Write Where First

Write Where First
Somewhere in the multiverse, SQL decided that letting you accidentally nuke your entire database was just too entertaining to prevent. That's why UPDATE and DELETE statements don't require a WHERE clause—they just strongly suggest it. It's like SQL is that friend who hands you a chainsaw and says "try not to cut your leg off" instead of giving you safety training. The number of junior devs who've learned this lesson by wiping production data is probably higher than the number of semicolons in their codebase. And yet, decades later, we're still teaching this lesson on classroom projectors instead of fixing the language. Classic tech industry solution: "Let's document the problem instead of solving it!"

Why Do NoSQL Devs Eat Lunch Alone?

Why Do NoSQL Devs Eat Lunch Alone?
SQL developers can join tables with a simple JOIN statement. NoSQL folks? They're structurally incapable of such social graces. MongoDB devs frantically embedding documents into their sandwiches while PostgreSQL users effortlessly merge their lunch groups with elegant inner joins. The cafeteria has become a database paradigm battleground, and the document store people are losing badly.

The Caps Lock Confession

The Caps Lock Confession
The worn-out Caps Lock key is the unsung hero of SQL development! While the rest of the keyboard remains pristine, that poor Caps Lock has been hammered into oblivion from writing SELECT , FROM , WHERE , JOIN , and all those other shouty SQL keywords. Database developers might claim they use proper casing for readability, but this keyboard tells the real story—a tale of aggressive capitalization and syntax highlighting requirements that have claimed yet another Caps Lock victim. The keyboard never lies!

No Need To Shout

No Need To Shout
OMG THE DRAMA OF SQL DEVELOPERS AND THEIR CAPS LOCK ADDICTION! 😱 These poor souls are literally SUFFERING PHYSICAL PAIN from writing their queries in ALL CAPS! Cracking knuckles! Neck strain! Leg cramps! And the ultimate villain? That treacherous Caps Lock key just sitting there, MOCKING THEM with its power! The keyboard equivalent of a siren song luring developers into a world where SELECT, FROM, and WHERE must be SCREAMED at the database for it to understand. Because apparently databases are HARD OF HEARING or something?! The SQL language doesn't even care about case sensitivity, yet here we are, DESTROYING OUR BODIES for the sake of tradition! The AUDACITY!
