ie: Using a RDBMS as if was a NoSql and complaint that RDBMS are bad...
- sgarland 3y agoI've seen ints being deliberately stored as text. Not because the id field changed at some point and they just kept it around as legacy (I mean, bad idea, but fair enough), but they thought storing them as text would somehow be better. As to NoSQL, yeah - devs love shoving everything into a JSON column, and then complain that it's slow. MongoDB is of course there for their web scale needs.
