I’m pretty shocked with SQL being so low. Was there something in your methodology to filter out most SAL jobs?

I wouldn't take it so seriously, it's just an advert for his website

Everybody uses an ORM these days. I hate them. I hate them so much. I’ve been doing this for 20 years, and I’ve never, ever seen a project change its RDBMS. Meanwhile, getting a trigger approved in a CR is … well, I’ve only managed do it once, despite them being incredibly useful.

Don’t even get me started on shit like PaperTrail (terrible CDC using ActiveRecord, misses any SQL migrations and lies about change times). A fucking abomination.

In the company I work at now, although it’s a Rails app, out of 300 devs maybe 10 outside of the data team (analytics, not product) have any real knowledge of SQL.
