    It’s a lot of individual tables because Santa’s excel struggles with anything past a few hundred thousand rows. It’s not just names, but addresses, lists of desires, and so on.

    There are around 2 billion children. If you wonder why he skips so many children, it’s not religion or poverty, it’s because Santa’s files got corrupted.

    Professionals do seem to use excel.
    Holy fuck is it painful for anyone that knows what they are doing.

      You mean the Normal File Format?

      edit: there’s an updated version of this where the only way to get at the document is to download it from the unofficial Whatsapp group.

    Why would Santa need two separate tables for this?

      I would make two separate views.

      CREATE VIEW NiceList AS
       SELECT * FROM Children
        WHERE behavior = 'nice' 
         AND parent.income > 40000; 
      CREATE VIEW NaughtyList AS
       SELECT * FROM Children
        WHERE behavior = 'naughty';

        The income is a nice touch.

        Why are we using magic strings for behavior?
