Good morning

@RandiVertongen Hi, Not too cold?

Randi Vertongen

8:49 AM

@TomV Yes, the Air conditioning is good :p.

9:27 AM

We should be reaching 27 °C in the office today. Luckily I only have to endure this until Tuesday evening. After that I'll be working at the annual OpenAir St.Gallen outside. :-)

@hot2use like fixing the queries of Die Ärzte live, on the stage?

Fixing queries in the open air? Haven't done that yet

10:10 AM

@dezso Could try. Problem is, it's already a Result Set on stage.

Randi Vertongen

10:34 AM

@hot2use That is rough, how do you get any work done?

10:49 AM

@RandiVertongen Not more than usual :D

@RandiVertongen different work

@hot2use I see, you are throwing the rowdies out

What is a group of DBAs called? I was thinking cluster but they don't actually work together, do they?

a quorum?

1:14 PM

Depends really. If users are close I imagine a murder would work well

Or if it's been a bad Friday

@Forrest AA?

Forrest

@dezso Ahahahaha!

Cade Roux

1:38 PM

@ypercubeᵀᴹ No, I got it using that technique. I just hadn't seen that technique before.

@Forrest a normalization

@PeterVandivier Are you throwing a pencil or something?

Cade Roux

I think he's stabbing himself int he head

Nah he's shaving

-_-

@PeterVandivier See - now he's tired from all the shaving

1:49 PM

it was meant to be a salute to the fallen VM, the edit icon sort of messes with it

@George.Palacios lol

i can never remember which characters to escape

2:01 PM

@George.Palacios Must be a Philishave

@PeterVandivier Try a single line. You can't have formatting in a multi-line chat message.

\‾ (-` )` --> \‾ (- )

😂 computer says no

Formatting is hard

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

that one i can remember

\‾ (`-` )

Fixed-font formatting for the entire message seemed to work (the only kind of formatting applicable to multiple lines)

2:17 PM

@George.Palacios like van Gogh

What? Van Gogh painted with triple back-ticks?

no,
it's Ctrl-k

    ctrl-k
foo

:50794420 Doesn't really work when replying

\‾ (`-` ) --> \‾ (- )
\‾ (\`-\` ) --> \‾ (`-` )
