There's a lot of negativity here, so I just wanted to comment that I think the approach Tailscale is taking with sqlite is pretty neat. MySQL and Postgres are both pretty complicated, so gluing together two simpler systems, sqlite and litestream, sounds appealing, and I'm interested to hear how it turns out in the long run.
- tptacek 5y agoThreads on HN are very sensitive to initial conditions. A very negative (and I think pretty facile) comment took an early lead here, most likely because of its snark/dunk value. Give the thread time, it'll even out.

- bestinterest 5y agoAgreed, it's a bit of a shame for HN imo. I see a team who is being brilliant and understanding their domain down to the core with as minimal resources as they can get away with. There is incredible value in incrementally adding complexity only when needed.
