@jon3k In the late 80s we used a file cabinet with floppy disks as the vcs. To update something you'd go to the file cabinet, grab the disk with the latest version, copy it, return the original, make your changes, put a new label on the new disk, and put that disk in the file cabinet.

@nafiz_mahmud_99 There's a great line from the movie "Spotlight". An attorney (Stanley Tucci) says "I'm not crazy, I'm not paranoid, I'm experienced."

@lady_valor_07 It’s a toss up between Chronic Paroxysmal Hemicrania and sciatica from a ruptured spinal disc.

@james_xond I have (and still wear) an Arcteryx jacket I bought in the early 1990s.

@focodereality @Volk_is_here I always loved the Polish name Kazimiera (Kazia for short).

@SahilExec Maybe the 3rd party HTML parsing library we were using was attaching gigantic properties to the strings it was returning? I have no idea. I left the magic line in there along with a giant block comment explaining why it's there and warning to never remove it. So odd.

@SahilExec On a whim, I changed the last line of getMetadata() to: return JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(results)) Now the feature is actually working and there is no memory leak.

@sappiencer @staranchenko_cy @crunchydata A similar thing happens with upsert operations (insert into…on conflict…). We learned this the hard way in a previous company. A table’s serial (note: not bigserial) primary key hit (2^31)-1 but the table only had a few million rows.
