Researchers found that common nitrile and latex lab gloves can shed stearate particles that closely resemble microplastics, potentially "increasing the risk of false positives when studying microplastic pollution," reports ScienceDaily. "We may be overestimating microplastics, but there should be none," said Anne McNeil, senior author of the study and U-M professor of chemistry, macromolecular science and engineering. "There's still a lot out there, and that's the problem." From the report: Researchers found that these gloves can unintentionally transfer particles onto lab tools used to analyze air, water, and other environmental samples. The contamination comes from stearates, which are not plastics but can closely resemble them during testing. Because of this, scientists may be detecting particles that are not true microplastics. To reduce this issue, U-M researchers Madeline Clough and Anne McNeil recommend using cleanroom gloves, which release far fewer particles. Stearates are salt-based, soap-like substances added to disposable gloves to help them separate easily from molds during manufacturing. However, their chemical similarity to certain plastics makes them difficult to distinguish in lab analyses, increasing the risk of false positives when studying microplastic pollution. "For microplastics researchers who have these impacted datasets, there's still hope to recover them and find a true quantity of microplastics," said researcher and recent doctoral graduate Madeline Clough. "This field is very challenging to work in because there's plastic everywhere," McNeil said. "But that's why we need chemists and people who understand chemical structure to be working in this field." The findings have been published in the journal Analytical Methods.

Sandra from InitAg (previously) works with Bjørn, and Bjørn has some ideas about how database schemas should be organized.

First, users should never see an auto-incrementing ID. That means you need to use UUIDs. But UUIDs are large and expensive, so they should never be your primary key, use an auto-incrementing ID for that.

This is not, in and of itself, a radical or ridiculous statement. I've worked on many a database that followed similar rules. I've also seen "just use a UUID all the time" become increasingly common, especially on distributed databases, where incrementing counters is expensive.

One can have opinions and disagreements about how we handle IDs in a database, but I wouldn't call anything a WTF there.

No, the WTF is how Bjørn would design his cross-reference tables. You know, the tables which exist to permit many-to-many relationships between two other tables? Tables that should just be tableA.id and tableB.id?

Table "public.foo_bar" Column | Type | Collation | Nullable | Default -----------+------------------------+-----------+----------+------------------------------------ id | integer | | not null | nextval('foo_bar_id_seq'::regclass) foo_id | integer | | not null | bar_id | integer | | not null | uuid | character varying(128) | | not null |

Yes, every row in this table has an ID, which isn't itself a terrible choice, and a UUID, despite the fact that the ID of these rows should never end up in output anyway. It exists only to facilitate queries, not store any actual data.

I guess, what's the point of having a rule if you don't follow it unthinkingly at all times?
