Working with databases is a relatively solved problem. You can access them from just about any language on any platform. A more accurate statement would be: choosing the right access method to work with databases is difficult.
- ronanyeah 6y agoWell said. Though Hasura makes it easier.
- arxpoetica 6y agoAgree to disagree. For certain kinds of programmers who tend to think more analytically, databases are easy to work with. For those of us who tend to think more visually or kinesthetically, I appreciate tools that are trying to solve problems at a less-lingual/code level.
- albertgao 6y agoIsn't a DB naturally embrace 'visually'? I mean, there is a table. Every time I think of a table, I get a picture in my brain... xD
- ogre_codes 6y ago> A more accurate statement would be: choosing the right access method to work with databases is difficult. For me, it's the fiddly bit where you interface between the programming language and the database is a PITA.
