Tuesday 11.04.2017 This morning I did some research into alert sev22-25, as I had no idea what those alerts actually related to. This is what I found out: Alerts 20-24: Indicate system problems and are fatal errors, which means that the Database Engine task that is executing a statement or batch is no longer running. The … Continue reading My Sixth Week at SQL Services

My Fifth Week at SQL Services
Tuesday 04.04.2017 This morning, while waiting for Kathryn to enter the office, I decided to tackle the initial diagrams for both of the replication alerts. This made me realize I know very little about replication. I started my hunt for information by looking through the replication alerts for the last 60 days, to see what … Continue reading My Fifth Week at SQL Services
My Fourth week at SQL Services
Tuesday 28.03.2017 I spent the morning watching more of the SQL Server transact SQL (basic data retrieval) videos. Again, I needed to do this intermittently as it becomes hard to focus on videos for such long periods of time. To allow myself a break from the videos, I did some further research into workflows and flowcharts. … Continue reading My Fourth week at SQL Services
My Third Week at SQL Services
Tuesday 21.03.2017 Today consisted of A LOT of spread sheets. Never have I spent so many hours organizing, colour coding and calculating in excel. I managed to sort my way through and get my head around some of the spread sheets guy sent me. One I found particularly useful was his ticket counts spreadsheet, which … Continue reading My Third Week at SQL Services

They had managed to continue working on the second Template install scenario from last Thursday, and had attended the third induction meeting where … Continue reading My Second Week at SQL Services
My First Week at SQL Services
Monday 06.03.2017 I was a strong mixture of excited and nervous to begin this first week at SQL Services. I knew I was going to learn a lot, but am always apprehensive when it comes to new environments. Well, there was no need for all of those nerves (there very rarely is). On Monday, Nadine, … Continue reading My First Week at SQL Services
The Internet of Things
To me this image captures the core of the internet of things perfectly: the virtual and the physical world get connected and fall into one world, allowing us to search the Internet for our car keys, to see when the kids get home if you are doing overtime at work, or to get a message … Continue reading The Internet of Things
What is real?
Virtual reality is a user-computer interface that involves real-time simulation and interactions through multiple sensorial channels. These sensorial channels are visual, auditory, tactile, smell, and taste. So what is real? Aren’t all of the factors above things which prove something is real? If I were to be asked what is real, they are definitely the … Continue reading What is real?
Interactive Design
Interactive design, what is this you may ask? It is the process of designing interactive products which support human communication and interaction in their everyday lives. The aim is to create user experiences while taking into account context of the products use, types of activities the product will be involved in, different user groups and … Continue reading Interactive Design
Copyright
In my eyes, the biggest issue with Copyright is that it’s out of date. Copyright laws were created before we had the same power of technology that we do today, technology which allows for much of the "infringing" behaviour that is happening in today’s day and age eg movie piracy. This quote by Andy Baio … Continue reading Copyright
