minus-squareelmicha@feddit.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·9 months agoI hit a similar bug today where I had used SYSDATE - NUMTOYMINTERVAL(2, 'year') in Oracle. I don’t remember why I didn’t use sysdate - 2*365 instead, which works without problems for my use case (I don’t care about one day more or less). But I would have appreciated if the compiler or the IDE would have yelled at me.
