Same thing. I was a software dev, then I went to the back end with MongoDB and NodeJS, and I learnt what ACID means... Also about MySQL, many people forget it isn't ACID compliant either and just look at benchmarks or use MySQL "because Facebook uses it". I am sure that if any startup would use PostgreSQL it would avoid many problems on the road.

I think that PostgreSQL is, in almost every aspect, a superior product to MySQL. But MySQL not being ACID compliant is flat out wrong (assuming that you're using InnoDB)

  Yes with InnoDB it is.
