He used to have an is_nice bool but consultants convinced Santa it isn’t future proof enough to capture the nuances of kids behaviour in today’s world, such as “nice but always is really smug about it”. But the consultants kept making PowerPoints instead of updating the backend, so now Santa also has added a new value to behaviour: “consultant-like”
I would make two separate views.
CREATE VIEW NiceList AS SELECT * FROM Children WHERE behavior = 'nice' AND parent.income > 40000; CREATE VIEW NaughtyList AS SELECT * FROM Children WHERE behavior = 'naughty';The income is a nice touch.
The poor kids can’t even afford coal and fall through the cracks.
Only the nice ones, the naughty poor children get free coal
But not the poor nice ones
The poor nice ones get beaten by the naughty rich ones.
which default currency shall santa use ? Dollar have no sense, if presents are free. However Yuan may ease things with providers.
He’s in the north pole, so probably Canadian dollars, Russian rubles, or Danish krone (Greenland)
Why are we using magic strings for behavior?
Feel free to fork my comment.
Does Santa accept PRs?

It’s an ENUM and other people have to read this fucking codebase too, Brian!
I’ve a DBA who would insist on this being in a dimension table and using a foreign key constraint instead of just a fucking string
I like your DBA!
Users probably don’t.
You forgot the join smh
Omitted for brevity.
stop static “variables”! use COL. congress should do the same for setting minimum wage. eg parent.income > COL
