>One other limitation may bug a lot of PHP users - Postgres has no equivalent to MySQL's mysql_insertid() function call.
That's because Postgres doesn't support auto_increment, like mySQL does (it uses a sequence instead).
>MySQL begins collapsing at about 40-50 concurrent connections
What does "collapsing" mean?
>Research reveals that MySQL locks the entire table when an insert occurs
True, but did you read this? It gives tips on how to tune apps that have problems with table locking!
I think this article is crap - All they've done is imported identical data into the 2 databases and compared the results! - In the Real World, you'd performance tune the databases before putting them into production, therefore this isn't a valid comparison.
As an aside, what the hell is wrong with mysql.org? It's mashed!
They'd have to do more than that... They'd also need to preserve copies of browsers that render the pages as they do today, and also keep a machine or two (or develop emulators) to run them on..... Maybe even keep a server or two + some network hardware.
Search engines, websites like this one, messaging systems (ICQ, AIM, Hotlines) weblogs (like www.camworld.com), individual Web pages, movie and consumer sites (www.imdb.com, www.deja.com) research and software sites -- their mission is remarkably uniform -- sensemaking
What? You're saying that discussions about Hot Grits, Penis Birds and Natalie Portman make sense?:-)
This site (www.eegss.com) has a big list of them! My favourite one was the doom-style thing in one of the M$ Office applications - It had a shrine to Bill Gates in it!

here ... and you get a free pizza with the case, too! :-)
ipv6.org has lots of stuff for the less well informed, including the implementations that are currently available.
Oh, and the Linux HOWTO.
A list of DVD players that are multi-region hackable (with hacks), for those of us that can't wait for country specific releases :-)

Sure, sites like /. probably don't need all the features
:-)
Erm, I thought slashdot were funding the development of transaction support for MySQL?
but when you're dealing with $50k+ orders on the websites, you'd better believe it that these orders better not go "missing" due to *anything*
