I.. don't know. I'm a relatively new (~12mths) convert from a lifetime of Windows, and one of the things that has really surprised me is that I don't seem to need to care about RAM usage. I actually had to look up how to find

You're correct to a degree, but IME it's a discipline issue, not a skill issue as such. What makes software hard to estimate is not so much the work, but how much requirements, priorities and resourcing change on the fly. I'v

Back In The Day at uni in the early 2000s, we were taught that table names should always be singular, and that's mostly what I've seen in the real world since. I also think the advice around join table naming is a bit silly. Calli
