- Klonoar 9y ago...Mongo isn't run by a bunch of morons, contrary to the Hacker News and /r/programming hate circlejerk boner for them. The level of vitriol on these communities about anything new is really getting old.
- kevin_thibedeau 9y agoLibBSON somewhat humorously has no error handling for OOM and just kills the whole process if a malloc fails. Bit of an annoyance when porting to embedded hardware.
- Klathmon 9y agoCome on can we keep this kind of stuff off HN? If you have concrete criticisms say them so we can have a discussion, don't write snarky lines like this is some kind of "us vs them" game.

- gaius 9y agoIn an earlier comment yesterday I remarked that it was good to avoid platform wars, but the MongoDB crew squandered the right to converse as peers with all the lies they told. Remember when they compared their speed writing to memory with Postgres speed writing to disk, as if this made them faster? Either they have fundamentally misunderstood what a database is, or they have deliberately acted in bad faith, which is it?
