Try clothes shopping with my mom when I was 8. JCPenney has no windows the mannequins are apathetic.

I’ve said this before, but I’ve come to regret it. As a phrase it requires a sentiment that is false and grounded in the notion that the market is efficient at dealing out worth to people rather than dealing out perceived profitability.

Teaching can be incredibly rewarding; research can be incredibly rewarding. To teach things well you must have a good grasp of material. It is a sad thing that such a worthy endeavor doesn’t pay more.

I mean the host can always remove your repo. We’ll see how they handle it; but I would assume it won’t be without care. But yet another reason to host your own as well.

I don’t understand why this happens; why would you ever be working with a live production DB in the first place? Why would’t you do all your development and testing on a mock? If it’s data which is too large to store the schema can still be mocked; and if it’s data it should be backed up and generally read only. If you’re having to manually fuss with user data you’re doing something wrong.

It’s a big problem space, sometimes there is nothing to be done, but often times there is. You maybe have had an anecdotal experience, and I can understand your frustration and distrust. But this is science, it’s better to know you don’t know than to offer false conviction.
