The problem here are the emotive terms used by Amadeu, which franky are more damaging than helpful.
Still it may be turned into nice tactical move: 1. Draw public attention by using such "emotive terms" and following lawsuit threats. 2. Make a public apology in which state something like: "There is definitely no drug dealers techniques in MSFT sales methods, because real techniques used by MSFT is [insert here scientifically correct terms to properly describe techniques used by MSFT to maximize profit]". 3. ??? 4. Profit!!!
They already have got their reusable spacecraft - Buran. And it's rusting in a junkyard because they did not have no money no will to use it.
Because its not wise to send crew and cargo in one spacecraft. Different safety requirements, not to say about economic side of question.
To pull something on orbit at 5G and to pull it at, say, 9G is very different. Second is more cost-effective, especially then there is no need for safety required for manned missions.
As far as I understand, Buran was made to tell to world: "Look, we able to do it too! Just like and slightly better as Americans!". Pretty stupid move.
And yes, Buran indeed was better than Shuttles concerning crew safety. But not so good to be practically useful.
We believe that makes Oracle benchmarks very biased because the above benchmarks are supposed to show what a standard installation can do for a single client.
Of course they are very biased. Since it rather hard to find any real-life application of RDBMS serving "sigle client".
/sarcasm mode on
And we all know how good MySQL at serving multiple clients with complex queries at once. /sarcasm mode off
Neat quote tho, at least when you understand who is really biased:)
