My friend Peter Larsson sent me a T-SQL challenge involving matching supply with demand. As far as challenges go, it's a formidable one. It's a pretty common need in real life; it's simple to describe, and it's quite easy to solve with reasonable performance using a cursor-based solution. The tricky part is to solve it using an efficient set-based solution.

Concurrency is a notorious cause of really frustrating bugs. Most software bugs are consistent. If you do X, then Y, then Z, you get Bug A. You can get race conditions with concurrency though. That’s basically a bug where if you do X, then Y, you’ll get Bug A maybe 10% of the time. The occurrence of the bug is intermittent which makes it hard to find the root cause since you can’t reproduce it reliably.
