  • lol. Then you don't understand how much more effort goes into making those queries work. You can always search for the data you need with code:/

      Choice for RDBMS vs dictionary is fully dictated by problem space. You won't implement Facebook or Google in SQL, but you would.not wrote a commercial app in NoSQL.

      How does doing DB work in code help? Not an expert here but can code use indexes to lookup data?

      I work on dashboarding and there is no way around using joins.

    Itโ€™s pain writing a complicated query but it feels great once itโ€™s done.

    Joins can be hard to visualize at first, but you can learn SQL in like a week

      Absolutely not, but the wlb is amazing. They closed down the silicon valley office since they didn't want to compete.

      You might get a good salary in Paris depending on the team though. I think the Paris based R&D team likely the best.
