You're the troll. Jim Grey wrote the book on transaction processing. If there is anyone qualified to judge the capabilities of a DB system it is him. Or someone who didn't understand the difference between many thousands of developers working on Linux and the smaller number that work on MySQL. WTF??? His comments show a clear understanding of how many developers are working on MySQL ("Twenty-five people can do a pretty full-blown system, and ship it, and support it, and get manuals written, and test it. The Postgress and MySQL teams are on that scale and likely represent the leading open-source DBMSes out there."). It's like you saw the word "Microsoft" and automatically assumed everything following would be Market-speak.
Can anyone recommend a toolkit that will let me write a web application in C or C++? I'm talking about an API that will automate generation of interactive web pages with drop-boxes etc. that can be used by a database application.
Everyone seems to be using PERL or Java to do this now, but I don't know those languages. I do know C/C++ pretty well, though.
Is there anything for Linux or Windows that will let me prototype C/C++ web applications quickly?
PS: I am looking for answers other than "Just learn PERL or Java"
In nutshell, this comment shows perfectly why Linux will never succeed in the mass market. It is built by developers...for developers. The end users are irrelevant.
This page provides an overview of some typical Japanese TV shows:
* A game show in which a grandmother has to answer questions about pop culture in order to prevent her grandson from being catapulted into the air by a bungee machine.
* "Guess what's on your head!"- a game show in which contestants try to guess what type of insect or reptile is crawling around on the top of their heads.
* A show called Super Jockey in which people with products to promote (usually beautiful women) play a game where they have to change into a skimpy bikini before a curtain drops which will reveal them if they haven't finished changing, and then they have to sit in scalding hot water. For every second they manage to stay in the water, they are allowed to promote their product for one second

What are they going to take over or something?
Would it make you feel any better if the ATM were dropped into console mode displaying the message "Segmentation fault - core dumped"?

You just need the right business model, I guess!
