SQL NULLS ARE WEIRD!

SQL's handling of NULL values is counterintuitive: the `=` operator doesn't consider two NULLs equal, returning NULL instead, while the `IS` operator correctly identifies them as identical. This behavior affects unique constraints - multiple NULLs can exist in a uniquely constrained column because each NULL is treated as distinct. These two methods help to enforce uniqueness with NULLs: creating a generated column that replaces NULLs with a default value and using a partial index that only enforces uniqueness when a specific column is NULL.

OUR FRONTEND IS A TOTAL MESS, AND I'M LOSING MY MIND (REDDIT THREAD)

A React developer vents about a poorly-built enterprise application riddled with technical debt. The application uses outdated patterns like React class components and Redux excessively, resulting in massive, unmaintainable code. Multiple UI libraries are haphazardly combined, and a reliance on JSON schemas for everything, including layout and event handling, makes the application incredibly complex.
