ALT You can't prove a negative, but what about querying a database for a negative? While the majority of the time, you are writing queries to find data, there are some cases when you want the opposite: writing a query that looks for the absence of data. When it comes to raw SQL, you can use a `LEFT OUTER JOIN` combined with a `null` check to find records without certain associations.
