Re:Ask HN: What was your worst screw-up at work? on Friday November 02, 2018 @04:07PM (#18366282)
First job out of college working at a healthcare organization, our healthcare system db was mssql. There was a column in one of the tables called `recordDeleted` which basically controlled whether or not the document would show up on the front end. I ran an update statement and forgot a where clause (specifying which records I needed to modify), setting thousands of records in prod to 'record delete' status, causing a whirlwind of confusion as to what was happening while workers were servicing clients.

what makes this any different than patreon
I find that with spotify I get a more consistent variety of music. However I actually pay and use google music primarily. Wish there was a feature on google music (besides feeling lucky or radio) that had curated content like spotify does. I'm usually able to find at least a song I like that comes up in the discover weekly
