But that’s not really descriptive of anything discussed, is it? The cargo cult story names no names, and talks about a general group (south sea islanders). Calling out a specific individual raises a swath of other issues, but even that’s fa

The part that’s weird with nulls is that it’s a trinary logic stuffed into a boolean algebra. The use of x = NULL instead of x IS NULL is pretty much always a mistake. More importantly, x = value instead of (x = value and x IS NOT NULL) is

The core optimization you're trying sounds fairly similar to JPA*, which I believe is fantastic on open maps but eh on dense ones.[0] Maybe take a look at HPA* (hierarchal A* - partition the map, pathfind on high-level map, then pathfi

If you’re going to be parsing it anyways, and there’s the possibility of actually doing something with that parsed info beyond just reprinting it, then storing the post-parse results is probably better. Especially if you’re only going to ne

I think the best thing is to ask for $10k or equivalent, and then let the HR team come up with a sane way to construct that value that works under their system. It's kind of like getting requirements where the customer tries to tell yo

The fundamental issue is that they have to generate SQL at the end of the day, so there’s a hard limit on how much you can really change. I don’t know why every database treats SQL as the only API, even Postgres. Even the extension systems,

Doing business in the Middle East, we ran into the mistake of not intentionally pricing 20% higher than what we were actually aiming for. Even if you’re not actually looking to negotiate, you still need to keep a buffer for the negotiator t

this is consistent, non-pseudo-english, reusable, and generic. The SQL standard largely defines the aesthetic of the language, and is in complete opposition to these qualities. I think would be fundamentally incorrect to call it SQL Perhaps

an audit table is useful for that purpose. soft delete is product of the confused mind, thinking one can get data recovery for almost-free. Audit tables admit that at best it'll be a manual process to be custom-designed for the problem

I don’t understand the reasoning; you’d add protections if you wanted them to learn to use the APIs. You’d remove them if you wanted them to mess with the internals of each class.

If you wrote “all 4338 coal plants in Germany blown up”, I’d reasonably interpret it as 4338/4338 blew up. “All 4” doesn’t imply 4 total only because 4 is an unreasonably low count for total coal plants, not because “all [number] [obje
