This intuitively is exactly what I thought was (should be) the answer, after spending some thought on it. But is it documented anywhere? One of the Rails 6 bounties is for multiple database configurations to be made clear, IOW in configurat

In this case the DB engine was not the place for those improvements, as the majority of the extra time was being spent in the "Compile" method which merely composes SQL. If you're worried about turning the ORM into a smart s

This is a great point, so how do you handle this? Rails doesn't have any separate facility for migration account vs production account, by default. Which because our deployment paradigm also doesn't have any such separation, resul

There is a strong argument for conceptual compression, the idea that every component has an optimum abstraction layer to understand it at, and with that, less-optimum layers for understanding. An ORM that does its job well allows you to tak

Wow, it just struck me that Ruby is already about 25 years old.

Fascinating. They also say Ruby is mostly dead/obsolete now, (it is to say that is the parlance, not something I personally believe!)
