Most people’s financial decisions are driven by what the people around them decide — which, in this culture, typically ranges from thoughtless to completely backwards — and conscious thought about the getting the best deal on happiness doesn’t enter the picture. Would you rather have five all-expenses-paid years off to spend with your family, learn a language or build a business — or drive a big car instead of a small car?

I have a sense of control over my life that I’ve never felt before. These intangible dividends are immediate, and they don’t cost a cent because the money is still mine.
The Color Theory Behind Industrial Seafoam Green

Fun fact: There is no limit clause in the SQL standard.
Everyone uses limit.
And yet, according to the standard, we should be using fetch
Rendering text, how hard could it be? As it turns out, incredibly hard! To my knowledge, literally no system renders text “perfectly”. It’s all best-effort, although some efforts are more important than others.

The Go standard library is full of bad design choices from the perspective of safety of use.
PRQL is a modern language for transforming data
Интересная замена SQL. Запросы для аналитики данных станет писать намного проще. Не думаю, что для чего-то другого этот проект подойдёт. Условный CRUD проще написать, используя именно SQL запросы, здесь PRQL излишен.
