Something bad to happen to "them"? There's no diaphanous them, just the specific social climbing crap decision makers facing no consequences of any type. I have worked with many hard working and caring managers, and they are

What? Which? Huh? Absolutely not. So many of them have adhesives I dont think almost any of them meet your criteria.

Fair, but one of the big benefits of normalization was the benefit on storage and memory back in the day which was tiny comparatively. There's always a reason for a dev to ship something shitty but when you show you can use 80% less st

Do you think that the social climbers who approved these obviously crappy projects learned anything? I have worked with all levels of engineers who come into a project glassy eyed about some technology, sure, but if you are part of the team

No, but there are a lot of them, and principal and staff engineers, and solo folks who would get to set the culture if they ever succeed. A lot of people's taste making comes from reading the online discussions of the engineering liter

Sure there is, just use a one time pad and never repeat the message. Oops - you said the opposite of what I read, my mistake.

Fair, I should have said even cheaper as well.

My bigger question is how you would validate this isn't drugs because this seems like the perfect low effort way to send high value drugs.

I guess I am a revenant - I get into one regularly in my basement.

Sounds like a snapshot - a file based diff of the pages changed since the last full backup - easy to revert to for the same reasons.

Crash safety does mean rollbacking all things in progress, but yes, if your database cannot safely do it (even if it is yucky) then you do not have a safe database for any crash situation.

The smaller you can make things or more integral the more interesting you can do things - vape carts are a good example where it might actually reduce the total ewaste if the chip and the body were integral (though clearly would still creat

At this point its much more polite to write badly than use an LLM to rewrite your content. The form tells me you do not care to interact with me in a genuine way.

This reads like 100% an LLM comment. by design -- the enforcement Nothing new here - what is new is the A thing before anyone noticed - another thing, billing in hours, damage in minutes. has the signal, doesn't expose the control Eve

You are both right, with the exception that it requires knowledge and taste to accomplish, both of which are in short supply in the industry. Why setup a go binary and a json file? Just use google forms and move on, or pay someone for a dea

Well you are in luck, if someone tells your to normalize you can tell them their source system can fuck right off.

It's so much worse in the industry, the truth is that many people literally have no idea how to secure things, what to secure, why to secure it - they pay no attention and are plainly ignorant of the state of the world and oftentimes j

It depends on if you are doing OLTP (granular, transactional) vs OLAP (fact/date based aggregates) - dates are generally not something you'd consider in a fully normalized flow to uniqify records.

This is basically how most engineers talk to their managers, politely implying - "can you see how this decision has a short term payoff but a long term consequence?" Before LLMs I only worked at one place that "only hired sen

I do not know about the nazis owning discord yet but I do not use it, I don't think the general zeitgeist recognizes is as a distinctly similar problem yet.

Most I would say, but with snowflake it can be anything from some exec's fever dream to them actually paying 10x what they should and accomplishing said fever dream; I've worked on the entire spectrum when it comes to Snowflake.

I don't see why this is voted down, we've come close to complete destruction of the human race multiple times, why would the future make that less true? Anyone pish poshing war should go fight in one, and then let me know their op

It's a database, but you could store basically any OLAP type things there, all your stuff for aggregate customer data for instance.
