@jmoironThere is no compelling reason to use "serial" over "bigserial" for an id column.
@jmoiron#golang stdlib is so impressive; complex things are impeccably documented, clearly written; eg. its allocator: https://t.co/Ha5lwNLj1I
@jmoiron@chimeracoder HAH it's even about the same subject. People love telling us in NYC how much Uber is changing our lives as we mostly ignore it.

@jmoiron@chimeracoder I like her in the Guardians.. and Thing actually.

@jmoiron@kisielk Same. We shouldn't put techniques designed for scale on a pedestal and forget the pragmatism that got us there.
@jmoironWorth a read: https://t.co/CrgXYivuAP It is thoughtful, but I disagree strongly with it.
@jmoironIt's not worth sacrificing API cohesion to make the app easier to write. Put the app out of your mind and write a lib that makes sense.
@jmoironassertion libs are decidedly better than lack of testing and if that's what it takes for my collaborators to write good tests I'm on board
@jmoiron@clofresh my CS degree did every type of balanced tree imaginable but no hash tables; the role probability has w/ real engineering isn't respected

@jmoiron@jasonhevans funny how that can be a sign that you've done something truly amazing as well
