J.D. Vance Speaks to Empty Arena at Turning Point USA Event

Reply in thread

Among the encounters Comey describes is a Jan. 27 dinner at the White House. He says that after Trump asked him if he wanted to remain as FBI director, the president declared: "I need loyalty. I expect loyalty."

Comey says he replied that he could offer his honesty, and that when Trump said he wanted "honest loyalty," Comey paused and said, "You will get that from me."

The "honest loyalty" always cracks me up.

Life isn't easy if your last name is 'Null' as it still breaks database entries the world over

Like you said, GIGO, but I can't say I'm familiar with any csv looking like that. Maybe I'm living a lucky life, but true null would generally be an empty string, which of course would still be less than ideal. From a general csv perspective, NULL without quotes is still a string.

If "NULL" string, then lord help us, but I would be inclined to handle it as defined unless instructed otherwise. I guess it's up to the dev to point it out and not everyone cares enough to do so. My point is these things should be caught early.

I'll admit I'm much more versed in mysql than postgres.
