Am I the only one who doesn't like calling MySQL as "my sequel"?

Am I the only one who reads mysql as "my sequel"?

I recalled a seemingly simple task I took on.

We were building a booking system, and I had to figure out how to retrieve bookings by a certain date range.

Upfront, the tasked seemed simple until I realised I had to both figure out the logic and the SQL statements needed to retrieve all bookings within a certain date range in one query.

I ended up drawing a model to help me visualise the various date-range criteria to be satisfied. And used unit tests to help me think through each date range criterion and make sure they were accurate. Some were obviously from paranoia, but better to be safe than sorry...

After that, I had wrote down raw SQL directly into Sequel Pro first to make sure my query logic was accurate too, before translating into something the ORM equivalent. This was when I learned how to define and use variables in SQL. The variables were throw-away code; I just didn't want to have to hard-code the test date-ranges over and over again; minimise chances of spelling errors.

Needless to say, felt my problem-solving skills went up one level after this task. Saw my coding style and unit tests improve. And also the thought processes that go into how to maintain code quality...

It bothers me more than it should when people pronounce sql as sequel.

so guys, how do you say SQL? "sequel" or "es-kyu-el"?

...huh. So SQL is really pronounced as 'sequel'? Still prefer saying it letter-by-letter though :P

I called it "Microsoft S.Q.L" but Bobby argued it's Sequel not S.Q.L then I asked Bobby "PostgreSQL" and also he said "Postgre Sequel". Hehe sequel my ass then cus I'm sticking with my abbreviation.

Atom or VS Code?

The unexpected sequel to the 'vim or emacs' debate.

Me (out loud in a meeting): "we currently have a SQL Express license, but the traffic with the additional servers is causing crashes when the cache fills up. We need to upgrade to the standard version.”

Follow up email from mngr planning to retire in 6 months currently making roughly 3x my salary: "See if we can get a proposal to purchase better Sequel software and install."

Me:

How do you pronounce SQL?

1 s q l
2 sequel
3 squirrel

Sequel or S Q L?

I find myself dipping between the two recently depending on who I'm talking to. It's driving my insane and I can't stop myself -_-

The first anime that I watched, almost 20 years ago, just came out with a sequel....

The thought is just wow.... it's been so long since...

But looks like the characters didn't grow... lol

We've had tabs vs spaces, gif vs jif, but how about S Q L vs sequel? Which one do you prefer? I'm in camp sequel.

To you who enjoyed the Gif/Jiff, Sequel/EsQueEll, Git/Jeet grandiose debates, comes the new phonetic conundrum: DevREnt vs. DevRUnt. Soon, in monitors near you.

I've alway pronounced it sequel but everyone I know swears it's SQL, so I say that now to fit in.

I feel like a spy, lying to my closest friends everyday...

'Ess que elle' or 'sequel'? I'm the former.

"What you mean I have to get a log on for a sequel server? What's a sequel to a server?"

As a sequel to my previous rant:
Me: git pull origin develop

Prettier: * runs *

* 5000 new changes in 43 files *

Thanks prettier, that's exactly what i wanted to happen. I guess it's time for me to tweak its settings a little.

the sequel.

Going back and rewatching Star Wars stuff only to remember and get pissed off once again about the Sequel Trilogy. I can’t believe some people are allowed to make movies, watching a dog poop has more value than the entire story of those three movies, and Disney can go fuck themselves for that.

I recently heard someone pronounce SQL as "Sequel". Is that actually the correct pronunciation? Have I been saying it wrong all those years?

Jif
Visgii
Uvisgii
Sequel
Gooii

WHY!!

So first reflex in looking what Electron development looks like was making a Hello world app. So it just makes a window saying "Hello world".
Then I proceed to editing the menu, and the quit option is "Goodbye world"... and I realized, or at least I thought... this is a bit... grim?

5 months on development for the new plarforms, can't get enough of coding...hope to finish soon!

What Database client do you use? I'm currently using Sequel Pro. Right now I'm comparing TablePlus and DataGrip.

DataGrip - not user friendly and complicated to use but powerful
TablePlus

If you call it Sequel and not S.Q.L and you happen to be from India, I will assume you’re a corporate shmuck. Fight me.

Funny, I just said to myself "Of course, the developer does it right. anyone else doing it differently is simply wrong" on how to pronounce SQL.
Yet, when it comes to gif, I totally disregard the developer.

I guess I have to either start saying "djiff" or stop thinking that whoever invented something gets to decide it's pronunciation :D

Oh amazon... 2 THE SEQUEL.

I absolutely hate it when people pronounce MySQL as MySequel but I have no problems with people pronouncing SQL server as Sequel Server. It's a weird world.

Goodbye Ampps, hello Valet!!

Just got a Macbook Pro recently for personal web dev stuff. Previously, I usually use Ampps (like MAMP) for my local development.

But I want to move away from that as I wanted to go through the whole process of setting up my own local dev env.

After 3 days of trial and errors and many deadends, finally managed to get an existing Craft project running on Valet. The most tedious part was figuring out how connect Sequel Pro to local MySQL.

Through this whole process I've learned how to use Homebrew, setup MySQL with Sequel Pro, use Valet and most importantly, learning how to troubleshoot these problems...

Exclaimed a big YES! And mum came rushing into my room thinking I was mad... whateva...

Next step, figure out Docker.

This is the sequel to my previous rant, if you don't know about it, go check my profile.

So, for some reason, when I opened YouTube Vanced, I am trapped into a loop of loading animation. And I thought "Hmm... Maybe my Internet sucks, let's try again.".

Then I switched my Internet on and off, go back to YouTube Vanced, the same loading animation loop.

Then I do switching the Internet for about 30 minutes, go back to YouTube Vanced, no progression.

Then I thought "What about YouTube?", I open Youtube, and you know what, YouTube loads it PERFECTLY. The loading animation takes longer than usual, but at the end, it still loads my recommendation and anything!

I thought "Wait, do they have an update?", then I go to Vanced Manager, and no, there is no new update for both Vanced and Vanced microG. There is a new update for Vanced Manager, though.

I decided to report a bug, but then I realized that the problem I am facing is too ambiguous for the developer to fix, so I decided not to do it.

So yeah, now I am sticking with YouTube, since I cannot find a solution better than it, and if you ask me, YouTube Vanced is still trapped in the loading animation loop.

JUST IN: The unexpected sequel to my previous rant that NOBODY asked for!

I'll give it to you in dialogue form as it's more dramatic and *juicy* that way...

(Context: wizard used the warrior's blood, who descends from an ancient lineage of powerful sorcerors, to cast a high-level spell which allowed the party to teleport to safety when they were trapped and about to die. The warrior is worried about his crazy use of black magic, so she confronts him about it.)

"Alright, old man," she says, her tone serious, yet tinged with concern. "I couldn't help but notice the... let's call it 'unorthodox' spellcasting earlier. What was that about?"

"Well, you wanted me to draw the circle using golden dust and a lamb for the sacrifice?" Uzair raises an eyebrow, his tone riddled with sarcasm. "Because spells of that level of complexity require both things, you know? A circle and an offering." He explains calmly, then shakes his head. "But turns out, the blood of an Ashaffi accounts for both things if you draw the sigils with it. Hey, don't blame me, your own ancestors invented it!"

"Very funny, Uzair." Hashade crosses her arms, her expression unamused. "But seriously, that shit was utterly deranged. I can't have you going all 'Black Scorpion' on our ass, what with the demented use of blood magic, needlessly setting entire buildings ablaze and that mother fucking all-incinerating black hellfire inferno." Her voice is stern, but her eyes show genuine care. "You're... __BREAKING BAD__, old man! You have to chill."

"Oh, so is my wizardry getting on your neves now, is it?" He recoils back slightly in suprise, feeling offended. "We just spanked the Sanie's Guild buttcheeks until they were red and swollen, then proceeded to __FUCK__ them in the ASS with a *DIAMOND* fucking COCK. And you're complaining?"

Hashade's eye's reveal her agitation. "I'm not complaining, I'm concerned! We're not just fighting for ourselves, we're fighting for everyone else too! And if you start playing fast and loose with that kind of power, we're gonna have more than just *one* black smoldering crater to deal with." Her voice is firm, but it's clear she's trying to keep the situation from escalating. "Look, I know you're powerful, but that's not an excuse to go full-on mad scientist on us. We gotta keep our shit tight, yeah?"

"Concerned?!" He tilts his head to the side. "What, you think I'm becoming evil? Come on, spit it out!"

"Evil? No, I don't..." Hashade sighs, running a hand through her silver hair. "Oh no, you know what, yeah. I do. I think you're slowly turning evil." Her expression hardens. "You swapped your book of supplications for a grimoire detailing the most horrible shit in excruciating detail! You shouted out 'G-d is great' while witnessing a disastrous explosion that left everyone else traumatized! You joked around before and after cutting two guards in half, for fuck's sake!" She lowers her head and pinches her nose bridge. "I don't know, I'll admit that, I just don't know what's this shit that's gotten to you. But I don't like it, I really don't. I don't like where this is going, old man!"

"Well," He said, calmly. "you killed El-Fuqer by forcing him to eat his own cock and balls while sowing his ass shut and then took a fat stinking dump on his face." He quietly recalled the, ehem, 'little' incident. "But see, I don't waggle your fucking nutsack about the fucked up shit you've done. And I'm not going to start now."

"THAT'S DIFFERENT! THAT WAS __JUSTICE__!" Her eyes flashed with anger.

"JUSTICE?!! YOU CALL SHITTING ON A CORPSE 'JUSTICE'?!!" He pushed her to the side and stormed out. "I MAY BE AN EVIL WIZARD, BUT I NEVER DEFECATED ON MY ENEMIES, HASHADE. NEVER. FOR FUCKS SAKE!"

"Wait!" Her voice cracked. "You can't just leave like this!"

"I can." He didn't even look back. "And I am."

"I'm not leaving you alone!" She strides closer to him, ignoring the sting of his words. "I can't let you destroy yourself like this!"

(ROGUE BUSTS IN THROUGH THE KITCHEN) "ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT, YOU TWO, GET A ROOM ALREADY!"

What mysql client do you use in Mac with Dark mode? Table plus free is good and was thinking on purchasing it but sequel pro have better user experience. Currently no dark mode in sequel pro. Thanks! 😁

We need a sequel to Shaq Fu.

Playing the sequel of my childhood game. It is pretty good, although it runs like 2 FPS on my potato PC.

(I have to take it from my phone because the WiFi device I currently have is garbage)

Suggestions for any good SQL Client for macOS (Except Sequel Pro)

Es-que-el or sequel? What pronounce you use more often?

Question time;

Do you guys pronounce the database query language as 'S.Q.L.' or 'See-quel'

Personally hearing the latter makes me want to punch the person saying it right in the throat.

*****edit
Please forgive the pea-roast, didn't check to see if this had been previously asked.

Ruby is like the plot of highlander 2 people may be ashamed being familiar with it but someone is somewhere

Most people however note society skipped right past it in the sequel

Additionally as I watch the same crap scroll by I wonder with deep sadness what happened to the world

I really don't understand javascript sometimes... I'm trying out feathersjs, and I really like the idea of the services/hooks architecture. I even see they include some conveniently preconfigured database services. So I see they also have the ability to generate the tables from my javascript (using knexjs) I figure hey this is great and really convenient and a nice in between using a full ORM and straight up sequel... problem is, it only works sometimes, because it seems every database adapter in javascript all run asynchronously I can't seem to figure out how to make it wait for the database to finish being created, before the rest of the framework configuration finishes...

I've spent nearly like... 5 hours wasting my time on this trying to understand why/how it works the way it does, when I could have just written a sql script (which I will be doing...)

I just want to curl up in a corner for a bit after this experience...
