                          According to this highly scientific poll, this matter has been settled.

                          Rafael Pérez 🌱 (@rperezrosario@mastodon.social)

                          Now that this important problem has been settled, repeat after me: "Don't believe es-queue-el is a sequel." Thank you, and good night.

                              personally, i've always pronounced SQL as "squeal", since that's usually my reaction when i have to deal with it.

                              DNS could be "dins". with small TTLs, it's really really noisy.
