Plot summary
Jerry Stevens is a small-time actor who has done many part-time roles in hollywood and is now unemployed, looking for a simple job, far less a big break. He is one day called by his job agent who tells him that he is wanted for a very special assignment in California for which he will be paid well. Jerry walks into it, which actually leads him into a world of treachery, lies and deception involving criminals. The rest of the story is about whether or not Jerry is able to deal with everyone and survive the muddle.
gollark: My DB-using projects include all migration capability too, if sometimes limited to a bunch of `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS` calls, but if I ever *needed* it I would just make them able to call some functions to migrate the rows.
gollark: Well, yes, unless you write an extension for it, but no fixed length ones, and I can just do complex stuff in the program.
gollark: You're right, maybe just preinstall a rootkit on all the systems with databases?
gollark: I guess my decision to use SQLite and PostgreSQL for basically everything ever, as they don't have these constraints, was good then.
gollark: Well, there's a simple solution:- find an exploit in MySQL query parsing/execution allowing external code execution- make it execute a binary you craft which causes it to send a HTTP request to your PHP code- that PHP code then fixes the database
