good lord man, the condescension is so thick and rich, it's like i'm reading an eclair, and the eclair is insulting me based on its own misunderstanding of the topic of conversation

That'll happen when you're publicly and confidently wrong. If you scroll up, you'll find any number of posts where folks pointed out your misconceptions in a more kindly fashion. When we factor in the fact that you're wrong (as opposed to my post which is correct, informative, and cites examples) I think many would say your incorrect assertions are a lot ruder and less HN-worthy.

Sometimes folks know more about a given thing than you do. That is okay. The goal is to learn. I am sure you know more than I do about zillions of things. In fact, that is why I come here. People here know things.

haha, man, the absolute _chutzpah_ you need to make (incorrect) accusations like this, even as an anonymous person on the internet, is really breathtaking

i hope you reflect on this interaction at some point

You seem to be firm in your objectively wrong belief that:

    a stored proc is just a query saved on the db server, nothing more

Absolutely not. They can contain procedural logic as well. You can do a wide range of things in a stored proc that are far beyond what can be done with a query. Again.... I provided some links with examples. You don't need to believe me.

Wow.
