• Do you have Standard Operating Procedures in place for SQL?

  - by Jonathan Kehayias

  The last two weeks, I have been Active Duty for the Army completing the last phase of BNCOC (Basic Non-Commissioned Officers Course) for my MOS (Military Occupational Specialty).  While attending this course a number of things stood out to me that have practical application in the civilian sector as well as in the military.  One of these…

• Building a Flash Platformer

  - by Jonathan O

  I am basically making a game where the whole game is run in the onEnterFrame method. This is causing a delay in my code that makes debugging and testing difficult. Should programming an entire platformer in this method be efficient enough for me to run hundreds of lines of code? Also, do variables in flash get updated immediately? Are there just…

• Does the tempdb Log file get Zero Initialized at Startup?

  - by Jonathan Kehayias

  While working on a problem today I happened to think about what the impact to startup might be for a really large tempdb transaction log file.  Its fairly common knowledge that data files in SQL Server 2005+ on Windows Server 2003+ can be instant initialized, but the transaction log files can not.  If this is news to you see the…

• Configuring SQL Server Audit Logging with Powershell

  - by Jonathan Kehayias

  One of the standard configuration options that I set on all SQL Server installs is to log Failed Login Attempts to the SQL Server Error Log.  I recently inherited an environment that this option wasn’t standardized across all of the servers and needed to configure it for multiple servers in a scripted manner.  There are a couple…

• An XEvent a Day (28 of 31) – Tracking Page Compression Operations

  - by Jonathan Kehayias

  The Database Compression feature in SQL Server 2008 Enterprise Edition can provide some significant reductions in storage requirements for SQL Server databases, and in the right implementations and scenarios performance improvements as well.  There isn’t really a whole lot of information about the operations of database compression…

• Has the SQL Community Lost its Focus?

  - by Jonathan Kehayias

  Yesterday, Thomas LaRock’s blog post, WMI Code Creator , was brought to my attention by a member of the SQL Community.  I subscribe to Tom’s blog in my blog reader so eventually I’d like to think that his post would have come to my attention, but to be perfectly honest, I have been to busy with other obligations lately that have…

• BDD/TDD vs JAD?

  - by Jonathan Conway

  I've been proposing that my workplace implement Behavior-Driven-Development, by writing high-level specifications in a scenario format, and in such a way that one could imagine writing a test for it. I do know that working against testable specifications tends to increase developer productivity. And I can already think of several…

• An XEvent a Day (26 of 31) – Configuring Session Options

  - by Jonathan Kehayias

  There are 7 Session level options that can be configured in Extended Events that affect the way an Event Session operates.  These options can impact performance and should be considered when configuring an Event Session.  I have made use of a few of these periodically throughout this months blog posts, and in today’s…

• Does tempdb Get Recreated From model at Startup?

  - by Jonathan Kehayias

  In my last post Does the tempdb Log file get Zero Initialized at Startup? I questioned whether or not tempdb is actually created from the model database or not at startup.  There is actually an easy way to prove that this statement, at least internally to the tempdb database is in fact TRUE.  Many thanks go out to…

• D key not working on Ubuntu

  - by Jonathan

  For some inexplicable reason the capital d key on my Ubuntu system is no longer producing output. Hitting caps lock and then d produces a D. I've tried multiple keyboards and the issue is the same. There's nothing bound to Shift+d under System Preferences Keyboard Shortcuts. xev produces the following: shift + a …

• How to share problem solving knowledge in a multiteam group?

  - by jonathan

  I've been working in multiteam groups for as long as I'm a webdeveloper, for me a team can be a lonely soldier or several people, generally a company will have multiple teams working in different projects and once the project is out in the wild, any team can perform the maintenance. This is a small picture since…

• How do I remap the buttons on an Apple Mighty Mouse?

  - by Jonathan.

  I just started using Ubuntu instead of Windows, my initial reaction was "omg this is awful", but after a while it grew on me, and I don't plan on going back to Windows. However I have an Apple Mighty Mouse which I was given today, and the buttons on it don't quite work. Left and right click work, so does scrolling…

• Cannot boot Ubuntu 12.04 on Lenovo V570 fresh install

  - by Jonathan

  I just did a fresh install of Kubuntu 64 bit 12.04 (from the DVD) to a Lenovo V570 laptop. I did a dual boot install with Windows 7. I used the boot layout leftover from Linux Mint 12 (which was working). The installation finished with what seemed to be a success. However, when rebooting, I get this error:…

  This is somewhat of a continuation post to my previous blog post, “Some thoughts on Interviweing…” .  Now that you survived the interview process, what do you do?  This is a common area of discomfort for people interviewing for  any kind of job, not just positions dealing with SQL Server. …

• Why the recent shift to removing/omitting semicolons from Javascript?

  - by Jonathan

  It seems to be fashionable recently to omit semicolons from Javascript. There was a blog post a few years ago emphasising that in Javascript, semicolons are optional and the gist of the post seemed to be that you shouldn't bother with them because they're unnecessary. The post, widely cited, doesn't give any…

• Is true multithreading really necessary?

  - by Jonathan Graef

  So yeah, I'm creating a programming language. And the language allows multiple threads. But, all threads are synchronized with a global interpreter lock, which means only one thread is allowed to execute at a time. The only way to get the threads to switch off is to explicitly tell the current thread to…

• Is a program linked against an LGPL library in linux still under GPL?

  - by Jonathan Henson

  If I were to write say, an embeded linux video server, how much of the code do I have to offer to someone who requests the source? Do I have to offer the code that directly links against the GPL covered code or do I have to offer all code? For instance, if I use gstreamer, or any other LGPL…

• Implementing the transport layer for a SIP UAC

  - by Jonathan Henson

  I have a somewhat simple, but specific, question about implementing the transport layer for a SIP UAC. Do I expect the response to a request on the same socket that I sent the request on, or do I let the UDP or TCP listener pick up the response and then route it to the correct transaction…

• how difficult to add vibration/feedback to a open source driving game

  - by Jonathan Day

  Hi, I'm looking to use SuperTuxKart as a basis for a PhD research project. A key requirement for the game is to provide vibration feedback through the controller (obviously dependant on the controller itself). I don't believe that the game currently includes this feature and I'm trying to…

• Alternatives to Project Euler for improving Excel ability

  - by Jonathan Deamer

  I've recently been enjoying using the mathematical problems listed at Project Euler to learn Python. My Excel ability is better than my Python, but I think I'd still benefit from the sort of inductive learning that comes with solving a series of increasingly difficult puzzles using a…
