Agreed. I prefer Postgres for personal projects, but MySQL is a fine database. Honestly, even a relational DB I wouldn't want to use again (DB2...) is still pretty solid to me. The relational model is pretty damn neat and SQL is a pretty solid query language.
I wonder how many people disagree with that last part in particular...
- mmaunder 5y agoIt’s actually the core of all dev that involves any data storage, today. HN is both aspirational in tech and has a younger demographic so you won’t get any points here for mentioning anything SQL. Hence the downvotes I’m getting. But hey, it’s all good!!
