All the ORMs I have used can easily do the equivalent of this

     select count(*) from cars where condition;
If programmers are doing what you say that they are then the programmers are the problem not the library.

Furthermore most ORMs (certainly any that I would consider using!) allow escaped SQL to be used - and if the query gets much more complicated than a couple of where clauses I consider using this feature.

A decent ORM used well allows programmers to program faster on the simple stuff but still write fast code for the complex stuff.

So including Xephyr this is a reasonable way to sandbox a browser? To the same level of reasonable as browsing in any virtual machine is.

Is this sort of thing possible with Wayland? If so does Wayland already enforce the necessary process isolation or does something like Xephr for Wayland need to be developed first?

Yes but the unscrupulous ones will be happy to give and receive fake reviews. The more honest ones won't. So it will be hard to tell the difference between a bad recruiter (fake positive and real negative reviews) and a good recruiter (real positive and fake negative reviews).

To the downvoter. I'm sorry you don't like this (I don't either) but you can't downvote away facts.

How would you propose treating people found not guilty legally?

When traveling to e.g. the USA arrests have to be declared on the online visa waiver. Similar for other countries. I have no idea what happens if you have any arrests but I assume it is not totally convenient. Even if your record might be sealed/not public in your countries does not mean you can ignore this section of the form.

You have a lot more faith in the justice system than others.

NB that being arrested once can hinder someone from getting Visas or jobs in the future and can result in social exclusion.

I'm going to edit my original question in light of this comment.

This is the advice given by banks and anti-fraud agencies. NB in some countries landlines can remain on a call for several minutes after the call receiver has hung up. A phisher will play a dial tone etc to make it seem realistic. The advice is to either wait 10 minutes (longer?) or preferably call back on another line if you receive a suspicious call.

How secure is this (when also running the GUI using Xephr)? Compared to say running Virtual Box VMs or Quebes or LXD virtual machines?

EDITED in response to a comment.

Not everything listed but mailinator works in Tor Browser... Might be a starting point for the pre-existing email account...
