Yup that is me. I do what I like doing though, I don't yell at people or care what they do. I use lots of new things too like JSON web tokens, JSON SQL functions, vscode, new JavaScript/html/css features, etc.

Sorry if reply is shorter than I would like due to hand, but the dynamic aspects I have encountered have been solved by case when as mentioned, boolean expressions on parameters (where $1 is true or id = $2), or in the worst cast just not caring about DRY in this scenario. Also I use json_agg etc for ORM-like mapping to arrays and objects. I do some other tricks too like bypassing a bunch of redundant and slow parsing steps by sending the result in certain queries back to app server as a single text column that is in JSON (this is via wrapping queroes, not manually) so it can send that to the client. No db driver parsing, converting to objects, back to JSON, etc etc.

It is against the TOS of the largest ISP in my country to even host a server of any sort. Colocation isn't that fun.

Now this would be a real improvement, not some new framework of the week.

I hate every new technology listed in this article. I recently removed all of my SQL-in-programming-language code (orm, strings of SQL) etc, and just wrote actual SQL in files with .sql at the end and load them at run-time. I am now, when my finger heels, going to do the same for the React. I hate React. I have been using it for years and I have never enjoyed it. I feel like everything made after the boomer technology just sucks. I am going to write html, css and JavaScript, and as intended, not fake JavaScript (React), not mangled css, etc. I noticed when setting out on this journey that vscode and I am assuming others, have little support for these things, which is hilarious. vscode can't even detect unclosed meta tags in html, yet can detect a million React syntax errors.
