The human brain is a marvel of biological engineering. It allowed us to accumulate and pass on the knowledge of many prior generations throughout millennia, resulting in a civilization that went into space, taught computers to see and speak, and that continually discovers and investigates the laws of the Universe.

Its complexity is astounding, and we do not fully understand it yet. And because of that, occasionally, myths about the functioning of the brain pop out. Among the most prominent such legends is the one that claims we are dormant geniuses. But before analyzing and debunking that, let’s discuss some brain facts.

In the Code-First approach, you first define your data-model in plain code. You can start working with that model immediately, and only later you worry about schema definitions, bindings, and other necessities. The mapping between the domain model and external entities like database tables/fields usually relies on conventions.
