@WowTerrifying You can just about hear the shark saying "ohshitohshitohshitohshit" as it swam away.

@cathrinew It does look like me, but the kitten is cuter...

@cathrinew @tjaybelt Good stuff. I'm going to have to see how I can work with pomodoro. The concept is great, but much of my day is spent in meetings that others schedule.

Check out this blog post about VM price/perf aka.ms/AzureSQLVMPric…

@cathrinew Virtual hugs. Looking forward to all of those things as well. The future will be interesting.

@natalie20005 @SQLHA @seannalexander @SCAutomation Is that "MySQL Server" or "My SQLServer"?

@SQLHA @seannalexander @SCAutomation MySql sounds like a win..... you find it distasteful? hahaha

For the 1,000,000th time: you have servers (VMs, physical) that run instances of SQL Server. SQL is not a product. It's a language. You DO NOT HAVE SQL SERVERS FFS

@anniehedgie @shanselman As a person with a few more years than that, I can tell you with confidence that there will ALWAYS be things you don't know. As senior engineers, we need to model the behavior of publicly asking questions and being supportive when answering.

@shanselman Idk, as a person who’s only 4.5 yrs into my tech career, there are questions everyday that I’m afraid to ask because they expose a gap in my understanding or that I’m missing something foundational since I’m a career changer. Then if I decide to ask, I feel dumb about it all day.

Later in career engineers, listen up! Kat has facts here. It's OUR JOB to answer questions. It's the job of early in career devs to ASK THEM. A good question is a gift! Take it as one and give back both the give of listening but also the gift of a patient and thoughtful answer.

@DBArgenis Popped a barrel-aged imperial stout that I’ve been saving for a while. It’s amazing, just like this day!

@JoeSackMSFT ❤️

This. This is how we survive and conquer this thing. Such spirit is amazing.

@cathrinew These are difficult times for everyone, and especially for those already fighting depression. Take care of yourself. You're important and very much valued. You inspire many of us.

We beat our deadline to ensure those that had not removed CU7 could have a reliable path forward, so #SQLServer2019 CU8 is now available. See the announcement post and the note there. techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/sql-server/…

@cathrinew I think you speak for a lot of us. We’re driven to accomplish a lot, so walking away from tasks is hard.

Another awesome video about Azure SQL Edge.
