Seriously, if the NSA said that they were NOT working with Google, would you believe them? It is probably safe to assume that the NSA, CIA and a myriad of other agencies are working with other governments and companies. If they weren't, they wouldn't be doing their jobs.
"MS SQL was designed and likely largely tested in a single processor system and multiprocessor or HT support is somewhat less than optimal. So MS SQL is likely best tuned to single processor."
Where did you get this wallop of information? It is not true, MS SQL Server performs very well in multiprocessor environments (not using Hyperthreading). Checkout the TPC benchmarks if you don't believe me: http://www.tpc.org/

While I loosely agree with the article that GAIM and the like fall short on the more 'communal' aspects of chatting, I tend to like the fvwm like feel to GAIM. Light, compact and not too terribly flashy.
My point is that GAIM and similar chat programs, do *NOT* support *ALL* the features of the commercial ones (MSN Messenger, Yahoo, etc).
apparently your traffic goes out from a single machine acting as you - if that machine is a dialup, you're screwed. there isn't any form of load balancing that I can tell. I'll revisit TOR later.
umm.... what do you think a query is? It is a set of instructions to the DBMS of how to retrieve a desired set of data. a stored procedure has less of an impact on the DBMS than an adhoc query because it is already compiled to be used by the engine.
You have much to learn about databases and are likely trolling but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.
for small number of applications you would have a point but if you are dealing with thousands of machines in an enterprise environment, your argument falls apart. Keeping the changes in a central location with the ability to 'roll back' any of the changes quickly is the goal.
If the applications are written in one of the various scripting languages, then this argument doesn't apply:
One major problem with enterprise applications is that when a problem is found in an adhoc query (poorly written, a bug with the DBMS, performance related, etc) then the application would normally have to be recompiled and pushed out to the entire enterprise (could be tens of thousands of computers to push to). This isn't desirable.
Moving the queries into stored procedures (where possible) allows you to correct the stored procedure at a central location and roll it back to the 'old' stored procedure if necessary with minimal effort.
A good rule of thumb: use stored procedures for compiled applications
This study really only shows the defects in the MySQL code base and nothing about proprietary database source code.
The analysis of the proprietary databases' source code is by guessing as they don't have access to the proprietary source code and therefore can not make such a claim.
While I have no doubt that the open source model is superior in development, this study, unfortunately, proves nothing. Smoke and mirrors..:-(
actually, no... not impossible. Think about it. Slightly adjusting the exhaust will direct the missile in another direction... but the arcs that were shown in the movie would require more adjustments - most likely gas ports such as on the fighters... just because we didnt' see them doesn't mean they weren't there

I concur. There seems to be a great deal of misunderstanding about clusters. Especially when talking about High Availability.
Many people think that when you have a HA cluster, that the DBMS will run faster. Not necessarily. If you have an active-active HA cluster, then you only put a load of upto 50% on the boxes because when one node fails over to the other, that single node has to do the work of both.
Another thing that seems to be misunderstood is that HA can be handled entirely in software.. this is false for production HA clusters. You will need hardware and software support for the cluster. Shared SCSI Disk Array for instance is required by NT, Sun Solaris, HP, AIX, etc.
While, I commend their efforts, what they are offering is little more than a poor man's High Availability cluster.
The shared disk array (RAID, etc.) is just a part of implementating HA.
My recommendation is for the developers to take a look at how it is implemented in the enterprise DBMSs (Sybase, Oracle, MS SQL Server, DB2) first.

AMD: No Grease For You!
·
· Score: 2, Interesting
Exactly where did AMD say it would void the warrantee? All AMD said, according to the article, is that they recommend a particular type of thermal grease. They didn't even MENTION the word "warantee"!
High Availability support at the hardware and os levels. Right now, there is little more than a hodge-podge set of utilities that allow us to set up a "poor man's" HA cluster.
A standard HA cluster-aware API for applications to failover/failback.
This is implemented quite nicely in HPUX, Solaris, AIX, and even Win2k Advanced Server (not Unix tho;-)

"Of course a database server isn't going to take advantage of a hyperthreaded CPU. It doesn't do any FPU at all."
Actually MS SQL Server and Sybase ASE do use the FPU. I'm not sure about Oracle though.

Do you really want the MPAA to run programs on your computer?
Are you a complete idiot? Reasoning did NOT analyze ANY commercial code. They took a look at an "industry" statistic... which has no value.
When you actually are able to read what the article says and not what you want it to say please enter the human race otherwise stay with the primates.

if they contain a great deal of win32 specific code, then a while. if little or no win32 specific code, then a few weeks after release.

Many of the components may be developed using licensed code from other companies and/or covered under 3rd party patents.
Before we open up the champagne, let's see just how many of the components will be in a usable form for new development.
