I found this link on Hacker News, and it seems to be a transpiler to generate SQL from a new language.
It’s been a long time since I have written SQL, but I’m sure this could be interesting since SQL can be infuriating for most developers I’ve worked with.
Because when you divide by zero and get a runtime error, the error will point you to location in SQL, not PRQL.
It’s like if an error in a C++ program would point you to an offset in a binary and not the location in the source. This has a slight tone of sarcasm, because that’s how compiled languages used to work. But after the years, they patched all leaks of their abstraction and now you are dealing just with the new language.
