I would also bet that you have written SQL that looked great but didn't act great. Looking back at it was more like a little puppy that tilts its head at strange sounds. We all have, even the "experts" among, us have written SQL that had intentional consequences. On the other hand, maybe you support a system that has SQL that you just don't quite understand. If some of this is true, this session is for you. This session will take a look at why SQL may not run the way it was intended. We will look well beyond just the select statement and look deeper into how SQL runs. We will go over what the DBA's keep to themselves as well as other metrics. We will also look at some well-intended SQL and why the results were less than ideal. https://cfwebinar-sql.meetus.adobeevents.com/ Online CF Meetup - "The Golden Hammer: Confessions of a Recovering Database Abuser", w/ Shawn OdenThursday, February 25, 202111:00 AM to 12:00 PM CSTEarly in my dev career, I often (unwittingly) abused my systems. My code didn't care about things like databases or networks, as long as the results were right. I had a cfHammer, and I needed to pound out a solution. I never knew I was an anti-pattern.Meetup Link: https://www.meetup.com/coldfusionmeetup/events/276405673/ Ortus Webinar - Take Control of Logging and Error handling with Stachebox with Jon ClausenFriday, February 26th - 11:00 AM CDT (GMT -6:00)Tracking, handling, and resolving bugs between different tiers can be challenging, especially in containerized or cloud environments. In this webinar, Jon Clausen will introduce you to capturing your back end and front-end error messages, and consolidating them in to one single, aggregated platform - backed by the power of Elasticsearch.https://www.ortussolutions.com/events/webinars Register: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZEqdO2qpjgjH9Y9FCGbn2dkx-ARjlpenKMm ICYMI - Mid Michigan CFUG - Docker with John FarrarFeb 16th - 7pm I will be doing a Docker meeting for the Mid Michigan CFUG this month. It is Rick Mason’s user group and details will follow. I am going to put a special emphasis on Traefik if anyone is interested. I am a user now, not an expert but find it a better experience than Apache, HAProxxy, IIS or Nginx so far. Your experience may vary.

What this episode covers
Eric and Brad hosts this weeks episode. This discuss Adobe ColdFusion 2016 was End of Life'd last week, unless you have an extended support contract. They discussed Matthew Clemente's live streaming side project finally coming to fruition as PrismJS now supports CFML with his Pull Request being merged. They discuss some upcoming webinars, Adobe's Webinar on the 24th, Online CF Meetup on the 25th, and Ortus's Webinar on the 26th. If you missed John Farrar speaking last week at the Mid Michigan CFUG they shared the YouTube link for that too. They also mentioned some updated pricing for ForgeBox, the NPM of the CFML world. They discuss the latest CFCasts content, and some upcoming conferences. They spotlight a lot of great blog posts, tweets, videos and podcasts, too many to list, so listen to the show. They announce some jobs from getCfmlJobs.com. They show off the ForgeBox module of the Week, Navigate for CommandBox - Navigate allows you to traverse previously viewed working directories, both backwards and forwards (much like a web browser). This week's VS Code Tip of the week is Local History - A visual source code plugin for maintaining local history of files. We thanked all our Patreons, but also leaked a little information about new perks for our Patreon supporters.
