Again, you have a schema. It's just invisible and implicit, and you have no tools to manage, enforce, or deal with it.
- karmakurtisaani 4y agoIf you define it like that, what's the point of the concept of schema at all? When I say no schema, I mean the user has no control over what's in the data. They can query for employee id's, pet names, birthdays, etc., and get back meaningful data or just Nones. Thinking about a schema this way is useful.
