Does using a UNION OR UNION ALL query instead of a join query reduce the implication of jsonb column not having statistics, especially since the postgresql query planner might not use the nested loop join.

Just like coding is a technical skill to make a software product, the ability to make sushi is a technical skill to make the product he sells called sushi.

So to my mind your story illustrates the fact that Andrew's definition is not wrong.

What you can argue though, is that possessing the skill to make the product one is growth hacking on should not be essential in order to be a growth hacker, though having that skill would be helpful. After-all you can buy an off the shelf software or hire contractors just like the sushi guy can outsource or buy from other restaurants without making the sushi himself.

It is troubling to hear that digital-ocean takes arbitrary action to shut down servers without giving atleast 24 hours notice.

It is worrisome for me because I am a linode user and only recently created a digital-ocean droplet and after playing with it, I liked their service and was planning to host a new app with them instead of Linode while the existing one's remain with linode.

But now I am not sure?

Can any digital-ocean staff please provide a link that shows your policy for shutting down servers. I need to be sure this high handedness is not actually in your policy.
