6u3 | null | 1427635530 | 36 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |
True | andytuba | null | The hotkeys are great, as are the ability to customize the script templates. I'm talking about when you're in a dialog with a table of objects: checkboxes on the left column, name, description in other columns. I'd expect to be able to up-down to select a row and press space to check the row's checkbox, but you have to navigate to the individual checkbox's cell before you can hit space to check it. | null | 0 | 1316744610 | False | 0 | c2lx4zw | t3_ko3r2 | null | t1_c2lx4zw | t1_c2lwftr | null | 1427635544 | 1 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | bigdubs | null | yeah i always have both open (sms and profiler).
some things get annoying, intellisense has me mashing ctrl-shift-r way too often and some other tasks are hidden in weird places.
execution plan analysis is also, nearly, always wrong about what parts of a query are eating up your reads/cpu time.
these are minor niggles though, if we ever transition off mssql i will miss sms dearly. | null | 0 | 1316744760 | False | 0 | c2lx5ox | t3_ko3r2 | null | t1_c2lx5ox | t1_c2lwu3a | null | 1427635555 | 1 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | mgowen | null | Maybe you just have more than a thousand database tables or something?

True | mhd420 | null | Silverlight is dead but the core of the XAML technology is still going to exist in WinRT. I think all browser plugins are pretty much destined to die at this point. I don't know why he asserts that WPF is dead when MS is using it for most of their development tools. | null | 0 | 1316744931 | False | 0 | c2lx6hn | t3_ko2wv | null | t1_c2lx6hn | t3_ko2wv | null | 1427635567 | 4 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |
