@connormcd.bsky.social I see what you did. 100% sorts to the top of the AI World schedule.

There does not seem to be a correlation between the model in the Copilot chat and the model used by the Oracle SQLcl MCP server. Is there a way to choose the model for the Oracle SQLcl MCP server? @thatjeffsmith.com

Er, don’t you mean AI World :)

Proof (if any were needed) that AI function calling is more popular than testing/evals 🤦

It turns out there is a good reason for this delay and PSU patches will arrive much sooner in future. #orclAPEX

💯 The results are in from last week's Ask the Community Question. 62% of responders store files/BLOBs in the database.

💡 While this approach is easier than using Object Store, it is the most expensive approach. Consider Object Storage instead. #orclAPEX

As an Expat Brit it’s amazing to see the Archers trending on a major social media platform.

I am struggling to understand why all of the OCI instances I have access to are still running 24.2.0 when the latest PSU is 24.2.5 and APEX 24.2 was released on January 15, 2025 #orclAPEX

I recently encountered two instances of HTTP 403 errors when not passing User-Agent in the HTTP header. Safer to always pass it. #orclAPEX

Oracle APEX & Oracle 23ai Vector Search is an excellent platform for implementing a knowledge base for your #orclAPEX knowledge.

Started getting this error in two OCI ATP Instances. It seems to impact any PL/SQL referencing a VECTOR datatype. #oci #orclAPEX Any ideas?
