"No, you can't be trusted to have a .quote(...) method, just use parameterized queries where you pass in the SQL as text in an object and the actual value in an array, and we'll opaquely drop your update with a {..."status":"UPDATE 0"} response" <-- statements dreamed up by the utterly deranged.

runsql("select overengineered from frameworks where creator = 'PhD' and realworld experience = '0'")

The trend is to get programmers away from what actually does real work by several layers of abstraction, to tie them down to and limit them by that abstraction. SQL in itself is an abstraction layer, I get that, but it's as close as I can get and get real work done quickly.

Add vendors of such layers looking for revenue streams and it gets weird.

Comment policy

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
