Moves SQL TempDB files to designated location, and sizes them appropriately. If there are multiple instances hosted on the same SQL Server, divide the drive size by the instance count, and create folders for each instance name on the destination drive.

Snippet is nuts and bolts for creating/moving to an isolated tempdb drive.
After you run this, SQL Server must be restarted for it to take effect

WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?!
Sometimes you don't care about a particular type, you're interested in one field only, let's say `EntityId`.
Instead of using interface (which isn't even possible if don't own a type),
we can do structural typing in F# using SRTP and Active Patterns.
Active patterns are not required for this, but they do make code much easier to use.

// So we have 2 types with field `EntityId: string`:

Things I believe

This is a collection of the things I believe about software development. I have worked for years building backend and data processing systems, so read the below within that context.

Keep it simple, stupid. You ain't gonna need it.

Quant Cup 1's winning order book implementation
/*****************************************************************************
* QuantCup 1: Price-Time Matching Engine
*
* Submitted by: voyager
*
* Design Overview:
* In this implementation, the limit order book is represented using
* a flat linear array (pricePoints), indexed by the numeric price value.
* Each entry in this array corresponds to a specific price point and holds
* an instance of struct pricePoint. This data structure maintains a list

[F#/OCaml] Implementing a data streams library using a bunch of one-liners

[F#/OCaml] Implementing a data streams library using a bunch of one-liners

A few years ago when I read the presentation motivating the design behind Nessos Streams I was struck by the beauty of simplistic push streams.

type PushStream<'T> = ('T -> bool) -> bool

LINQ (in .NET) is a pull stream, ie we pull values out of the stream by calling MoveNext + Current. One of the problems with pull streams is the constant checking "Are we done?" at each level in the stream.

// This is am example of an immediate write / random access cursor for Excel with basic formatting options.
// Implementation is based on a concrete, non generic writer monad with no payload ("do!"" only) (only state).
// Instead of directl writing to excel, an alternatives would be a random acces to a
// copy-on-write list (or even a mutable array) and then bulk-write the result to excel in one shot.
// When only forward access would have been required, a simple seq expression with yields would have been enough.
// Anyway, it is a demonstration on how to "hide" pseudo-mutable state that is passed through a computation.
//
// I personally use it for generating reports based on various data sources.
