    Of course, the most important thing is not that someone might be lacking the requisite skills, it’s that they’re cheap.

    “Never mind the quality feel the width” as they used to say.

    Sometimes I think IT is in a crisis that it’s just not aware of.

    Contraversial is not being able to spell controversial – duh!
    If that’s not lacking the “requisite skills”, I don’t know what is.
    Silly me.

      OK, you got me. How can you tell I was writing something about dbms_advanced_rewrite? It’s still in draft state! Is it a wordpress thing?

      Its an enterprise edition option and (like compression) fundamentally annoying to me when I have to work with Standard edition

        Well, it’s either dbms_advanced_rewrite, or, as a friend of mine (architect for a largish bureaucratic organisation) was recently told: “stop whinging and buy faster hardware” 🙂
