After 17 years of coding, I am finally starting to actually understand databases. Thanks ChatGPT; using AI to advance my career.

Anyway, I thought it was some 3-dimensional nebula inside a database, but now I realize it is in fact all 2D, and there's just a lot of automatic duplication to allow accessing it in 3D ways. Now that I've built an index by hand it makes sense.

I really thought I was going become an artist, but after failing art class in high school I decided to become a coder. Follow your dreams.
