That’s what I like about Ruby ORMs. They did all the conversion for you, and you could have SQLite on your dev box, Postgres on the test server and MySQL on the annoying production host that wouldn’t run anything else.

This was 18 years ago though.

Are not all ORMs like that? I only used ActiveRecord before fucking off from backend 10 years ago
