Pythian, in the guise of Alex Gorbachev, is organising the annual Oracle Bloggers meetup at Openworld, but if you qualify they’d like you to sign up.
After the success of the last Oracle/SQL Server discussion, James Murtagh of Redgate has arranged another online discussion – this time about the different ways in which temporary tables are implemented and used. As before I’ll be doing the Oracle bit and Grant Fritchey will be doing the SQL Server bit.
Update: Now that the event is over, you can listen to the recording at this URL.
WordPress 3.4.2 has been released. You can see the bug fixes in the changelog and download from the usual place.
Happy upgrading.
Cheers

Here’s a (camouflaged) constraint definition I came across a little while ago in a production system:
create table t1 ( v1 varchar2(10), constraint c1 check (v1 = 'A' or v1 = null) );
Quick question – will the following insert statement work or return an error ?
insert into t1 values('B');
The answer is that the row gets inserted – and that’s probably not an intended result.
It’s amazing how often NULL rears its ugly head as the cause of unexpected behaviour. Remember that a constraint accepts a value if the constraint does not evaluate to false. If you put ‘B’ into the constraint definition above, we get:
'B' = 'A' or 'B' = null hence FALSE or NULL hence NULL
