I was curious how have sentiments changed over time. Brief LLM-based analysis: https://ampcode.com/threads/T-019f32ac-3b1e-74be-ad63-5f175d...

Overall, seems like it got more nuanced over time - even though it's still broadly in favor of SQL. Favor for ORMs (flagged also as a term that can mean many things to different people) is more in terms of type safety, mapping, migrations, etc. so more a library/utility rather than a framework that fully abstracts away the database.

Seems like we needed an annual meditation on this topic until 2021, then we took a 5 year hiatus? What happened?
