A surprising amount of work at Stripe involves sharing results from ad-hoc SQL queries. (Not just on eng teams, either). How common is this?

-
no, I actually think the ad hoc queries are its strength once you invest in the data modeling
-
to be precise, at that point you're not actually writing SQL, right? But letting Looker generate it.
-
yes exactly. It's very good at that - basically allows me to responsibly remain a SQL amateur. Awesome for lean teams.
-
My experience of various companies is that sharing ad hoc SQL adds a lot of value. Lots of questions are counting...

we rolled our own adhoc query server (w/some basic result caching and link shortening) for this very purpose.

ditto, this was "Superbit" at Etsy, a significant % of the company used it.
