Post about programming, interesting repos, learning to program, etc. Let's try to keep free software posts in the c/libre comm unless the post is about the programming/is to the repo.

Do not doxx yourself by posting a repo that is yours and in any way leads to your personally identifying information. Use reports if necessary to alert mods to a potential doxxing.

Be kind, keep struggle sessions focused on the topic of programming.

yeah that's fair enough. I was just thinking about backend developement since that's what I mostly do. Query builders are still somewhat popular in that space unfortunately. Even this website uses a query builder, which has caused the devs a lot of problems because queries become impossible to optimise
Wait what... Why? Is it at least plaintext? Or like an orm? Query builders should be a way to generate a SQL starting point...
I've used Metabase to do BI on databases before, and that has a pretty decent query builder, but it also lets you see the exact SQL it generates and convert the query to raw SQL at any point. Why would you ever lock a builder into your workflow...
It's a framework called "Diesel" and I have absolutely no clue why anyone would use something like this. I guess it has some nice stuff like migrations built in, but I don't know why they need any of the other stuff
Oh shit, is that the "ilovejesus" crate?
