I stopped doing SQL (the language/syntax) because I use ORMs now. They make the job a bit easier, especially when doing table relations.
The mental gymnastics needed to understand joins 😂
It's basically just a VLOOKUP is how I explain it to my friends who might be familiar with excel but not a real database.
If you know vlookup, you should checkout xlookup. Even more similar, relatively speaking of course. No longer do I have to count my columns
It's tabs vs spaces for SQL. Notice how I capped.
Yea, but did you pronounce that Essquel or Sequel?
Both in the same sentence just to fuck with people
In actuality I randomly switch between them. I am chaotic evil.
There is only one correct way to pronounce it. Everyone who pronounces it the other way is a moron.

Yes, WHY do I write all my SQL statements In all CAPS and why isn't there a better SQL editor, and why hasn't SQL evolved more than it has?
