I think pipeline-oriented tooling is relevant enough for this community (is this thing on?).

A PRQL query is a linear pipeline of transformations

It compiles to plain SQL, but queries generally start with a table.

Each line of the query is a transformation of the previous line’s result. This makes it easy to read, and simple to write.

PRQL consists of a curated set of orthogonal transformations, which are combined together to form a pipeline. That makes it easy to compose and extend queries. The language also benefits from modern features, such syntax for dates, ranges and f-strings as well as functions, type checking and better null handling.

I found this link on Hacker News, and it seems to be a transpiler to generate SQL from a new language.

It's been a long time since I have written SQL, but I'm sure this could be interesting since SQL can be infuriating for most developers I've worked with.
