This is a conference with mandatory presence! So what if it’s a climate conference? We’re not in a pandemic anymore. Grow up! /s
Learn to enjoy the rest of the time during the boondoggle. And most of the time the company is paying for it anyway.
I just love how some things cost astronomical amounts of money just because academia or the company is supposed to cover those expenses and nobody sane is not going to buy that for themselves anyway :(
Heck, the events I present at are a freaking fantastic time - so much so that the hardest part is getting in to present.
Are you in the magician’s guild?
SQL Server. Dozens of free events a year, one in most major cities, 20-40 Sessions/Presenters, token payment that covers lunch (and ensures attendance).
The main event (PASS Summit) is held yearly, has 150 to 200 presentations/presenters, and presenters admission is free. It’s a community event and it’s freaking fantastic.
What I’m hearing is that you’re not NOT in the magicians guild…
I don’t know what the opposite of magic is, but SQL Server is that.
Are you kidding me? Why did the performance on this query start sucking this morning. Was it statistics? Plan recompilation? Plan sniffing? Bad plan? Somebody else running queries on the same spindles? Oh, it’s certainly magic.
I guess curses count as magic, too
