It's a bit old-fashioned perhaps but there's little functionally wrong or missing.

Content > Presentation

I agree

2 hours later…

Zikato

06:36

morning

I try to make up for what I lack in content in the presentation. I'd say it's 60/40 split :)

3 hours later…

Paul White

09:45

A good meme does go a long way

2 hours later…

Erik Darling

Paul White

no idea

Erik Darling

PWNI

there are so many typos in the xe self-documentation

i wonder how many are from sean

some are amusing

SHUTDOWN_NOT_SET
FAST_SHUTDOWN
ORDERLY_SHUTDOWN
NICE_SHUTDOWN
NO_EXIT_SHUTDOWN
JUST_EXIT_SHUTDOWN

Paul White

11:47

Those ring a bell. Aren't they related to how the SQL Server is asked to shut down?

e.g. by stopping the service, SHUTDOWN command etc.

And yes all typos are hand-crafted by Sean

Heirloom typos

Erik Darling

nice shutdown

Paul White

I wonder what those column store early inequality filters are about

Erik Darling

there were quite a few of them

i was looking for psp stuff

Paul White

oh so more than listed in the screenshot

Erik Darling

gist.github.com/erikdarlingdata/…

way more yeah

i wish that said rabbitmap

Paul White

11:57

@ErikDarling Some of that matches info in sqlperformance.com/2019/08/sql-performance/…

Might even be the same thing and not new at all

I write things down so I don't have to remember them

Erik Darling

but do you have any rabbitmaps

Paul White

24-carrot ones

I might have to look into this. I hope it's related to string performance improvements.

Erik Darling

i'd be lapin that up

Paul White

v good

Erik Darling

🥁

Paul White

12:11

Now I'm thinking about croque monsieur and welsh rabbit (rarebit)

Erik Darling

do like a rarebit

Paul White

You know that event really does look like just a new event to expose information about the existing feature (since 2016)

Is it Debug channel?

I don't have 2022 running rn

Erik Darling

not sure, hang on

Paul White

🪂

Erik Darling

hmm

it's weird how the stuff in sys.dm_xe_map_values doesn't match up to the actual session names

for example, in map values you have to look for psp_skipped_reason_enum but the session name is parameter_sensitive_plan_optimization_skipped_reason

Paul White

12:21

prolly a typo 😀

almost like they just throw this stuff together any old how eh

Erik Darling

is it too late to open a gym

Paul White

I don't know. What time do they usually close?

Erik Darling

Around covid 19

Paul White

right

Erik Darling

ahhhhhhh c'mon

Paul White

12:34

yep all good

Probably a risky venture to get into

Monkeypox etc (or whatever they rename it to)

Erik Darling

there was a ny times article recently about monkey pox

one of the people interviewed is someone who organizes sex parties

who requires guests to "check themselves for lesions" before coming

1. that seems like a good policy regardless of poxes

2. it's like the 80s all over again

Paul White

Agreed

Opened a Fusilier tonight

Erik Darling

you've had that before yeah?

Paul White

Yes

Erik Darling

hope it lives up then

Paul White

12:44

The last one was a longish time ago and a different year

Pretty confident we will agree this is the best of the bunch

Small margins though and each has a different style

Erik Darling

minus the pic-a-nic basket, boo boo

Vérace - Слава Україні

A chairde - Morning all!

Erik Darling

this must be a joke

someone's gonna hit me with a pie any second now

Paul White

Have you tried turning up the skewness

Erik Darling

for what

oh up, nevermind

Paul White

12:51

throws pie

Erik Darling

no skew here

Paul White

have you tried rebuilding your indexes to reduce fragmentation

but seriously check the stats histogram

Erik Darling

that was my first stop

it looks a whole lot like that

Paul White

well then

Erik Darling

Paul White

13:03

someone's getting the sack

Erik Darling

i'd like to speak to the manager

3 hours later…

Paul White

16:28

Lamak

16:49

did they assume its pronouns?

how politically incorrect

Erik Darling

i wonder when those will start ending up on tombstones

Paul White

Oh god I didn't even consider that aspect

reuters.com/lifestyle/oddly-enough/…

> "It was a pain in the ass, but I would call it a love-hate relationship because Explorer itself once dominated an era," he told Reuters.

Cade Roux

17:07

I would hardly imagine gendering IE.

I'm sure I called it many name, though.

Which had a bigger impact, though, IE or Windows 95 and the elimination of all the nonsense having to deal with WinSock.

Or networking generally

Erik Darling

i won't be impressed until i can rename a windows machine without rebooting

Cade Roux

You will never be impressed

Paul White

I don't recall IE ever asking for directions so it might well have been male

Erik Darling

it also didn't stop working for a week because you forgot its birthday

so perhaps it's a good dog

a very good dog

RIP, good dog

Paul White

interesting

it never kerbed the alloy wheels on my car either

so I guess it's an open question

1 hour later…

Erik Darling

18:40

alloy eh
