Learning ORM without learningn sql is great for beginnners. Ex: Django Framework for new comers. But like any abstracction, learning SQL will allow you to optimize w raw sql as needed.
Its like trying to learn coffeescript without learning JavaScript. It always helps to learn from bottom up..

- bni 12y agoI disagree. Some of the worst horrors Ive seen over my carrer is systems written by developers using an ORM "So they don't have to learn SQL". I find some folks has these really strong beliefs: 1. SQL is for DBAs, Im a developer! 2. SQL is legacy and if you use it directly you must be some kind of luddite. 3. I tried to write some SQL once by copy/pasting someone else's, and I got really strange results back. Nevermind that I dint try to actually understand the query.
