And there we have yet another complete communication failure from last.fm. As if they didn't piss of people enough with their previous announcement, they sure as hell didn't pay attention to the feedback they got there and walked right into

It is a decent database It's approaching the same feature-set as Microsoft SQL Server had over a decade ago, but still severely lacking in optimizations and performance for anything besides basic queries. If you were to install an OS toda

For example, I would had a stored procedure for validating the data. Or I would have made the smartest decision of using Postgres and live happily there after. How does using a decent DB remove the usefulness of stored procedures?

there's also a whole variety of possible arguments for why someone should get on Twitter, and so far I haven't figured out any clear, universal argument. I think that's your answer. If you can't make a proper, solid argument for what the

But you shouldn't be using a normal database for this type of query anyways - it's SLOW, because you're doing a range search Please explain to me why databases is a bad choice for data which you wish to retrieve in ranges. If you've clust

It says only premium accounts can request developer keys. So if you're not in a supported country, I guess getting those dev keys will be hard ;) Guess it's finally time for you US guys to feel left out :P

Oddly enough, if the tables were turned and it was Microsoft in a difficult position, we couldn't say the same things about .NET. As a .NET-developer I have to say this is true and for a reason. Java has had much more time in the market,

Relational databases are notorious for being exceedingly difficult to scale beyond a dataset which fits on one server. Factually incorrect. This may apply to MySQL, but that doesn't translate to the rest of the RDBMS-world. I wonder if I
