Why No Trailing Commas

The utopian future we could've had if SQL didn't punish us for that innocent trailing comma. Nothing says "welcome to database hell" like spending 20 minutes debugging a query only to find you left a comma after the last column in your SELECT statement. Meanwhile, every modern language lets you add trailing commas in arrays/objects because they're not sadistic. The irony? SQL was supposed to be "human-readable" but decided syntax errors were more fun than technological advancement. No wonder our flying cars got delayed.

The Real Reason Behind Onion Architecture

The truth finally revealed by a battle-scarred architect! Onion Architecture isn't named for its elegant layers of separation and dependency flow. Nope. It's named for the tears you'll shed when some junior dev decides that direct database access from the UI layer is "more efficient." Nothing says "architectural integrity" like finding repository implementations scattered across 47 different projects because "inheritance was too complicated." The real layers of the onion are just varying depths of developer suffering.

SQL Query To Production: A Tech Love Story

SQL proposal! This dev announced his engagement with a perfect database query. SELECT * FROM couples WHERE engaged_date='2024-06-14' AND she_said_yes = TRUE; is basically saying "we're officially in production now." Forget boring Instagram captions—this is peak tech romance. The query even has proper date formatting and boolean logic! Somewhere a database admin is wiping away a tear while muttering "proper syntax... beautiful."
