Common ORMs by language * JavaScript / TypeScript: Prisma, Drizzle, TypeORM, Sequelize, MikroORM, Kysely (query builder, not strictly ORM) * Python: SQLAlchemy, Django ORM

Use Precomputed Hashes Instead of BCrypt in Test
I asked Claude to find the slowest test file again after my success [earlier today](/speeding-up-willow-camp-s-post_test-rb-by-99) and Claude found a call to BCrypt in my fixtures that was gobbling up time.
