Hey - hug your loved ones for me. You never know how much time you have left with them, don't miss a moment

I love my echo chamber where everyone values the humanity of other people and enjoys the arts.

In tech, just like in life, small data points can create big changes.
Data is the key to unlocking endless possibilities.
Every byte of data tells a story.
Be the one who uses it for good.

Hello, Bluesky 👋 What better way to celebrate my first post than to share that we released SSMS 21 Preview 5 today! Yeehaw! Check it out and let us know what you think 😀

Trying the MSSQL extension in VSCode for the first time. I feel like I'm missing a stack of useful other features (like SQL Prompt) but so far so good!

It looks like the end of Azure Data Studio. Surprising stuff as I always felt that it was eventually going to replace SSMS.

I spent a bit of time programming for fun and learning python over the last few days. I remember why I fell in love with it all now!

Work pressure and politics drained me and killed my ambition in 2024.

Onwards into a more focused 2025!

Looks like SQL2025 could be an exciting release!

First time in ages using Redgate Source Control and Compare for some on prem SQL deployments.I'd forgotten how good they are. So easy to just grab and use and get stuff done.

As Twitter continues its decline, I'm going to spend more time here.

I rarely post here, but when I do it's out of frustration with Azure. Today is seemingly Data Factory's turn to make me regret my career choices.

This 40-year-old interview with Sandy White, creator of landmark isometric open-world survival-horror game Ant Attack, is fascinating. Lots of period insights about a game that really was absolutely astonishing for its time. Blew my mind when I first saw and played it in late 83.

I swear that the more I learn about Azure, the less I know!
