You should solve the problem you need to solve, not the problem you have a cool solution for. The problem to solve is "given my database in an arbitrary but valid state, applying a migration should succeed and leave the database in a e

This is the wrong approach. He should be putting data in the database schema before trying to run migrations on it. Doing that is simple and can potentially catch all sorts of bugs, including the bugs you didn't think of yet. His solut

I don't think you know what 'liquidity' means, but if you do you are incorrect about it here. Deposits provide funding , not liquidity . Banks certainly do use deposits to fund loans. It is not true that most countries do n

You seem very confused about several different points here. 1. Deposits often fund loans. If deposits were never used to fund loans as you describe, most banks would have at least as many cash or HQLAs as they do deposit liabilities. Check

It's a perfectly reasonable rule of thumb though. Ad blockers typically leave the YouTube service thinking that an ad has been watched, otherwise they wouldn't get far. These bogus views are counted in the thousands of views, and
