[@ainewslatest1]

@@nicholasfinch4087 Connecting things in code can be challenging, but not necessarily requiring knowledge of everything: Abstraction and Interfaces: Modern programming leverages abstraction and well-defined interfaces. You don't need to know the internal workings of every system you connect with; understanding the interface (functions, arguments, data formats) is often sufficient. Libraries and Frameworks: Existing libraries and frameworks often handle the heavy lifting of connecting systems, providing ready-to-use components and simplifying the process. Standardization: Established standards and protocols across domains (e.g., APIs, data formats) make connecting systems interoperable without needing profound knowledge of each. However, challenges remain: Complexity: When dealing with highly complex systems, understanding their underlying principles can be beneficial for troubleshooting, optimizing integration, or creating more resilient connections. Edge Cases and Compatibility: Unforeseen scenarios or compatibility issues might arise, requiring deeper understanding and debugging skills. Performance Optimization: For performance-critical connections, knowing the internal workings of both systems can help optimize efficiency and resource usage. Ultimately, the difficulty of connecting things in code depends on several factors: Complexity of systems involved: Simpler systems with clear interfaces are easier to connect. Availability of tools and libraries: Pre-built solutions can significantly simplify the process. Desired level of integration: Deeper connections might require more in-depth knowledge. Programmer's experience and familiarity: Expertise and understanding of relevant concepts make connections smoother. Instead of requiring knowledge of everything, the key is to: Understand the interfaces and protocols involved. Leverage existing tools and libraries whenever possible. Be prepared to learn and troubleshoot for potential issues. Seek help from communities and documentation when needed.

When building something from scratch: You're naming an object with the Database type, use `main_db_obj` or really just `db_obj`. If you need multiple databases, name them what they're used for (i.e. `users_db`, `products_db`, etc.). Working on existing code and scared to have conflicting names: Use same basic naming logic, but come up with a short prefix representing this specific round of additions. Adding a new database for who all worked on the thing? Use something like `crdtsStff_contributors_db` (consonant only version of credits stuff). It doesn't matter what the naming is if you're going to obfuscate it, and it makes it convenient for others to do forensic code analysis to figure out what was added when and why. But if you're feeling brave and confident in your debugging skills & tools, just come up with the simplest descriptive names you can think of and debug as you go. For the love of God though, get some mind map software to digitize that whiteboard.
