It depends on your 'relationship' with the data. If you are creating reports for mostly non-changing data, denormalized tables makes sense to you. If you are a developer charged with maintaining data integrity, flexibility, and performance (in that order) then you would certainly favor normalized structures. At any rate, given the speed of things nowadays, the difference between join and no-join would be practically imperceptible...at least on a small scale.

If the CTO doesn't want anyone to use joins then he made the wrong choice when picking a relational database for data storage. Should have gone ISAM.

No worries.
A former "CTO" of mine blew up when I suggested changing the font instead of redesigning a report for a new column.
(He didn't grasp (initially) that one could "change" fonts on laser output ... I think he still had 1403 impact printers on the brain. I thought of him as "VP of the mainframe".)
Someone once told YOUR "CTO" that a particular job is running long because of "joins"... so therefore, "all joins are bad".

I'm sure this plan[^] will work out exactly how Dear Chairwarmer thinks it will.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

From the article: The main point of the lecture was ‘Keep your mouths shut!’” the source said, speaking on condition of anonymity. Apparently, the idea has gotten off to a rocky start.

Sounds like many so-called "liberal" US Universities' speech policies.

My Daughter defines Optimism as: North Korea has a Hotel!

Does she also define masochism as people voluntarily stay in it?

Awesome! I would.
Well, I asked if it was called "Hotel California" but she missed the reference.
She laughed when I explained the song...

I would like to start playing lineage 2 (just wanting to see new version, have been 4 years off), but the damm computer (new install) is still searching for updates (aprox. 36 hours searching right now) so I could not backup system yet (don't like to backup games)

1.212.075 packets in "received", the only thing working online is "searching for updates"
Last time (father-in-law's laptop) was 20 hours , 550+ updates in the list (installing back win7 from last backup I did to his system after he got "upgraded")
Now is a new desktop for me, sadly I have no backup yet for this hardware and have to get the list from W7-SP1 until today... I would expect a bit more speed.

Conversely, there is only one thing Americans like from non-Americans when the topic is US politics:
