Do people really think that this little information is enough to answer a question like this?

69% got this right, that's not great. But let's look at what is more important...
31% of people read this question and decided that of those four options, that anonymous provides a mechanism for unique logon identification. Think about that for a moment. 31% thought anonymous was... not anonymous.

SQL has no command called CHAR. SQL doesn't have a function called CHAR either. The question doesn't even have a reference and called SQL "sql".
Even in a different language, like T-SQL that does have a CHAR function, this isn't what it does. In T-SQL char can be used to insert control characters into character strings.
In SQL there is a CHAR data type, but a data type is a long way from being a command and can't be described in a verb like way like the question.

The question isn't wrong, it's just mind blowing that 66% of people in a community that talks about this ad nauseum got this wrong. This is SO basic.... everyone talks about how it is software RAID there on and on and on. Even if you have no idea what it is, it's name tells you it is RAID ruling out D, there is no such thing as Virtual RAID ruling out C, no one has ever named a hardware RAID system ruling out A. B is the only plausible answer even without knowing what the question is!

This guy...
See, this is where I run into issues. I get his logic but I've had more stuff not work on CentOS/RHEL because of missing modern libraries/applications/programs then I have break on Fedora. I'd rather have it work and maybe break then not work at all.
-
I'm also amazed that no one has heard of Dom0, which is how Hyper-V (and Xen) are implemented.

And then there's my problem... I just don't have the time to deep dive into it to set him straight like he probably has the time to do... so unless it's a quick response, I just don't have the time...
So what can I do. I'm just gonna leave it.

Ya, I wish I had more time to put into posting.

It's hard to break people of practices that have worked for them over time I've noticed

I can't believe how hard explaining what bare metal means, or what a hypervisor is, is today. This should only have been slightly complicated in the 1990s.

And how Vmware ESX was implemented. So even the thing most of them reference was like that, too.

I think that that thread actually did pretty well. Good, solid discussion, at least by the end.

He's making progress, but I wonder how someone in IT gets confused in this way, thinking that network traffic flows through the hard drive instead of over the network?

Man you really ripped that all apart... wish i had the time. I get only an hour or two in evenings after kids are in bed... but that's when I like to do other things, like learning for myself, relaxing, gaming, etc...
Other than that I can read and do quick replies during the day.
