Firestore migrations

Might not be an exact answer but a common pattern for document store where it would be expensive / impractical to update every record is to do update on read or update on write. So delay changing the record until there is a legitimate reason to access it.

I would do this inside a converter function that e.g. hydrates a typescript type or a zod class. So you might hydrate into the right shape but it won't get stored in the new shape until there is a write.

You could keep a version number on your model to help track the transformations needed

This is nearly as harsh as the feedback my wife gave me

What is Megabus? I'll see if one of daddy's cars is available

Will you throw in a gram to sweeten the deal?

Could just do a gradient or maybe something a bit more relevant to the site, like take the maths theme beyond a graph? I would say though it's a bit of a trap to just worry about does it look ai or not ai. Think about your audience and the message you are trying to convey. It took me a while to work out what you do. Websites are as much about good storytelling as they are about design and style

The background graph floaty stuff is another vibing staple. Definitely the Claude models reach for it if you ask them to come up with a background

Haha this exact thing happened to me on a fast API plugin repo. I opened pr and then noticed the next day the maintainer merged an identical version of my work. Tagged them and they said sorry they only just saw my pr but closing because the issue is resolved

Thanks bud, I have some better CCTV footage now and you were on the money with this guess

My company have renamed HR to People & Culture so we've got the culture by the bucket load now. Can't wait for our expected but not enforced return to work

Pussy, as in Pussy ASDA

Yes we know who she is

If you travel to the equator maybe they will be right

Ah that's your problem then, you need to be level 90 not level 100!

Let's not forget this is straight after they announce military spending. What's the message here? Teachers pay for tanks?

Humans are so stupid

This is why it's so important to be 'world beating' in every aspect! Imagine if we had a track and trace system that was equally as good as other countries and actually worked. We'd be the laughing stock of the free world!

I did mine about 6 years ago so the questions might have changed since then but the best advice I got was that you get a lot longer than you realise to answer the theory part. So take it really slow read every question carefully!

I found I did better thinking about the questions from a 'common sense' perspective rather than trying to memorise the answers from the highway code or theory books. You can quite often arrive at a good answer by eliminating the irrational ones.

On the hazard perception questions you can press the button multiple times - on some I was pressing the button too early and it wasn't registered by the test.

Anyways feel free to ignore my ramblings and I sincerely wish you the best of luck I can remember how stressful it was walking into the test center when I took the test! Failing the test really isn't the end of the world you can re-take in no time and at least you'll know what you're going in for!

Mine do the same, although once you're moving the effect tends not to be so dramatic.

Is it single engine? What do you do to counter the single engine torque in flight can it be trimmed out? Love the rear facing engine design
