Thread: This Mornings Crash Proved I'm An SRP Junkie

I couldn't believe it . I was going through withdrawal symptoms, sweating along with chills, shaking and muscle aches. You don't miss your water until the well runs dry.

Same here. This site is something I can surf from work w/o issue as my PC churns the latest code I wrote. Hitting the news sites gets old after the second time around and EBay, well you know...

All of my brilliant posts from 4:25 am and on gone for eternity. the world is a darker place now.

not compiled, database code. I need smaller datasets, clean data, faster CPU and as always, more ram. With most database work the data is never in the form needed for reporting and has to be twisted, bent, churned, heated, frozen, dried then steamed and dried again before it can be used to produce the results asked for. Three are ways to do this once and be done with it but that doesn't fit the business plan. Not complaining just the way it is.

There are packages called 'ETL' that can do all of the folding and bending of data and pump it into a data warehouse, I know...

I'm not the DBA, so you would know better than
I, but denormalization is a common technique
for reducing joins and optimizing queries at the
expense of write and space performance.

Since I can't control myself with the amount of time I spent on SRP, I'll say that I got more work done when the system was down that I have in a long time. Ugh, that's not something that I'm proud to admit.

Based on the number of emails and phone calls we got regarding the short pause in service and the anxiety it caused, we have decided to offer special StraightRazorPlace Down Time Insurance to help us through any future situations. The premiums will be extremely high while the policy benefits will be surprising limited. This will be a programs similar to our 12 step program aimed at helping people out with RAD. As you know that program doesn't work either.

So make sure that you and all your friends are aware of this new offering and be the first in your neighborhood to own this wonderful policy.

Remember that David and the team here is always working for you and that kind of reassurance should be more than comforting to all.

Thanks for all the hard work David!!!!!

Best regards,

Lynn
