  • Life hack for OP and anyone else who ends up in this situation:

    • Take boxed cake mix of your choosing.
    • MOSTLY follow the package instructions. However:
    • Add one extra egg (for example, if it calls for 2 eggs use 3)
    • Substitute oil with 2x butter (for example, if the recipe asks for ⅓ cup oil use ⅔ cup melted butter.)
    • Simple, easy, pro-tier cake.






  • Parent company doesn’t want ANYONE to have direct read access to the database - only the scant few heavily formatted reports the user-facing software will allow. Data analysis still needs to get done though, so…

    Yeah. PQ -> Data Model saves my ass and my co-workers think I’m a wizard.

    That, and learning how to quietly exploit minor vulnerabilities in the software to get raw tables I “shouldn’t” have and telling not one soul has been a winning combo!
