mysql users who want to make postgresql people look bad? perhaps you didn't already notice, but they do that all by themselves without any assistance whatsoever.
mysql stories always end up being accosted by hordes of postgresql missionaries, perhaps they'd win more converts if they weren't so shrill "you're going to HELL unless you convert, you miserable sinner!"
Somehow I doubt you'll stop claiming the mysql code is messy though. It's fashionable to bash mysql these days, and nobody wants to give up their pet reason for bashing it, even if it's baseless.
You mean you were actually convinced by the marketspeak? I saw right through it -- mysql is saying what sco wants to hear, not what mysql actually believes.
microsoft is running a SPAMFILTER on their abuse@hotmail.com account!
that's right. if your complaint isn't bounced with:
Unfortunately, we cannot take action on the mail you sent us because it does not reference a Hotmail account.
then your complaints get bounced with:
----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- abuse@css.one.microsoft.com
(reason: 550 5.7.1 <Your e-mail was rejected by an anti-spam content filter on gateway (131.107.3.125).Reason...uage, graphics, or spam-like characteristics. Removing these may let the e-mail through the filter.>)
i think this is a great example of what's wrong with microsoft in general.
sounds like mythtv should switch to sqlite. it's far more suitable, has a less restrictive license than postgresql, is easier to embed, and has zero-configuration. not even postgresql can boast zero-config.
why not use sqlite then? the license is even less restrictive than postgresql's (it doesnt have the chest-beating "you must include this advert for ucb" in it).
it would appear fortinet is indirectly violating sanctions/embargos on myanmar. perhaps it's time to hold them liable -- then they might bother to actually clean up their reseller network.
postgresql joins qmail and openbsd in the proud and honored tradition of insulting potential end users with a supremacist attitude and ego the size of galaxies......and then join in the feverish hand wringing wondering why few people want to use it...
(hint: you win few converts by talking down to them)
so what exactly is mysql preventing you from doing?
i think the postgresql supremacist attitude explains a lot about why it's not used, sorta like how djb's neutron-star-dense ego turns people away from qmail.
guess the war on terror isnt all that important anymore, since they're focusing so hard on prosecuting sex between consenting adults that they had to establish special task forces.
keep that in mind when the feds beg for more antiterrorism funding. just tell them they can go raid the pr0n task force funds before they come begging us for more $$.
sure democrats would love to kill off porn, i doubt they'd divert antiterrorism funding and personnel to establish special antipr0n task forces to do it though. police actions have always been the hallmark of the religious right.
never gonna happen. what with all of bush's vested interests in the petroleum industry (haliburton et al). why would bush ever want to investigate himself? or do anything that would reduce his profits?
the only punishment that historically seems to have any impact on corporate behavior is to send corporate executives to prison. anything else has no effect, it's just "the price of doing business".
I thought there was supposed to be an endlessly moving target so that you could continue bashing mysql because it's fashionable and PC.
It doesn't matter what feature set actually mysql has, it's just hip to bash it just like it's leet to bash linux when you're a (free|open|net)bsd fanatic.
because they work a hospital that has an ER and get to see motorcycle accident victims on a regular basis and statistically speaking thats a good description of motorcyle accidents.
actually what happened was dec got distracted by itanium, dec lost focus, and alpha development largely ground to a halt. a brilliant move by intel to sabotage the competition. the dec/compaq/hp fiascos were the final nails in the coffin of axp. the 21264 was the last real innovation to emerge from dec, it was all downhill from there.
a friend of mine worked at dec in their unix labs from pre-compaq-merger to the fall of axp and it was interesting to get his insiders view of things.

so why doesnt anyone use postgresql?
maybe its the fanatic and demeaning attitude of postgresql users?
sort of like why nobody uses qmail or openbsd -- because djb and tdr have egos the size of galaxies.

I wonder how you think mysql managed 4) ?
Can you provide evidence php is dead because of mysql?

the jury of peers that are stockholders (or worse, patent holders).
exactly. you can expect congress to extend patents into virtual permanence. wouldn't be suprised if they make it apply retroactively too.
keep in mind some companies business models (microsoft,sco,etc) depend on misrepresnting the origin of code. :)

i'm curious what exactly was unclear about the paid license. were you distributing mysql-based software binaries to your customer or not?

what exactly about the license is unclear or put you at risk?

they hired him promising him one thing, then reneging.
of course, it's simply par for the course for microsoft. speaks volumes about their lack of ethics.

What the heck do you consider a "superior product"?
Anything that's the fad of the moment. You get your badge of leetness by bashing mysql.
the only punishment that historically seems to have any impact on corporate behavior is to send corporate executives to prison. anything else has no effect, it's just "the price of doing business".
Yeah, because all the world is a nail and postgresql is the hammer.
It's always easier when you view the entire universe in black and white.

first mitnick could launch nuclear missiles by whistling into a phone.
now he single handedly brought down dec's alpha? that's a new one to me. rather good, but a new one.
maybe people should just wake up and realize the alpha was a crap cpu -- way overpriced for the performance it (didn't) deliver.
