Yeah, I’m jealous of all the postgresql and MySQL people. SQL Server doesn’t have them and this kind of query would cause pain.


As someone who used to use MSSQL extensively and is now forced into MySQL, trust me, do not be jealous of the MySQL people. 5.7 fixed some of the most egregious issues and 8.0 is adding some features, but the smoldering embers of the dumpster fire are still around.


SQL Server can index a computed field, which is more-less the same thing.
