I have a table where I have a row that cannot be found by id. If I go around the PK index, the row is found. If I drop the index, the row is found. If I add a new index, row not found.

Suppressible mixin
DHH's On Writing Software (well?) [episode 2](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1jOWu7woKM) discussed callbacks, specifically the practice of hiding side effects of object creation using `after_save` and `after_commit` hooks.
It implicitly conceeded that `after_commit`, lacking information about what was just committed, was flawed, and uses the common workaround of using an `after_save` to decide to do something based on changes and set an @ivar, and then in the `after_commit` acting on the @ivar found. Which is fun, but.
It also [at the end](https://youtu.be/m1jOWu7woKM?t=1151) discussed the possibility that in some use cases a caller might want to explicitly prevent side effects from happening. Think about when audited temporarily suppresses auditing, or perhaps one might want to bulk update some data, without sending the email normally sent when said data is updated.
It teased the presence of a `Suppressible` mixin. For fun, I wrote it.
Update: turns out the real one is public. It uses `thread_mattr
