Sometimes I wonder how Oracle keeps track of all the inter-dependencies in their software. They must have a behemoth of an xref somewhere. I can't see them using spreadsheets, can you imagine what a nightmare that would be. (no I don't expect Oracle employees to tell me how they do this, LOL).

Still I think they are doing a pretty good job of it. So many pieces...

Kind of the huge investigations like the Mueller investigators, how did they xref millions of pages of documents and leads, inferences, causal relationships, etc. Mind boggling. I have no idea how they can do that. At all.

That's it for me, no more e-mails to this list today. Have a nice day.
