  • Back in 2016 (wow, almost a decade now…) I got a job with a group who used Word docs to email instructions on how to update your code with their changes. For example, “In file xyz.php, go to line 123 and replace <code> with <code>.”

    One of my first tasks was getting that group set up with git. But I will never forget that was their best way to version control code… in 2016.

    I’ve given up on truly being private. Between all of the data leaks, the known back doors, and now this… it’s mostly a lost cause. In fact, I got a letter the other day from a company I’ve never heard of, let alone done business with, stating that my PII was lost to a data breach.

    All in the name of convenience and “national” security I assume. Such a bullshit excuse.

    (Yeah I’m talking to you NSA, and CIA, and FBI, and you, Pervert)

    It’s normal to denormalize data in a relational database. Having a lot of joins can be expensive and non-performant. So it makes sense to use a common structure like JSON for storing the demoralized data. It’s concise, and still human readable and human writable.

    Why should I spin up a NoSQL solution when 99% of my data is relational?
