6/2/2008 5:30:28 AM

all i know is that you can't change the fact that sata is either 150 or 300mbps and eide is 133mbps.

What the hell is in that database? lol

6/2/2008 5:42:17 AM

it's our department's system inventory database

6/2/2008 5:48:19 AM

Lies, it's your porn database.

6/2/2008 5:53:33 AM

damn, you caught me :\

that's the only thing blobs are good for dontchaknow

6/2/2008 5:55:05 AM

the biggest problem is the audit table

we track every single change made to the db
there are over 10 million rows in that table alone

6/2/2008 6:10:56 AM

Meh.

6/2/2008 7:05:13 AM

^do you not know where i work? we are a major BI company, lol

6/2/2008 8:31:12 AM

i though you lived/worked from your parents basement

6/2/2008 8:32:54 AM

yeah.. you guys can bust on evan all you want, but when it comes to jobs...

its pretty much safe to say that 98% of you couldn't get a 15 minute quiz interview over the phone for his company.

6/2/2008 8:38:42 AM

6/2/2008 8:50:52 AM

you'd get in qfred. not dissin any of the megaleets like dr havoc

or anyone at like cisco or sun

6/2/2008 8:58:49 AM

^tr00f

6/2/2008 9:00:40 AM

or any of the huge wireless technology companies based here in greensboro, those leet motherfuckers could probably.... hack it... too

6/2/2008 9:01:57 AM

dint qfred work at some financial firm in charlotte?

6/2/2008 9:03:22 AM

im really not sure

i know where a few people here work, but never talk about where. i knew evan was at cisco but didnt say anything till i saw him mentioning buildings there and stuff. so figured he didnt care

but not a big fan of mixing career and tww at all, so i wouldnt tell anyone elses job

6/2/2008 9:06:48 AM

^you mean sas?

[Edited on June 2, 2008 at 9:08 AM. Reason : although i wouldn't mind working at cisco either]

6/2/2008 9:07:30 AM

i worked for a financial services startup

now i work for a different financial services startup

i don't see myself working at any company that big. i don't have the attention span for waterfall

[Edited on June 2, 2008 at 9:10 AM. Reason : agile ftw]

6/2/2008 9:09:45 AM

yeah i meant sas, i had cisco on the brain thinking about a couple other people on here.

something you said tipped me off before, then you were talking about building T one day and i figured you didnt care if people knew where you worked.
