I’m considering switching from using an ORM (Gorm) to Sqlc for my project I want to get my hands dirty again writing SQL again I’m beginning to get tired of the abstraction, not to mention the subtle performance overhead that comes with using ORMs.

Today, I decided to switch from GORM ORM to sqlc. It feels nice to write SQL again after a long time. I’m also using Goose as my migration tool

I don’t think I can see myself doing anything else in life apart from being a software engineer. This has to work, or I’m cooked 😄

One of my main goals for 2026 is showing up and using social media to my advantage You can be the best at what you do but if you lack visibility it amounts to nothing. A popular Noobie is better than a hidden expert.
