How It Feels Writing SQL

How It Feels Writing SQL
You ask SQL for something simple like "give me the first 100 users" and it responds by VIOLENTLY LAUNCHING YOU INTO THE STRATOSPHERE like you just insulted its entire family tree. SQL doesn't do "gentle" or "proportional responses" – it's either giving you exactly what you want with surgical precision OR it's yeeting your entire production database into the void because you forgot a semicolon. There's literally no in-between. One tiny query and suddenly you're SpongeBob getting absolutely OBLITERATED by Patrick's raw, unfiltered power. The drama! The chaos! The sheer unnecessary force of it all!

When your manager says "just process the last 1000 files" but you're dealing with a PHP script that's about to iterate through 2 million files while comparing against a database of 1 million records. The script is literally pulling 1000 records with limit(1000) but then checking EACH of your 2 million files against those 1000 records with in_array() . That's a cool O(n²) operation that's going to take approximately checks notes forever to complete. Your server's CPU is already writing its resignation letter.

Meanwhile, actual data scientists with PhDs in statistics are quietly crying into their Jupyter notebooks.
