If you have never heard of #SQLTrain, it is a very economical way to meet several of the big names in the Microsoft Data Platform world. It travels from Vancouver WA (US) to Seattle on the Sunday between the SQL Sat event held in Vancouver and Seattle.

50 yrs ago today, May 11 1973, charges against my father and Tony Russo were dismissed by their judge on the grounds of gross government misconduct. My father had faced 115 yrs in prison for copying the Pentagon Papers.

The #sqlhelp tag is intended for Q&A for those that have questions around SQL. Please do not use it for marketing or promotion.

Really Idera, you won't take the hint about not marketing/advertising to the #SQLHelp Hashtag? You are going to end up blocked by a large number of people in the very community you are trying to reach.

Mountains aren’t just funny. They’re hill areas.
Picture of two mountains. Larger one has a very stern face drawn onto it. The smaller amount is looking up smiling at the larger mountain. The larger mountain seems annoyed.

Today we honor the memory of Holodomor victims. Holodomor was an artificial famine induced by the totalitarian Soviet regime against Ukraine. It was a genocide against Ukrainian people and a crime against humanity, much like the war russia is waging to subjugate Ukraine in 2022.

Tomorrow afternoon at 16:30 in room 2AB, I will be performing (literally) my lightning talk, YMCA - You Must Consider Accessibility. Ever since I saw @sql_r’s Model of a Modern SQL DBA, I’ve wanted to do my own musical lightning talk. Super excited that it’s finally happening! – at Seattle, WA
