1- Popularity among technical people "might sometimes" mean more people have found the specific product suits them.
2- MySQL is available on almost every shared and dedicated hosting service. PostgreSQL is rarely available on shared services. I have developed a small web based ERP but I was forced to go with MySQL since most of my potential customers would want to run it on shared services.
I was IT manager in a Bank with 300 branches. I had less personnel than needed and everyone including myself was stressed.
At one point in time, I became 100% sure that I will have a heart attack in the next 6 months. I applied to a postgraduate course and ran away after 8 years of working in the bank.
I am now in the peaceful academy. The only thing I should do is to teach well and correct papers in an acceptable way (to keep both school and students happy). Besides the work is a real service to society, not just a service to make bank owners more rich.
The commercial version is being called hosted exchange service. So I assume it might use exchange servers?
There will be no hotmail anymore (the domain and the email addresses can be used though) and all the services will be moved to outlook.com services and the new UI.
Btw, I had a very clean 3 bedroom apartment at 17th floor looking to sea for $300/month (in Penang).
I bought a second hand car for $3000 and the petrol is $0.7/litter. A good meal is less than $4 (Chicken rice in best Indian restaurants). Big Mac costs $2.6.
Philippine is unsafe and the economy is slightly better than India. I have been warned not to carry and show a DSLR in the streets and make sure to return home before the dark (unless I have a car or use a safe taxi). Even Indonesia is safer and it has a better economy than Philippine.
Singapore is a small island with a very competitive and stressful society which is very racist at the same time (against non-Singaporean Chinese, other Chinese won't count).
It is easy to track illegal gateways if you provide services to public. But I guess if you use it for yourself no one can easily find (unless the dish is very easy to identify among the millions of satellite dishes in Iran).
Yes, Iran does have DPI facilities. I have seen them personally 7 years ago. It was around 20 Standard racks of equipment at that time (in the main site I saw). I guess the size of equipments has increased by many times now (to cover the whole country).
But I read in a news website that they have closed VPN "ports". If that means blocking standard ports then it will be easy to change ports.
Blocking Facebook is indeed good for countries, universities and companies. Wherever I go in our university (libraries, computer labs,...) most of the students are wasting their time on Facebook and similar websites.
If Facebook was available 2000 years ago, we possibly would raid donkeys now and newton was updating his Facebook status instead of doing research.
and he is an associate professor and not a professor. I guess I read somewhere that he was previously promoted to associate professor level by the same university.
I don't say that he does not deserve to get the promotion (because I think he deserves that promotion), but it is not proper to fabricate and bring out things out of order (to support someone).
On a side note, I have traveled to Singapore a few times and my impression is that it is a closed and highly controlled state. It is a small island and the government has been able to implement all kinds of controls over the citizens. I guess I heard you are being tracked all the time when you drive a car (you put your card in the car which is then tracked in the whole city). Like many other countries in the region (e.g. Malaysia, Thailand), expressing political ideas and critics is a no no (specially for foreigners). I thought it is not a suitable place for long stays, the community is over-competitive, there is too much work stress and pressure, a recent law may push the cost of owning a car to $1.5 million, property prices (both rental and owning) is crazy high, the whole country is limited to an island (you reach the other end in half an hour).
Oh my! Did they kill anyone of each other's family?
This story of hate, love and enemies in software industry is pathetic. Human beings always look for differences to start a fight (race, language, religion, borders, country, skin color, city,...) and now the programming languages they use!!!

Why the Future Belongs To MariaDB? Because he will sell it to another company and will become rich again? That's about his future I guess.

I wish there was a smaller unit than bits. The headline would become more exciting!
That may suddenly come up with something meaningful !!
Because primary keys do not change!!! If it is revealed to public you could do nothing to change it. That has possibly been the idea behind it!
Another reason is that another field in the database (to hold a secret password) would take excessive! space.
I have also installed start8 and I don't see any Windows 8 unless I want (i.e. ctrl+ Click on start menu).
I have also installed another software from Start8 producer that allows you to run metro apps in a normal Window!!! How is that?
Thanks for the information.
I am just curious. Why a rocket engine has a turbine inside? One of the photos on Jeff's blog is of a turbine. Anyone is aware?
Samsung has been making watch-phones since perhaps 2009:

This one was even earlier but cancelled: http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_watch_phone-418.php

With $900 I had a very good life in Penang.
You can have an Ok life with $1000 in Penang or Johor. In KL you may need $1200 for the same.
With $2000 you will have a very good life.

Malaysia is relatively safe , very cheap with friendly people (at least with non-Chinese). You may also give thought to Thailand.

Wait until the media companies force the same to the US (they will reason that people use VPN to avoid ISP warnings).

There are hundreds of private ISPs but all of them pass through the government controlled gateways.

Major email providers could start charging received emails at a rate cheaper than SMS ($0.01-$0.03).
If paying a small money would make email spam free I would go for it. I send 100 emails a month at most and that would become $1-$3 per month.
A web server of a read-only website, still accepts connections and web requests. There are listening sockets and there are connecting clients.
