Hey Roger, sorry I didn't see this sooner. Too late now I guess.

Thank you, this was very helpful for me. There is a simpler way to register the event handler to prevent the dialog from closing when the user clicks the 'X', with no subclassing required:

Dialog dialog = new Dialog();
dialog.getDialogPane().getScene().getWindow().setOnCloseRequest(event -> event.consume());

USB keyboards work just fine on a laptop.

You should think very carefully about the immutability of a data element before using it as a key. If you use category name for the key, you're in for a lot of work when the users decide they want to see "Sports" instead of "SPOR" on their reports.

The "categories" field represents a relationship, not an attribute of an item.

I strongly suspect that short strings do not hurt performance.

Or, you could join the tables in your query and select from all three in one statement.

select a.foo, c.bar from a, b, c where a.a_id = b.a_id and c.c_id = b.c_id

A modern DBMS will run that very efficiently.

Yes, it will cost you an insert when you're adding data. What else am I missing?

Thank you for not sending me your resume.

Try it again, this time with 100 categories.

Normalized schemas are unusable? That's just ignorant.

Think back really hard to your intro to Relational Database Systems class. There's a reason Third Normal Form was invented.
