Why are low effort comments not worthwhile but low effort docs are fine?

Could not agree less. Ive always found SQL an unreadable mess but tools like polars and dplyr are such elegant ways to manipulate data.

Pandas is a mess though.

There's no way SQL is more unreadable than polars. IMO it's the other way around.

I think on basic queries, SQL is really nice, but when stuff gets more complex, with a bunch of CTEs, let alone functions requiring loops, it becomes pretty obtuse.

I would say that it is easier to decompose polars (and all dataframe api) queries and to build them up from pieces than it is to do the same with sql. Any time I find myself writing more than five or so lines of sql, or especially building a sql string in parts with logic, I wish I had a dataframe api instead. But the reverse is also somewhat true, that simpler and explicit expressions are nicer with sql.

Hello ClosedRouter!

Disappointed to see how many of the comments here are fairly negative. Especially for a site that so values true open source.

While this isn't the ereader for me (I need a larger screen and buttons), I absolutely love the idea and passion behind this project. I will look into supporting, if finances allow, as its something I could easily gift to younger members of the family.

Huge congrats getting it to this point!
