Final Fantasy XIV Database - Ffxivpro.com

Are you saying that Rooks needs help for that trivia game to be made?

ftfy

5 minutes and 10 lines of code later, they'll be spotted making spaghetti.

After many to many of these posts when Rooks realizes LoserJ is the digital soul mate he never wanted but sorely needed...he'll then receive a parallel reference (obviously), and place him in the Moderator Table?

As we all know; if mistakes can be made, we'll be making them.

Look man, I'm just a programmer that gets a little too excited about things like databases

And I do personally like using many-to-many when it accurately represents the data I'm working with

But I no longer work in a small IT team in a small company, so I don't have to ever deal with designing the data base anymore

I just query it

I do kind of miss having free reign(to an extent, at least more than I do now) over database design and stuff like that though :/

yeah.... how long is this going to go on for?

/yawns

just make lolserj a mod already so that we can start dumping on him

I have one join that I actually have to pull data with about 2-3 times a week depending on deadlines. Just always so busy that I never have time to actually look at it. ;.;

I suppose in this case it would have probably been better

I would have essentially had some ArbitraryColumnName_FK column that would contain say the following string: 12453,1920,63421,4209

All the numbers referring to different IDs, sometimes all of them were talking about IDs for things in one table, which wasm't bad to deal with after having to do it 3-4 times

Sometimes it would instead be 1253T1,4321T2,84911T3,371828T7 which was just *** annoying

You learn so much more from horrible projects than you do from good ones.


If you've got a many to many to wrangle then the performance boat left the dock some time ago. I have yet to see a problem where many-to-many was the correct model for the data (performance wise).

Oh that report you tasked me with is taking longer than you expected? I'M SORRY I HAVEN'T HAD TO DEAL WITH THIS MANY TO MANY SET UP LIKE MANY TO ONE *** YOU PIECE OF ***, yeah you know what would make it easier and probably make it take less time? USING SOME *** JOINS

Oh why is that page so slow? You don't remember telling me to put that SQL I wrote that had to parse through comma seperated *** into a for loop that probably has 2000 *** iterations? You don't know why that might be running slow? YOU PIECE OF ***


YOU UNZIPPED ME SPATH

I FORGOT ALL ABOUT IT AND YOU UNZIPPED ME

You learn about a lot of random STUFF you probably otherwise would not have had to use if you didn't have stupid *** to work around

I honestly have to say that I did become much better at SQL after having to deal with a poorly designed database

So maybe you're lucky enough to have one as well

Try *** around with joins at some point, if you haven't

And try to look at various tables and documentation, like a data model, if it exists and you can access it.

You can learn a lot just *** around in a database

Just don't do any inserts or deletes

Or drops

Yeah that scene is amazing. Especially since people do seriously act that way

Tabs wouldn't be an issue for me, but sometimes when I have SQL Server make a quick script for me to select from a table ***will be all over the place spacing wise, and the same can be said for visual studio at times, and probably other IDEs as well, and it can be irritating to hit the tab key and have it not line up with something someone else or something else wrote up

I use spaces because I'm OCD and it seems to be the only thing that guarentees I get everything to have the spacing I like (usually 4 for indents), but I try to make sure I have neat spacing, indenting, and that things are on the lines I want them to be on

I do really light database queries, nothing that could ever be considered full on coding. Closest I get is Access databases and even those ones are incredibly basic for me at this point. ._. I am no coder. I am a sham.

Stab

But I don't remember, do you code at all Spath?

I think I remember you mentioning queries at one point

Tab v Space

Which camp do you fall in? You will be judged....harshly

Well actually maybe not

Because if Rooks gets off on *** with people he might have you never use Objects and script everything out into big files with code constantly being repeated

But that's honestly fine as long as you know why what you're doing is bad to do

Which you might not

At my last job I brought up refactoring and got laughed at because it would be a waste of time (but having to go through 20 files to change one function wasn't) and that using junction tables wouldn't be better than using comma seperated lists because they have too much data, and I'm still trying to figure that one out

But sometimes you have to listen to your boss, no matter how bad it is

1-800-FFX-IAHR doesn't work?!

I thought that was Rook's direct line!

WHO HAVE I BEEN CALLING?!

I mean anything programming related you can put on a resume for programming jobs typically looks better than nothing

But I don't know how easy it would be to get Rooks' phone number for reference calls

yadda yadda

/tears up
ok then...You can have PARKER on tuesdays and thursdays and every other weekend...

@:55

Does it look good on a resume?

That hasn't been a requirement for some time now

It's Chinese Wednesday!

PARKER!!!! shore up the great wall and prepare for the mongolian horde!
