I just started learning it, but SQL is really cool 😎

It's pretty interesting. Ive learned some of the VERY basic basics and it's neat what it can do

@Stuxnet long before I got Into coding I fell in love with excel, I feel like I just got into the Big Kids Club 😂😂

Just imagine the excitement you'll feel when you trash your first production database 😏 It's the office version of skydiving.

SQL is amazing 😊
It's so ridiculously useful, and I love how it reads like english. (Which is one of the reasons I love Ruby)

I started writing something like it on my own for an MMO where developers could query realtime data such as the number of players in a map who are wearing a guild tag, with equipment level > x, who had completed z quest. It was fun! And useful, too.

@Root hmm maybe I’ll look into ruby!

That’s a dope project!

HA NEEEEEEERD!

@linuxxx nerd bullying nerds

@linuxxx @mundo03 I keep feeling self conscious at school cause I’m used to being the biggest nerd in the room, but then I realize I’m doing CS, im probably the LEAST nerdy kid in the room 😂😂

It's very interesting how different people are. I myself absolutely hate all PL/SQL languages including the corresponding databases

Sql is useful. Sql is necessary. But I wouldn't call it cool. As a C#-developer, I find it much easier to write complex logic in linq, as the sql equivalent is often very verbose.
If we could bridge the performance gap, in a .net world, we wouldn't need sql at all.

SQL is pain. I wish someone would create a language that's easier to use already.

It's freaking verbose, unforgiving, and not even properly standardized (each DB has its own dialect).

It's a mean to an end, but I wish we had more modern choices, even if that means a performance hit.

@baeovvulf I recently decided to pick up SQL after a long stubborn cult-like devotion to NoSQL and, oh boy, was I missing out!!

@Fradow delete from users where name = 'fradow'

I was going to say something mean then realized I'm no on SO

Its a motherfucking must... if you cant query a fucking database you should chop your dick off.. and I'm not talking about fucking "Give me a list of users" I'm talking about "List all users with birthdate within the next sixty seconds, without living parents, in a 5 miles radius, roman catholic, white" and fucking pivot the fucking thing...

Thats the way... OG
