Upwork’s bidding system is really getting out of hand. You could bid 520 and still might not even land the job — and Upwork still makes money off it. They’re literally trying to monetize freelancers at every step: fees, taxes, income cuts. Last time they changed it, instead of a fixed Freelancer Service Fee, they switched to a variable fee between 0–15% for new contracts.
BTW, 520 Connects is around $80.

How to Choose Between SQL, Query Builders, and ORMs in Node.js

TLDR When building Node.js applications with relational databases, developers can choose between raw SQL, query builders, and ORMs. Each approach has its strengths and weaknesses. Raw SQL offers fine-grained control and performance but is complex to manage. Query builders provide a balanced and secure way to create queries, while ORMs offer high-level abstraction for quick development and schema management. Ultimately, the best choice depends on the specific needs of the project and the developer's expertise. A hybrid approach combining these methods can also be effective.
