    funfact: because water itself has weight, it produces gravity, therefore it pulls more water towards itself, therefore more water collects in some parts of the world than other.

    for example: most of the extra water that comes from global warmings, collects at the pacific because it has a larger surface, therefore US Eastcoast and Europe see very little change in sealevel, while some pacific islands are already gone.


    epistemic status: I remember reading this info a couple years ago, but the best source I can found now is that sentence from wikipedia:

    Changing ice masses also affect the distribution of sea water around the globe through gravity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_level_rise


  • the problem with ORM is that some people go all in on it and ignore pure SQL completely.

    In reality ORM only works well for somewhat simple queries and structures, but at some times you will have to write your own queries in SQL. But then you have some bonus complexity, that comes from 2 different things filling the same niche. It’s still worth it, but there is no free cake.
