If I were a JS developer who only wanted to write JS, but I needed to do a database query, should I look for a database that lets me write queries in JavaScript (or a language basically interchangeable with JS)? Or should I just learn SQL?

Sometimes as a programmer you need to learn new tools for new domains, and that's not necessarily a bad thing.

This.

Too often I've seen companies stuck with an old framework just because their developers are used to it. That's how you get a microservice architecture in Java where each containers takes 300MB of space, and requires 1GB of memory.

I'm frankly amazed that the people who brought us node.js haven't also created a JS query language, furthering the spread of the triple-equals to new and greater heights.
