error 500. maybe its unrelated to them not using postgresql.
- zende 16y agohere's the correct link: http://www.quora.com/Why-doesnt-Quora-use-PostgreSQL http://www.quora.com/Why-doesnt-Quora-use-PostgreSQL HN must have stripped out the ' from the link when I submitted it
- zende 16y agogrrrrr. apparently HN always strips single-quotes from links. There should be single-quote in the link in doesn't. Here's a bit.ly link :-( http://bit.ly/9iQWn8 http://bit.ly/9iQWn8
- chacha102 16y agoYou could always URL encode it: http://www.quora.com/Why-doesn%27t-Quora-use-PostgreSQL http://www.quora.com/Why-doesn%27t-Quora-use-PostgreSQL That way everyone clicking on the link from the home page doesn't get taken to the 500 page.
- 146 16y agoArgh, that is really annoying though, and our servers really should be able to figure out that the two links, apostrophe or not, should lead to the same question. I'm a bit late to the game; was the original link up top unchanged? Edit: should be fixed now.
