"UPDATE table_name SET w = $1, x = $2, z = $4 WHERE y = $3 RETURNING *",

does not do the same as

"UPDATE table_name SET w = $1, x = $2, y = $3, z = $4 RETURNING *",

It’s 2 am and my mind blanked out the WHERE, and just wanted the numbers neatly in order of 1234.

idiot.

FML.

    you could use dbeaver that warns you for update and delete queries without a where clause, independently of the db system. I hope the functionality it’s still there since, for totally unrelated motivations, I always use a where clause, even when buying groceries.
