This has been on my mind for a long, long time. Having been spoiled with SQLAlchemy and Elixir, I am tortured with sub-par ORM libraries while at work. Granted I did get to use SA for an internal project, but the majority of the things I do involves PHP.
I’ve been stuck with it for years. It is the language of choice for people who run servers and hate web developers. So yeah, 5 years of PHP and MySQL …and using so many different libs for database abstraction has given me some room to shoot my mouth off.
Anyway, this is going to be a long post and not for the faint of heart. I’m going to start off at the beginning…
