Oh, don't worry, we make various references like that all the time....even the bosun's whistle for captains on the bridge gets an airing now again.

As long as noone starts referring to Honor Harrington it should be fun.
Also, if this is The Original Series the Captain is the best role to have; if this is The Next Generation, I'd be happier being First Officer

Congrats Dave ! Captain of a ship that is not moving is much less dangerous, that must really be a piece of cake.
*Oil ? What oil ? ...Flammable ? In ... in huge quantities ? Like ... really huge ? Mmmhh ... where is that ship again ?*

Congratulations. I'm still looking for work.

Barking up the wrong tree, I'd wager. At leash it seems that way. Well - I've had my ion this long enough; time to muon to the next post.

"If all you are doing is running sprocs, then you defeat the purpose of even using an ORM."
I wonder why he didn't assume that I knew that from the get-go, thus prompting my question in the first f*ckin place...
"I stopped using sprocs over 10 years ago, once I discovered how to use an ORM like nHibernate and EF, becuase I had been in too many shops where those bunny rabbit breeding sprocs were all over the place with half of them no one knew what they were for or about."
I'm really happy for him. However, I have a legacy database that uses nothing but stored procs, and that cannot be changed.

No, it doesn't. You still get your results as if they come from a normal query, and can map those to objects easy.

You can create multiple procs for different users, with different access-levels.

Check his age... Maybe never heard of legacy DB...
And just for the case - there is nothing wrong using SPs and ORM together - definitely it defeats not any purpose... after all SPs are returning tables just like any other select...

"Legacy"? That's - whisper it around the current generation - "maintenance" isn't it. They don't do no steenkin' maintenance, they are far too valuable for such a mundane task...

Many years ago, when I had programming as a summer job during high-school (yes computers had been invented, recently), the guys running the shop were eyeing a job application:
"I really do like maintenance programming."
"Sounds like a lazy sod, we sure won't interview him"
"If we don't change direction, we'll end up where we're going"

I hear ya.
The most useful thing I've seen stored procedures do is freaking disappear without a trace. Fragile-ass-rubbish they are.
I use them only as needed.
Nor do I use ORMs either.

If you switch energy suppliers - and here in the UK we are recommended to do so loudly and stridently - always do it in late spring / early summer.
If you don't they will use historical data from actual meter readings to estimate your annual costs which will be over the most expensive months of the year, not the cheapest ...
That's the second conversation I've had with the idiots after they try to up my direct debit by 40% pcm because I'm obviously going to use as much heating the house all summer as I do all winter ...

They know where you live, average temperatures are probably only around 0.1 degrees warmer in summer
Now that I have a "smart" meter why can't I pay monthly for exactly what I use should I choose to? I'm always in credit with my energy supplier regardless of which one it is, obviously they are making profit investing our money.
