ORMs suck, but raw SQL embedded in your code sucks too.
This might be good time to plug my Postgres/TypeScript non-ORM: https://jawj.github.io/zapatos/.
I should say I also like what I've seen of https://kysely.dev/ and https://pgtyped.dev/.
Agreed, but tools like https://sqlc.dev, which I mention in the article, are a good trade-off that allows you to have verified, testable, SQL in your code.

I know tons of Java and Go Dev's who don't like ORMs and for a good reason.
But no Django developer ever cribs about ORMs.
Ironically I started drafting this article in 2021, when I had to deal with a Django codebase littered with nested N+1 queries due to using the ORM in the most pythonic way.
