This introduces a non-trivial increase in syllabatic inefficiencies
I'm glad this is top comment, I thought I was weird for a moment there
I just pronounce it exactly like reading the letters individually, because I'm actually a human being.

Git outta here skinbag!

I have never heard of someone call SQL squeal lmao, sequel or S Q L is all I have heard
In French, we just pronounce it as three letters, so I was very confused at first when my English-speaking colleagues were referring to sequels of apparently nothing.
Itβs always Star Wars
Both pronounciations are wrong. Skvæl is the correct way to pronounce the acronym.
S-Q-L or rarely sequel, never heard any other pronounciation in my life :P
Log4j is another fun one.
Log For Jay or Log Forge?
Low gaj
I second "sizzle" or "sissle." My partner pronounces API as "appy" and it's the best thing ever.
That's adorable.
I've always pronounced it "sequel", but ever since I attended a talk by the authors of PHP and MySQL Web Programming, and they pronounced it Ess-Cue-Ell I've been second guessing myself.
What I remember attending a PHP event in ~2009 was one of the old veterans there saying:
Only Microsoft folks say "Sequel Server", we say "My S Q L"
I always pronounced it as ess-cue-ell but gave up on it when everyone in professional environments said "sequel".
