How to Get Foreign Keys Horribly Wrong

news.ycombinator.com Haki Benita 2025-07-17 23:36:08

Constraints keep the integrity of your system and prevent you from shooting yourself in the foot. Foreign keys are a special type of constraint because, unlike unique, check, and primary keys, they span more than one relation. This makes foreign keys harder to enforce and harder to get right. In this article, I demonstrate common pitfalls, potential optimizations, and implicit behavior related to foreign keys.

Whatever You Do, Don't Become Obsessed With This Conspiracy Thriller on Netflix

Sometimes, the best TV shows come from unexpected places. Obviously, there were the big ones like Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones. When Vince Gilligan's drug drama ended in 2013, with HBO's landmark fantasy hit in full swing, I wondered what series would be next to capture our collective attention. It took me a few years to find my next TV obsession, which aired on an unassuming basic cable channel. The show I'm referring to was about the internet, of all things. It was created by a guy with

Pixel Watch 4 pricing leak could mean good news for those fearing a hike

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-07-21 14:09:22

TL;DR A new Pixel Watch 4 leak has revealed that the pricing may remain unchanged from the Pixel Watch 3 in Europe. Unless there are any tariff impacts, this suggests US prices may also remain flat, starting at $349. With the upgrades to the specs of the Google wearable looking modest, it would be logical that there would be little to no price hike. It’s not too long now until we meet the Pixel Watch 4.

We Almost Lived in a Timeline Where ‘Morbius’ Was Made by ‘Midsommar’ Director Ari Aster

Marvel’s perpetually delayed Blade movie, which took on new life as the costuming for Ryan Coogler’s Sinners, may never see the light of day. But it’s worth remembering we did already get a vampire movie centered on a Marvel character: a certain Dr. Michael Morbius.

Best travel VPNs 2025: Expert-tested for streaming and bypassing country blocks

You don't need to leave your privacy at home when you travel. A virtual private network (VPN) can keep your data safe, mask your online activities, and provide you with protection while you're away from home. Trusted VPNs encrypt and route your traffic through VPN networks, reducing the risk of internet protocol (IP) address monitoring, tracking, and data theft.

A Russian lawmaker who regulates the IT industry said WhatsApp should prepare to stop offering its services in the country. Anton Gorelkin, the deputy head of the lower house of parliament's IT committee, said that it's very likely that WhatsApp will be placed on a list of restricted software, as Reuters reports.

‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Exec Producer Confirms Identity of Rhys Darby’s Character

It’s very common for TV cast and crew to do spoiler-y interviews that run after a certain episode airs to address standout moments.

With a Dollar Tree Property Brother?” my husband asked, peering over my shoulder as I unpacked various tubes and parts. And indeed, among the boxes was a glossy handout of a slightly younger-looking Zooey, standing with a man who did vaguely resemble her current husband, Jonathan Scott, of Property Brothers fame.

In the early days of large language models, there was a high barrier to entry: it used to be impossible to run anything useful on your own computer without investing in pricey GPUs.

For the longest time, the iPad has been something I've wanted to add to my workflow but couldn't due to its rigid operating system -- one that doesn't necessarily complement the iPad's flexible hardware.
