  • The SQL Server Community

    - by AllenMWhite
    In case you weren't aware of it, I absolutely love the SQL Server community. The people I've gotten to know have amazing knowledge, and they love sharing that knowledge with anyone who wants to learn. How can you not love that? It's inspiring and humbling all at the same time. There are a number of venues where the SQL Server community comes together. I'm including Twitter , the PASS Summit , the various SQL Saturday events, SQLBits , Tech Ed , and the local user groups. Each of us takes part in...(read more)

  • 5 Things SQL Server should get rid of

    - by Jonathan Kehayias
    Paul Randal ( blog | twitter ) started a new meme last night with his blog post " What 5 things should SQL Server get rid of? " A few bloggers have posted their top 5 lists, so here is mine. Creating Foreign Keys without mentioning Indexes This is probably a performance tuning consultants favorite.  I know that Greg Low has blogged about this in the past (see Indexing Foreign Keys - should SQL Server do that automatically? ) and back then, and now I still do think this should be an...(read more)

  • SQL Server 2008 R2: StreamInsight - User-defined aggregates

    - by Greg Low
    I'd briefly played around with user-defined aggregates in StreamInsight with CTP3 but when I started working with the new Count Windows, I found I had to have one working. I learned a few things along the way that I hope will help someone. The first thing you have to do is define a class: public class IntegerAverage : CepAggregate < int , int > { public override int GenerateOutput( IEnumerable < int > eventData) { if (eventData.Count() == 0) { return 0; } else { return eventData.Sum()...(read more)

  • What is the best way to keep track of the median?

    - by Steven Mou
    I read a question in one book: Numbers are randomly generated and stored into an (expanding) array, How would you keep track of the median? There are two data structures can solve the problem. One is the balanced binary tree, the other is two heaps which keep trace of the biggest half and the smallest half of the elements. I think these two solutions has the same running time as O(n lg n), but I am not sure of my judgement. In your opinions, What is the best way to keep track of the median?

  • What are cons of usage only non-member functions and POD?

    - by Miro
    I'm creating my own game engine. I've read these articles and this question about DOD and there was written to not use member functions and classes. I also heard some criticism to this idea. I can write it using member functions or non-member functions it would be similar. So what are benefits/cons of that approach or when project grows, does any of these approaches give clearer and better manageable code? With POD & non-member functions I don't have to make struct members public I can still use object id outside of engine like OpenGL does with all it's stuff, so It's not about encapsulation. POD - plain old data DOD - data oriented design

    - by gotqn
    I have read topics of people that what to style their compiz sphere like a planet and set a background image like space. It definitely very good idea, but I have not been able to find a tutorial of how this is done (only some clips in youtube of people who have done this and a plugin, but it is not known to work work 12.04 version of Ubuntu). I have set my settings of compiz manager, so I have a sphere now, but I need some help with the images that I need to set. Has anyone idea how these pictures should be created and who the compiz will concatenate them?

  • How is intermediate data organized in MapReduce?

    - by Pedro Cattori
    From what I understand, each mapper outputs an intermediate file. The intermediate data (data contained in each intermediate file) is then sorted by key. Then, a reducer is assigned a key by the master. The reducer reads from the intermediate file containing the key and then calls reduce using the data it has read. But in detail, how is the intermediate data organized? Can a data corresponding to a key be held in multiple intermediate files? What happens when there is too much data corresponding to one key to be held by a single file? In short, how do intermediate partitions differ from intermediate files and how are these differences dealt with in the implementation?

  • Did You Know? More online seminars!

    - by Kalen Delaney
    I am in Tucson again, having just recorded two more online workshops to be broadcast by SSWUG. We haven't set the dates yet, but we are thinking about offering a special package deal for the two of them. The topics really are related and I think they would work well together. They are both on aspects of Query Processing. The first was on how to interpret Query Plans and is an introduction to the topic. However, it only includes a discussion of how SQL Server actually processes your queries. For example,...(read more)

  • I am not speaking at SQL Connections February 2011 meeting in Chicago suburbs

    - by Alexander Kuznetsov
    Usually it is an honor when we get to present to a user group, but not this time, so let me explain. I have no idea how my presentation got briefly mentioned in the invitation which went out today, without my consent. I have never asked or agreed to speak at SQL Connections February 2011 meeting in Chicago suburbs. Yet I apologize for any inconvenience it might have caused. I was going to speak at the meeting of December 2010, which was agreed by email with the person in charge. I had spent some...(read more)

  • Stopping duplicate H1 and title from dynamic content

    - by codemonkey
    I have a web site where there are lots of dynamically (database driven) created pages. These pages are basically used to show uploaded images The pages look a bit like this URL: http://www.mywebsite.com/page-id/page-title/ H1: View from the sea This is a big issue because I might have 10 other pages with the title: 'View from the sea'. I know the simple solution would be to make sure the pages are named differently but I have lots of users on the web site so it's not that simple. What do you guys think to putting the page-id with the page-title in the H1 tag? So it might read 437 - View from the sea. I need to differentiate the h1 titles. I think using the page-id would help but if anyone has a better solution that would be great! Thanks in advance

  • How SQL Saturday could be better

    - by AaronBertrand
    I've been to a lot of SQL Saturdays. They are great events to attend - from a community standpoint, from a learning standpoint, and from a speaker growth standpoint. Who could ask for more, right? Great sessions, from passionate speakers willing to both teach and learn, fantastic networking opportunities and lunch. All for free, or at a very low cost - some events need to recover costs and charge $10 for lunch. Still a phenomenal bargain IMHO. But we all know that these events aren't perfect... there...(read more)

  • How do you navigate and refactor code written in a dynamic language?

    - by Philippe Beaudoin
    I love that writing Python, Ruby or Javascript requires so little boilerplate. I love simple functional constructs. I love the clean and simple syntax. However, there are three things I'm really bad at when developing a large software in a dynamic language: Navigating the code Identifying the interfaces of the objects I'm using Refactoring efficiently I have been trying simple editors (i.e. Vim) as well as IDE (Eclipse + PyDev) but in both cases I feel like I have to commit a lot more to memory and/or to constantly "grep" and read through the code to identify the interfaces. As for refactoring, for example changing method names, it becomes hugely dependent on the quality of my unit tests. And if I try to isolate my unit tests by "cutting them off" the rest of the application, then there is no guarantee that my stub's interface stays up to date with the object I'm stubbing. I'm sure there are workarounds for these problems. How do you work efficiently in Python, Ruby or Javascript?

  • Down Time

    - by andyleonard
    Introduction Every now and then, everyone needs a break. How do we respond when community leaders need a break? How should we respond? It's Normal People are cyclic animals - humans are diurnal by nature. We eat at regular intervals and are most comfortable when things go according to schedule. This is the lizard brain in action. So it's perfectly normal for community volunteers and leaders to engage in cycles of activity and inactivity in the community. It is, after all, another cycle. We rely on...(read more)

  • A Year of Tuesdays: T-SQL Tuesday Meta-Roundup

    - by Adam Machanic
    Just over a year ago I kicked off T-SQL Tuesday , "a recurring, revolving blog party." The idea was simple: Each month a blog will host the party, and about a week before the second Tuesday of the month a theme will be posted. Any blogger that wishes to participate is invited to write a post on the chosen topic. The event is called "T-SQL Tuesday", but any post that is related to both SQL Server and the theme is fair game . So feel free to post about SSIS, SSRS, Java integration, or whatever other...(read more)

  • Consistency of DirectX models

    - by marc wellman
    Is there a way to check the consistency of a DirectX model (.x) ? Whilst compiling .x files with XNA GameStudio 3.1 compilation is aborted with the following error message: Error 2 Could not read the X file. The file is corrupt or invalid. Error code: D3DXFERR_PARSEERROR. C:\WFP\Browser\Content\m.x KiviBrowser Some models compile correctly without any error/warning and some abort as described. The files of each model have several thousand lines. I am creating the files in Googles SketchUp 8 where they all look fine and don't show any sign of corruption. Suppose I have such a model my XNA compiler won't compile because their is an inconsistency somewhere in the file - how could I identify this in order to correct it ?
