This is a big thing for me. Most ORMs I’ve used have decent migration tools which is a huge benefit for managing your schema. We enforce changing Schemas via migrations as opposed to any sort of auto-migrations some packages offer. Makes l

You can't be forced to join the union though you may be forced to pay union fees if that provision is in the collective bargaining agreement. If you're in a right to work state neither fees or membership is required.

It's a mixed bag, but those fees from Google have been the primary source of revenue and supported the Mozilla Foundation for a some time. Ultimately I think the Mozilla Foundation is in a better position with those revenues then with
