While databases are powerful, to think that they are a necessary component for all types of work is a rather limited point of view. I have to say that less than 10% of my programming work involves or interacts with databases of any significant kind.
Perhaps your experience, despite your claims, is insufficiently broad to recognise other possibilities.
- zbruhnke 16y agoAgain I did not say "All things tie into databases" I simply said I tie most things back into databases because thats how my mind works. I sold a company which wrote sharepoint plugins ... there were no database functions needed there, rather it was giving a database more functionality. I recognize many things do not rely on databases in a significant way and perhaps my experience is not sufficiently broad, however I certainly am capable of recognizing other possibilities
- RiderOfGiraffes 16y agoOK, I guess I just don't understand you. Let's take a simple example - programming a toaster. How do you tie that back into a database?
