@ChsAddress @Zorro72765865 @DanRather Just like Wall St ‘served the country’ after their bail outs? What exactly was tied to those?

@Zorro72765865 @DanRather At least make the folks that take the forgiveness do something for this country. Serve the country. Bet the tune will change big time if there is something tied to it.

Let's have a nuanced debate on student loans, the cost of college, personal responsibility, & structural inequality. But if you’re raging against “government bailouts,” you may want to do a little Googling. A long list of groups have demanded handouts. First up: Wall Street.

@JLOracle @kylelf_ Not if it’s done by 100 different users.

@kylelf_ Very efficient statement run 100 times (avg) per second != very efficient application

1/2 Looking at the SQL_EXEC_ID from 17:01:53 to 17:46:55 this statement seems to have executed more than 300,000 times in 45 minutes, or 112 times per second - but capture only 21 samples. There are a couple of notes about ASH "stability" and accuracy and although ...

@JLOracle And how much DB time has it used ( from SQL stat)?

2/2 ... there's nothing conclusive in that little extract it shows hints of being an application that needs extra care with ASH data. What does the v$ash_info.dropped_sample_count look like ? Have you allowed for "in_parse" etc. numbers of child cursors, mutex waits/sleeps?

@JBeresniewicz @orcldoug I can!

Is anyone else of a certain age finding it uncanny how the daily news in the U.K. at the moment sounds like the 70s? A simplification but it’s nostalgic and not in a good way. Things have changed since Thatcher, though, so it might sound familiar but could be very different

@AnthonyCharlino @govkristinoem Whose GOD? Oh, surprise, you mean yours.

@govkristinoem I am sure you will hear from some hateful people. Remember it is only GOD S opinion that matters.

@JBeresniewicz Ouch!

@JD_1783 @thedailybeast There were no shots fired on 911, so that wasn’t a violent terrorist attack either.

@thedailybeast The only shot fired was from a US Gov handgun to kill an unarmed woman. So yeah, it was a violent terrorist attack against the public.

@cdacko @Bluertwo I’ll drink to that! 🥃

@Bluertwo Scotch

Beer, wine , or weed?

@mnorgaard @roberthendel @TarpCPH I always find that beer is much more effective when swallowed then thrown.

@roberthendel @TarpCPH Hvor er det klamt med det der ølkast. Kan nogen ikke opdrage på de knægte? Bare lidt? Superulækkert.

Mål, tror jeg nok … #ForDanmark #EURO2020

@oraclebase Never eat anything bigger than your head😀

In case you wanted to know, I made a massive burrito. It was so big I couldn't actually wrap it. It was more like a burrito bowl with the tortilla as the bowl. 😉

Just finished for the day. I feel a pig-out and a tantrum coming on.

@nlitchfield @richardfoote 1% of a 1B row table is still 10M rows. Not a good idea. Can easily lead to 10M+ single block iOS.

@richardfoote I'm going with "it doesn't" % of rows has nothing to do with anything much.

Fun Poll: At what estimated % of rows does the Oracle CBO automatically decide it too expensive to use an index and not consider associated index based access paths? (use comments if you think it another value). #Oracle #Indexing

Wishing you well, Louie! And thank you for standing with millions of women who don’t want you coming between them and decisions they make with their doctor. How about this: you stay out of their doctor’s office and we stay out of yours.

@Niall_McP @connor_mc_d Most I ever saw was 128 rows in DUAL. That system was not running well.

@connor_mc_d Back when we were beta-testing OracleV6 I decided to have some fun and, for some reason, imported DUAL with the APPEND option and ended up with two rows in DUAL! If I remember correctly, it took me almost a day to fix this. Luckily it wasn't a production environment.

AskTOM today: "I mistakenly dropped DUAL". No, not trying to belittle anyone...Just imploring people - please don't ever do any kind of database work as SYS or SYSTEM unless it is critical admin activities.

@stewartbryson @lofidewanto @connor_mc_d Well if you have already stored the data there you have already payed for it. Moving large volumes of data around networks to process in a procedural manner, rather than using set based in the database adds cost, complexity and time.

@lofidewanto @connor_mc_d Cheaper? On Oracle? 😏

When you say to me: "And we're going to do our data processing in the middle tier, because that's faster and cheaper than doing it in the database"

@dominic_giles All the best Dom. And be sure to drop by the coast for a beer and some 🦪 if you are in the Bay Area.

Today is my last day in Oracle (virtual). I’ll be moving on having enjoyed the almost 30 years of continued service. I'll leave knowing that I’ll miss the many colleagues who became friends and looking forward to making new friends out of future colleagues….

Hard to tell if I recorded this 30 years or 10 minutes ago...

@TanelPoder @JBeresniewicz @kylelf_ @oraclebase Thank you Tanel. Glad to be of service! Would have been nice to really follow through with more of the capabilities that the tech enabled.

If I were to give out Oracle DB-related awards, I’d give them to: 1) The group that invented ASH (@OracleGraham @JBeresniewicz @kylelf_ ) 2) @oraclebase for all his work helping me to not have to think too much when setting up stuff or quickly learning new features. #WFHawards

@JBeresniewicz @TanelPoder @kylelf_ @oraclebase Well there were session_wait scripts running well before Precise SQL.

@kevinclosson @JBeresniewicz @CacheFlush @mattkaberlein @BertrandDrouvot @fritshoogland 15 second average wait time, with little variance. I wonder who but the sleep(15000) in the code?
