Maybe the example is contrived in a way that does not show the issue very clearly. User forgot to include the posts table in the query. Error line 1 says "Cannot select `posts::columns::id` from `users::table`. For me, that is more tha

I honestly don't see how your comment makes sense. Tt's the GDPR (published in 2016) that mandates that consent must be freely given. Using a 2002 directive to justify your point is disingenuous. You could have selected instead th
