I'm sure they are a problem child, but can Oracle really afford to lose more big customers? I feel like they are pretty universally reviled, but I am inside the HN bubble. They have done nothing to woo developers and everything to exploit IT management and public budgets AFAIK.

  Believe me, the corporate world that actually used Oracle database software (unlike the open-source friendly web company employees over represented in HN) hates Oracle even more with a passion, having actually experienced their racketeering license practices first hand. Oracle and IBM are engaged in a race for irrelevance.
