Wonderful news to make my weekend worth while.

I've just been advised that as of next Wednesday July 1, I will be without a job. My current job is in IT, working on Oracle databases, Oracle Forms, SQL*Plus.

If anyone knows of suitable work please let me know via PM.

TIA

I was thinking of subcontracting someone to develop a few Oracle DB procedures to work with an online application I'm developing for a client, still waiting on the tender to be approved first though, but if it comes through, I might have some freelance work?

SQL Server db admin here.. in 2005 there's visual studio, but you can still write in t-sql which is preferable. Had to do a oracle to sqlsrv migration recently, and that was a pain in the ass. But i'm sure you'll be fine as you sound pretty experienced in oracle.. and yep sqlserver just another rdbms.

i mean if someone is going to pay you to do sql server and code etc then go for it

but as far as managing it, adminstration of it etc oracle is better and bulletproof on solaris

SQL server is easy to admin, but there are some limitations of things you just cannot tune.

Where in Oracle, there is much more to tune but it also relatively harder to admin.

Paulr33 have you worked with SQL server? Or just Oracle?

90% of my work has been with SQL server admin, but I've programmed in both SQL server and Oracle, I'm not a full-time DBA though....

From a programming point of view, in the past Oracle used to be awesome due to the fact that you could program in triggers, stored procedures etc. But these days MSSql and MySQL have caught up to the tech. The only issue is with the OS's they're implemented, but even that these days is pretty good. Personally the only thing I've come across that the latter two engines suck at is that they're slightly slower in calculating hashes and reindexing etc.

have done both, not as much sql server

it just seems to standard and out of the box

and any retard can get them self into trouble really easily from assumptions etc

whereas oracle you really need to know whats going on to tune it properly

very poweful when done properly

we did an oracle 10g rac cluster on solaris, it was ace

    • That's f**ked up. I'd guess it's more likely that you have an entire S13 subframe in there. Does it still have HICAS mounting points? Seeing as it is quite possible that yours is the only such converted car in the world, you'll probably struggle to find someone who can tell you from direct experience. 'Twere I you, I'd be looking for 4 stud Skyline rear brakes and convert back. At a minimum. Preferably go find all the stuff you need to put it back to 5 stud (assuming you're happy to change wheels) and upgrade to some decent brakes. You don't even need much stock stuff. Don't need calipers or rotors, as you can go fully aftermarket. Just needs hubs and the other bits and bobs that are different to what you have now.
    • The engine has nothing to do with it. The physical space behind the headlight is the limiting factor. And the height. The height of the NS70 is the same as stock. So the clamp bar across the top goes on nice. The battery tray is big enough for it to sit on. The X is for extra capacity - it has even more lead in it than the non-X NS70. Heavy f**ker. But it's not a track car, so I will suffer a couple of extra kg. In the case of the R34, maybe the physical space there is not as deep (forward-backward, not up down). Hence why they say the 60 is the biggest. But I would never trust a catalogue to tell me what will fit. I have the car. I have the existing battery. I have the tape measure. I have the dimensions of all the available batteries. I find the biggest box that will go in. (With the right terminals in the right places, of course).  
    • Hello! I have been having a hard time finding the answer to this question… I have a R32 GTS-T Sedan than has been 4 lug swapped using S13 hubs, rotors, and brakes. The front has also been converted to S13 suspension.    When the swap was completed, the handbrake cables were never hooked up, as the S13 rear calipers are the “handbrake”, and not the typical drum on rotor that the R chassis are. Does anyone know handbrake cables that will work for this conversion? I’d like to not use a hydraulic handbrake and stick with the traditional cable style. My original thoughts were to go with S14 cables and try to make them work, since I’m pretty sure S13 cables will be too short.    Any help would be appreciated!
    • I did some research, considering you have a neo engine, how is that battery compatible? I checked centuries website and super cheap and says it's not compatible. Only this full size one is. https://www.centurybatteries.com.au/products/ns60-mf
    • No, lets be honest here. I went to Winton and did a track day, for all the mods and V8 power and craziness I posted up a time that a K24 stock motor Honda Accord can do on the same tyres (narrower, too) 250kw and learning how to drive the f**kin thing is the sweet spot.
