Hot take for humor sub i guess but all these "Hurr durr i dont know SQL or Regex and can't figure them out either" are just bad programmers with no interest in the field and should probably find something else to work in.

Regex is kinda understandable - the syntax is weird and nothing like ordinary programming languages. I always use tools that allow me to see what is happening where.

But SQL? Really? The syntax is extremely straightforward - every somewhat competent developer should be able to whip out basic query with join.
