Over EngineeredReferencing specific database records in your codeSeason 1 continues with a discussion of how to deal with special database records that need to be referenced directly in code.We've all been there before: you've got a specific vendor that you need to write a custom command for, or a certain category that needs special handling, so you either hard-code the ID or slug and shudder slightly before moving on with your life.

Over EngineeredThe line between migration and…?In the first episode of the podcast we explore the boundary between database migrations and other operations that need to happen when the database is being migrated. How do you seed or manipulate data after new tables or columns have been added? In migrations? In one-off commands that you have to run manually? Running seeders in production? In tinker, Nova, or TablesPlus? We spend a whole hour talking about a topic that most people decide on in a few minutes.Items discussed on show:Chris' initial Twitter pollActions by The Dragon CodeLaravel Actions
