Too tired to post much right now.<\/p>\n
I skipped the keynote this morning, the BI just doesn’t interest me that much. Also missed the morning session to hit the vendor hall, since I couldn’t last night.<\/p>\n
The MVP book signing occurred around midday. Must have been around 200 books to sign. Funniest part was the comments from the other authors, putting a sql-related spin on the long queue and pile of books. Overheard “Looks like the input buffer’s filling up down there”<\/p>\n
Also skipped the first of the afternoon sessions to sit in the “Ask the Experts” area and chat with a couple of the devs on topics around statistics. There was something I needed to clarify before my session tomorrow. Unfortunately the dev who worked on that are wasn’t there. Hopefully there’ll be some mail around lunchtime tomorrow with the answer.<\/p>\n
My session on indexing went ok. Not fantastic, but ok. Will see if stats goes better tomorrow.<\/p>\n
For the last session I sat in on a discussion on xquery. Starting to understand how that works, need to play more though. Don’t really agree on the ‘use xml for tables with changing column definitions’ though.<\/p>\n
Photos tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
