ISNULL and COALESCE differ on result type, truncation, nullability, and how often they evaluate their input. When to use each.

The first difference is the result type and length. ISNULL takes the data type of its first argument and forces the whole result into it.[2] COALESCE follows data-type precedence across all its arguments and picks the type with the highest precedence.[3] When the first argument is narrower than the replacement, ISNULL truncates.

And COALESCE is ANSI standard SQL while ISNULL is specific to T-SQL, so COALESCE ports to other database engines and ISNULL does not.

I reach for COALESCE by default, for the standard syntax, the multi-argument fall-through, and the result length that accounts for all its string arguments rather than truncating to the first.

Daniel Ward shares eight essential tips to help you improve your technique, expand your musical knowledge, and get more joy out of your playing.

4. Relax That Wrist
   A stiff wrist leads to stiff playing. To loosen up, shake out your strumming hand like you’re flicking off water. That’s the movement you want when strumming or picking—loose, natural, and effortless. If your arm is doing most of the work instead of your wrist, you’re making things harder than they need to be.

Storage can be easy and fun. Not to mention flexible. Why not use your woodworking skills and love of building to enhance the productivity and the overall look of your workshop.
