pl/sql is an abomination. oracle tried to turn sql into an imperative language for scripting. they really shouldn't have tried.

pl/sql is powerful in that it enables you to accomplish lots of things, even though it sucks. but most database people, and most people who like imperative scripting languages, have no idea that it's possible to distinguish between "powerful" and "good"

that is a reasonable way to do things in an environment where you need to strictly control any modifications to the database. i.e., you (the java dev) don't make any, you call stored procedures, they make any changes necessary

the main reason most developers hate stored procedures is that the dba won't grant them the necessary permissions for the cowboy coding they want to do in the database

I had to set a root cause analysis meeting where I pointed out that the problem (which resulted in losing billing for certain periods) was related to the original PL/SQL code and that there was no point in writing Java workarounds when the originating code could be fixed relatively easily. That's really frustrating when you're talking to people who already know what they want and aren't interested in your solution.

as long as you didn't succumb to "ok ok fine how about this, i'll fix it in the database, and create a view for you guys that keeps doing it in the old broken way, so you don't have to do your jobs at all"

When Satya first proposed the idea of acquiring LinkedIn, he said it was absolutely essential that we had alignment on two things: Purpose and structure. On the former, it didn’t take long before the two of us realized we had virtually identical mission statements. For LinkedIn, it was to connect the world’s professionals to make them more productive and successful, and for Microsoft it was to empower every individual and organization in the world to achieve more. Essentially, we’re both trying to do the same thing but coming at it from two different places: For LinkedIn, it’s the professional network, and for Microsoft, the professional cloud.

it also allows me to videogame without having to have any windows in my life which is also worthwhile

if you like bloodborne i suggest you try dark souls 3 on your ps4, you will find it extremely needs-suiting
