Am I the only one who does this? Algorithmically, social media is designed to be rage-inducing — deliberately, cynically — in order to get more clicks and show you more ads. And it’s ripping apart society.

Earlier this week, I blogged about the automatic cleanup process that purges old data from the SSIS catalog logging tables. This nightly process removes data for operations that are older than 365 days. While this is useful, many SSIS admins have complained that this process is very slow and contentious on large or busy SSISDB databases. In this post, I’ll.

Why Technical Debt Matters for Product People. As the person in charge of the product, you may not be terribly concerned about how clean and well-structured the code is. But the quality of your product matters: It directly impacts your ability to achieve strategic product goals and make your products successful: Technical debt makes it hard to experiment with new ideas, release new features, and quickly respond to user feedback.

For starters, let me just say there’s no problem with story points. Story points are a way of expressing the relative sizes of stories. They can be helpful for short-term planning of software development activities. Unfortunately, sometimes people get hung up on the numbers, and they lose track of the substance. People can get into the habit of repeating the buzzwords and marketing phrases that go along with a particular named or branded Thing.

The following scene is one of the most pivotal moments in the Game of Thrones series. As a loyal viewer , this scene represents a turning point for Tyrion. He has reached a breaking point after a lifetime of conflict with his father. His speech is the moment that he sets out on a different path, a path that ultimately leads to (spoiler) the murder his father and (unsurprisingly) a deep schism with his family.

When doing any new development or major overhaul of existing SSIS architecture, I almost always recommend to clients that they deploy those packages to the SSIS catalog. Using the catalog to store and execute SSIS packages takes a lot of the manual work out of development and maintenance, particularly when it comes to package logging. When you execute a package.

We’ve all heard it or even seen the stats to back it up: The volume of data generated each minute grows exponentially. In fact, if IDC’s predictions are to be believed, the world will eclipse the 170 zettabyte threshold by 2025. That’s five times what was created in 2018. For that reason, there has never been a bigger opportunity for businesses to gain proactive insights into all the information available to them.

In slide #9 of this deck about using cycle time analytics in forecasting, Troy Magennis shows that when four people plan to meet for dinner, there is only one chance in 16 that all four will arrive on time. Typical corporate management thinking would solve this problem by creating a Department of Dinner Planning and promulgating detailed procedures, based on Industry Best Practices, to ensure people arrived on time for each dinner.

At the far end of an out-of-the-way aging strip shopping center in southern Louisiana, there stands a small and modest sushi restaurant. The exterior could be described as tasteful minimalistic: there are no big signs, no flashy advertising, and the word “fancy” would never be used to describe it. Inside, it is a small space, seemingly purposeful in its meager.

Domo’s Chris Willis explores the biggest problem in your company that no one wants to talk about. Maybe Machiavelli was right. The thought crept into my head as I sat at my tiny desk overlooking Wall Street. It was a bright fall afternoon, but doubt and the ancient advice of that nearly 500-year-old treatise began to cloud my optimism. The project I’d been working on was a simple chat tool to connect ideas and people across a global bank.

Warning: Preachy content. In working with technical people at the individual and team levels, I often find attitudes that pull toward one extreme or the other: Either our work is inherently uninteresting, and we’re only in it for the paycheck; or our work is a boundless source of joy, learning, and achievement through which we can transcend the human condition.

Servant leadership is a term that’s been around for decades. While it can sometimes feel overused or outdated, I believe the principles of servant leadership remain as relevant today as they’ve ever been. For example, a 2017 Gallup workplace poll found that roughly two-thirds of American employees are either not engaged or are actively disengaged from their work.
