There was always something suspicious about an anonymous post lacking any verifiable facts. Then, 10gen's CTO states that none of it resonates with any support issues they've had. Then, add this.
I know exactly what it will take for me to believe the pastbin story.
I'm curious, what will it take for you to not believe it?
- rdtsc 15y agoI agree this is a shady post. Even "how" it was posted is shady. So I am not standing 100% behind it. It is just more of a gut instinct. At the same time, it got on the front page because the story resonated and made sense to others. There were quite a few people who commented how "oh yeah I've had problems with lost data". And I think that is what pushed the post's popularity more than the original pastebin. So the discussion got a life of its own after a while. Followed by response posts and response posts to those and so on.
