Hi, all 👋 I am Syed Fazle Rahman, one of the creators of Hashnode. Starting today I will be publishing a series of articles every week called "Best Hashnode Answers." In these articles, I will curate some of the best answers or comments written by fellow Hashnoders in a particular week and feature them for a day. So, let's start with the past week.
Q: Show me cool, obscure languages!
Answer by Shreyansh Pandey
Thanks, Shreyansh for introducing the concept of Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and Arduino to the Hashnode readers. It is incredible to know how we can easily program 4 DoF drone using these cool obscure languages.

Q: In which conditions should you choose NoSQL or SQL (referring to tables) as your database?
Answer by Shreyansh Pandey
Shreyansh is on a roll this week. Keep it going. The programming community needs more developers like you. 🍺
In his answer, Shreyansh explains the differences between NoSQL and SQL databases. He dives deeper into the concept of ACID, Characterization of the Dataset, Making a Choice, etc. Give it a read if you want to refresh the basic concepts of databases.
