Sure, but you're paying a price in terms of complexity: Many simple sites with PostgreSQL/MySQL can handle being slashdotted without having a cache (unless you're using a heavy CMS such as WordPress/Drupal). If you use S

I understand your point, but the problem with low-traffic websites is that they often suddenly - without warning - become high-traffic websites for a day or two when some larger website links to them. We've all seen it here on HN: Some

If you're making a web app, IMO you shouldn't use SQLite at all - not even for testing. In a live scenario SQLite has problems with multiple users. And in a test scenario SQLite is too forgiving when it comes to types - which mean

Node [...] now occupies prime real estate as a (if not the ) de facto choice of server-side infrastructure for the modern web stack. With hyperbole like this a lot of people won't bother to read the rest of the article.

SQLAlchemy's documentation makes the ORM seem a bit unapproachable, but Flask-SQLAlchemy does a good job of simplifying things: http://pythonhosted.org/Flask-SQLAlchemy/ . With that documentation I don't think

Denmark has high taxes for the poor and middle class Ironically, there's virtually no place better to be "poor" than in Denmark, because while poor people pay taxes, too, wages (and welfare) are so high that they end up liv

And Denmark is a Microsoft-land as far I know. For startups, no. There's as large an open source scene here as anywhere else. Ruby on Rails was started by a Dane (David Heinemeier Hansson), as was PHP, C++, and the V8 JavaScript engi
