This month, Erik Darling (T | L | B) asks us to write about code that made us feel a way. Rule is, it can't be your own code. That's good, because that usually makes me a bit sad when I review it. The moment I write it, I think it's brilliant though ;). Most … Continue reading T-SQL Tuesday #164: Code that made you feel a way
