I did something like that going from Sao Paulo (Brazil) to Leticia (Colombia) following the coast toward north and later taking amazon river cargo ships. It took me about 5 months, transit days about 2 months.

I mitigate the imbalance by minimalism.
For example I spend only about 20% of what I make (after taxes). It's not that difficult for IT guys and remote world we live in right now.

It was a question back in 2012. Today nobody has any doubts anymore.

It's worth noting that the actual Saudis make up only 62% of the country population(according to wikipedia). The rest are mostly semi-slaves / slaves from Indian subcontinent / south east Asia.
It's not as extreme as cases of Oman or UAE but still noticeable.

This is not what the query in the post is doing.
You are counting all stars of all repos, they are counting stars of one (parameterized) repo id.
I just posted the essence of the query, add
Where r.id = :repo
and you will have the same thing.

Why do these new big thing databases make SQL look like some witchcraft?
Here is some proper SQL query:
SELECT DISTINCT
r.id,
r.owner_id,
r.name,
COUNT(r.id) OVER (PARTITION BY r.id) AS COUNT
FROM repository r
JOIN star s ON s.repository_id = r.id

Is it possible that you're not passing a DEI filter? A lot of companies are running into trouble for not meeting their diversity goals, especially bumping into the end of the year.
I don't think that 'normal' tech / consulting / software house companies have those. It's more of a big corp thing.

What history can actually teach us is that things that never happened before happen all the time. This is so valid for anything related to global finance.
