DataGard and RMAN has been fun. But when thats over I dont think I will see anything new under the sun.
Talked to some folks doing Real Application Clusters, Oracle Portal on 9iAS, EMC disk, Oracle Workflow and a lot of PL/SQL.
I know that RAC is a hot skill to have and see some demand for 9iAS.
What opinion do you have on these technologies? I am thinking its a great move but will involve a big learning curve ( wont see much of the summer ).
Summer in Denver is only 3 weeks long anyway, right?
Yes, but he is really in Boulder, so summer lasts all year long in the PRB (People's Republic of Boulder). And besides, the three weeks here is better than the one week you get in CT.
Whoah Steve,
First thanks for the script help the other week, but I did not realize your in Denver.
Denver rocks, its greener than maui right now.
Relived my childhood building a massive megaplex fort/swing/slide for my lit girl last weekend. Outside the whole time, and of course had to test the slide 20 times myself ;)
Chicago summer = 2 months usable before and after the heat
Denver summmer = 9 months usable
:)
Ooops looks like its time to hop on my mountain bike and go from 9000 ft to 10000.....
:D
Hey, I was in Connecticut in April and it felt like spring down there...the trees were budding, etc....Quote:

Just moved from Dayton OH to Colorado Springs. Now that was a good move. Only just getting used to being able to have the windows open.
I hear the hot technology in the Springs is hate.
9iAs and RAC is on top of the chart.
BTW it is HOT out here in Atlanta.
Cheers
HAH!! Real men ride in the mud, snow, rain and ice. There is nothing like East Coast winter riding.Quote:

All that thin air just creates less resistance and makes riding easier. ;)

You could be right there. Also, handing out speeding tickets is popular.Quote:

Slimdave,
I worked in columbus for 3 years after college and its the best place to live IF you want to avoid skin cancer. Colorado is the opposite sun,sun,sun. I took a flight home to chicago to sell my home, when I left the springs you could look out the big windows and see pikes peak, cavu ( clear above, visibility unlimited ). When I returned it was still cavu. The entire week in chicago I was in a funk because it was overcast.
Mr. Hanky,
True words indeed but just as the aircraft struggles to perform in the thin air so do my lungs :)
It was a very good ride indeed.
:D
I drove to the top of Pikes Peak on Saturday -- a great trip, but carrying one of my kids around at the summit reminded me of the good old days when i rolled my own smokes. Thought my lungs were collapsing.
Wish there was more commercial (non-defense) Oracle work in the Springs though. Anyone got a spare job?
I liked driving up and down the NJTP. It was like taking a smell tour of the state.
" Thought my lungs were collapsing."
LOL!
Yes the springs ora-work is priced horribly, really at the low end of the rate scale. Maybe you can get a gig in the tech center just watch monument hill when commuting. I was going to buy a 'house-and-a-hanger' in Elizabeth and fly to centennial for tech center work.
We drove out the house and it turned out to be a 'house-in-a-hanger' No way was she going for that, couple acres made a good runway.
Here from my DBA friend Trudy in The Republic of Boulder...
"Things just getting worse here. The office paper vendor came by yesterday and picked up all our paper supplies (they didn't just stop shipments they picked up what we had on hand). And one of the temp agencies we were getting people from came on site and escorted the temps out. They are going to abandon the buildings and leases that we are in and move us into the old Ecrix buildings and we might end up sitting in cubes in the warehouse. We are losing half our servers and should I go on?????"
"If you hear of any part or full time DBA positions let me know. "
Now, now, now...There's nice areas in New Jersey east of Hackensack. Oh wait, that's New York...Quote:

Well, my issue with the defence work is just that they're not too keen on foreign nationals down at USAF Space and Missile Command. I wonder why? Better get me that citizenship quick. And the Top Secret clearance.
What is this "tech center" of which you speak?
North I-25, throttle back when you see civilization ;)
Exit Arapahoe east
Oh, I think Canada would be too far for a daily commute ;)Quote:

Rightclick the smiley and property will tell you the source...
getting back to the weather and geography, we in New Hampshire are very sad these days. Our state symbol has collapsed after 4000 years.
The Old-Man-In-The-Mountain is on the license plates of our cars, our drivers licenses, road signs, official documents....everywhere.
However, it was Mother Nature who created our symbol and Mother Nature who dissolved it.

Thanks I appreciate that. It's nice to know that the database community is looking out for one another. Brings a tear to my eye.
