This is not a problem with all ORMs. This is caused by lazy loading the related data when it is accessed, which is not how all ORMs work. If your ORM requires you to define the included related data explicitly, you won't have this part

The framing in the title seems somewhat disingenuous to me. This is one article in that journal, it's not an editorial and as far as I can tell there is nothing to indicate that this article represents the opinions of the journal or it

This advice seems a bit too simplistic, and I think misguided at least for the specific example of null values. I only know the details here for Postgres, so I'm not sure if this is valid for other databases. In Postgres each null valu

I think it is entirely reasonable to not give Musk the benefit of the doubt here. He has previously made some comments that were very friendly to Russia, and calling something "epic" is reasonable to interpret as a positive endors

The mRNA vaccines drastically reduce severe disease and death in elderly people, it's a really strong and easily observed effect. And they were developed in record time compared to any previous vaccine, so that is certainly a very impr

That's a theory that I've seen quite often online, but as far as I could tell there is no evidence at all for it. I also haven't seen this argued from any official sources. It's a plausible-sounding explanation, that has

I wouldn't suspect kickbacks immediately, simply trying to avoid blame for the initial decision seems motive enough.

As far as I understand the books are essentially self-published in this case, so there is certainly some investment needed to make all of this happen.

You still have to keep the database nature of the SQLite file in mind when doing backups, as far as I understand it is not safe to just copy the file while the DB is running unless you use snapshots or ensure that nothing is written to the

The part about Drupal I really liked was the ability to handle structured content, not just a bunch of posts of free text written in some WYSIWYG editor. It required a bunch of modules, but later was part of the core CMS. This was really po

Supplements are not really all that different from drugs. And for those you have to prove they're safe before you can sell them. For supplements you have to prove nothing.

Faceting is really useful, but quite expensive if implemented in a naive way in Postgres. This looks very interesting, but the really annoying thing about requiring a Postgres extension is that you can't use it with most managed Postgr

The two experiments mentioned involved 61 animals, so it's not 2 out of 1500 but at least 61 out of 1500. And I think it would not be unreasonable to assume that there are more cases than the ones explicitly documented in the article,

These are not mice, and there are much, much higher standards for animal experiments on e.g. primates. The expense and amount of effort per animal is also very different for monkeys compared to mice.

I understood that the time pressure lead to mistakes that made some experiments useless. So they had to be repeated, which means more animals in total died than if the experiments had been done correctly the first time. Of course the specif

My own experience is that JS can be really, really fast if you manage to avoid confusing the JIT. But it's also very easy to make stuff slow and it can be hard to guess what kind of stuff will be an order of magnitude slower because it

This is a guess on my part, though I think a plausible one. To verify you'd probably have to compare an index with unique values to one with many identical ones.
