You finance and billing guys will never understand.
These are rockstars.
They work for facebook.
They would never ever type UPDATE users SET email = username || '@facebook.com'; WHERE username == 'john.smith';
- jacques_chester 14y agoOf course not. Much faster to type UPDATE users SET email = username || '@facebook.com'; Then let the users sort out the exceptions.
- alttab 14y agoI think he was being sarcastic - you can see the semicolon in the middle of the command which looks like pretty much what they did with the whole e-mail debacle. You simply removed the second incomplete statement.
- jacques_chester 14y agoI now realise that I am underqualified to work at Facebook. :(
