I would tend to draw the line at making webservice calls.. that almost never works well from the database. I say almost 'cause I'm guilty of doing it from a service broker queue. I'm not proud of it, however.
Well they asked for "bad ideas that work" - it's bad for all the reasons we know but it sure does work, except for when it doesn't. If you are already locked in to a SQL Server or something then taking advantage of its modern features and tooling can be a real productivity boost over say writing lots and lots of plumbing code just to avoid having your "business logic in the database".
I've been using 64bit nightly since the idea of dropping the builds was mentioned in bz. There was a big debate and a bunch of tech news sites picked up the story and now the latest is that they're being "restored". But the 64bit nightly builds never stopped! I'm sure this story is just to get everyone to STFU about it already.
Actors are pretty good at delivering convincing dialogue but there are a million subtle things that we sense subconsciously in every little movement. This information is mostly missing in 24fps so our minds fill it in with something appropriate - basically our subconscious gives the actors the benefit of the doubt and we see convincing movements. But when their actual movements are accurately captured and played back for us our subconscious sees every subtle thing and it ruins the effect. We can sense that they're just acting and it feels like they're just reading lines.
That's my theory I just made up but it doesn't explain why we get the same feeling when TV's add interpolated frames to double the frame rate.
This is such a good idea. Even beyond vcs I would want to only ever persist syntax trees and have all formatting based on rules and exceptions stashed in my home directory.
Modern IDEs make it so easy to convert from one style to another I wish they would just make it a display option. Then each developer could read and write in the style they prefer.
Okay let's learn: Windows is a Microkernel and Linux is a Monolithic kernel - fundamentally different approaches to OS architecture. Which one do you think has less code in the kernel and therefor less chance of bugs and vulnerabilities?
The thing I like about firefox is that you can completely rearrange the interface. For me every version has looked the same.. I don't really care what they do with the default settings.
Ceglia invested $1,000 in 2003 and is now expecting a 25,000,000% return on his investment. Get in line, Ceg even expecting your $1,000 back would be unreasonable.
You'll want to check out the clustering systems, anything stating to provide write-scaling is probably multi-master. PG-XC describes itself as a "write-scalable synchronous multi-master postgresql cluster". Interestingly 'synchronous' implies that this system scales out without sacrificing consistency. I haven't used it so I can't say for sure. My experience is with commercial RDBMSs and the eventual consistency model.
Data & Reality looks like an interesting read for sure, I will add it to my queue thanks!
If you've modeled your information well and not let specifics of your application creep in then changes in your application need not be a problem at all. Even if you do need to refactor your information any modern RDBMS has great tools to help. I really do wonder what people with very large object stores are doing when their objects change.

Or rather forget about what's business logic and what's not - if it can be done in the database, do it there.
that company is seamicro btw

Konrad Zuse designed and built the first mechanical computer in 1941. It's his own design using binary.

Cygwin and Msys are basically pointless. Windows already has a native UNIX subsystem with a strong user community and a couple flavors of Linux. There's even a reverse WINE for binaries that can't be compiled for Interix.
for most Architects of Software Systems that I've met the acronym is totally apt!

can they provide the RNG and seed value that produces the poem? thought not

My workstation is a TYAN server board. It takes about 5 minutes to boot. Most of that is waiting for the RAID controllers.

PostgreSQL supports all manner of replication, I imagine it's not as easy as something called "easy replication" but would count on it being more flexible. Or use one of the many clustering systems to trade some flexibility for ease of use.
