I'm glad my comment noting the usage of best practices when it comes to writing Python was downvoted. Says a lot about the immature user base around here.

How do you know which table first_name came from? Also aliasing can be as much for legibility as anything. SELECT ZZ.first_name FROM staff AS ZZ INNER JOIN students AS Q ON Q.mentor_id = ZZ.staff_num;

This isn't a great idea. Maybe it works for you, but you can alias it, too. The main identification column of a table should just be id. Any foreign keys can have a table prefix. Please don't prefix the main table id with the tab

Yet, people still vie from all over to work at US companies and we still draw the best talent. There's also unemployment benefits for US workers. Haters gonna hate, I guess.

I removed it from windows and I'm still very productive. Probably moreso, since I don't have to make constant corrections. To each their own.

This is wild; I like how one of the lead scientists used their background in another discipline (humpback whales) to help uncover this discovery about mice and USVs.

Cranky comment: Putting your code comments in line with the code is less readable than putting the comment on the preceding line. Most people get what you're going to talk about from the context.

You can work and achieve goals. No one said you can't. In terms of prestige, I would float this thought: Can you name the CFO of Home Depot (or, another major company of your choice)? I can't and I loved Home Depot. That CFO has C
