This happens when the opposite side turns on the propaganda machine on that specific subject (which when Biden was a possibility wouldn't make sense).

He's old and has been for a while, and I'm all for kamala. Just interesting how that flaw was "overlooked" when it was convenient.

and no this is not an invitation for oil addicts to rant about EVs in c/fuckcars@lemmy.world

Let's think then of electric VEHICLES. you know buses, trucks included.

Being against electric cars, at this moment, is being for combustion cars.

How do I convince my data engineer to not modify data before including it in our db? (lemm.ee)
 

Our data engineer insists in lowercasing everything and removing some other formatting like new lines on free text fields.

They say it's "better for elastic search".

To me that makes no sense and loses information that can't be added back. But I couldn't really convince them otherwise. So far no real problem has come out of it but it makes for a worse experience for the user. Like company names that are acronyms show up as all lowercase. (ibm, llc, etc.) or free text fields that we miss when the user wrote in caps or added paragraphs.

What are your thoughts on this?
