A good rule of thumb that I've often used when creating something new is to ask myself, "will I be able to understand what I've done when I look...

In the near future, there probably will be fewer DBAs, but they will all be an AI augmented 10x DBA.

senior on senior pay acting as a junior is a great description. I've seen so many people do this with data stores, or cloud tech. Wanting to use DynamoDB or...

Thanks and I tend to agree on Choose. It seems like a "magic hard coding" way of putting in values, which worries me. I prefer things to be more flexible...

Thanks and you are correct. Altered one of the answers and awarded back points
