More Log Buffer Pity
The latest Log Buffer is out, and this blog gets a mention for doing little other than posting about an older Feuerstein article. Honestly, I’ll gladly accept any non-negative mention of this site, so keep ‘em coming!
Feuerstein on Error Tracing
I’m still catching up on some readme bookmarks, and find myself once again face-to-face with PL/SQL sensei Steven Feuerstein. This man has some of the best headshots I’ve ever seen.

Oracle PL/SQL Best Practices and Common Mistakes
Eddie Awad dug up some videos from Quest Software of PL/SQL-god and Borat-hater Steve Feuerstein talking about the best and worst of PL/SQL programming.
The videos offer some tasty advice, including tips on writing cleaner, more modular code, and use of BULK COLLECT and FORALL to improve mass data processing performance, and use of table functions. It’s even worth sitting through the Quest infomercial towards the end of each video.
