“My main reason for scepticism about the Huxley/Sagan theory is that the human brain is demonstrably eager to see faces in random patterns, as we know from scientific evidence, on top of the numerous legends about faces of Jesus, or the Virgin Mary, or Mother Teresa, being seen on slices of toast, or pizzas, or patches of damp on a wall. This eagerness is enhanced if the pattern departs from randomness in the specific direction of being symmetrical.”

“If your query returns a small number of rows but filters inefficiently, the database might still have to scan a large portion of the table and sort all those matching rows, which involves temporary memory, CPU, and often some significant amount of disk I/O - especially without an index on the field you're ordering by. Keep this in mind when considering whether to sort the results of your query using .orderBy() or .orderByDesc(), and be sure never to do so either willily, or nillily.”
