Nothing. Integers are simpler and faster. They're also incorrect about COUNTs requiring a full record scan.

no?

They've absolutely crippled 1password to make local vaults as difficult to buy and use as possible. They don't roll out updated versions as often, many versions don't get support for local vaults for years, they make it nearly impossible to buy the non-subscription version, and you can no longer upgrade older licenses to use new versions.

Their entire business model is really sleazy and they've gone out of their way to alienate people who don't want to pay for a subscription and hosting service for something as simple and secure as locally encrypting passwords. I was a loyal customer for a long time but after a few years of them jerking non-subscribers around, I got tired of it and tell any friends and family to stay away from it.

Every company that has moved to a subscription and cloud-based product has essentially traded a one time $30-50 license to getting that (or more) every year, and the product is usually inferior from my experience.

How would you suggest running a user-created-content site without ever fudging/sanitizing the data being posted to the server?

I think it's obvious that I'm not advocating you have innate knowledge of everything down to semiconductor fabrication in order to be a competent javascript programmer. I would argue you want at least a basic understanding of the internals of the software you're relying on.

You're writing SQL queries and claim you don't have the time to research how the database you're using works internally without destroying your productivity? You can write SQL without knowing the database's indexing strategy or how it optimizes queries, but it's likely to be of a lesser quality than someone who has taken the time to do so.

You're doing a disservice to yourself and the people who have to work on (or more likely fix) your code by having this attitude. Plenty of people are capable of producing great work and still spending the time to actually understand the systems they are working on.

There aren't that many giants; there are a lot of people with a few years of experience that think/claim they're giants.
