A fulcrum to bench Mars
-
Do you have benchmarks comparing APDB to other popular databases in your catagory (Mongo and such) and others like Sqlite, Postgre, Mysql, etc ?
thanks

Oh wait, I got it:
Not sure who to flag for whoosh, myself or that guy...
-
Alex Papadimoulis DB?
Only available with the purchase of a full Buildmaster license?
-
You need a pretty big bench for Mars.
-
Yep read that. Seems that if you claim to be the fastest, you'd include benchmarks to prove it ?/ Just a thought :)
-
Not sure who to flag for whoosh, myself or that guy...
-
Nah, you can use a normal bench. You just need a big enough gym and lots of upper body strength.
-
So you are saying that it is essentially not the fastest, just purchase it on my word ?

Just purchase it and install it in production. Please make sure to burn all your backups as you won't be needing them anymore. After all, with direct dial access the chances of your data getting corrupted are nonexistent.

Now, now, let's not be so hasty. I think with some clever hacking you can point APDB at a RAID array, though - preferably a RAID 0 for zero chance of failure - so with that you can certainly not worry about losing your data.

I'm not sure why you replied to me. I didn't flag it. Somebody flagged it while I was spellaring.
-
Cause you implied you did it.
-
you implied
Huh? I poked fun at the spelling of the topic name (with a screencap because editing is a thing around here), and I poked fun at possible sounds of rushing air. I said nothing about flags (except, perhaps, a vague implication of whooshing flags, but no flags that would hide the OP).
-
Somebody flagged it
Actually, they didn't. At least not for hiding that we can see. (We got a flag asking for it to be unhidden but that was 'after' whatever it was that hid it.)
-
I initially flagged it, then when I realised that was in error, undid the flag.
I assumed it stayed hidden because other people had flagged it, but seems not.

You can't argue with results.

Everyone posting pictures of planes.

Ok, ok, I'll give it a go, sheesh...
Ok, looks simple enough...
Damn it!

That's NOT A MiG-29 FULCRUM!

Oh, MIGs? I can do MIGs!
Yes, I know it's the wrong model.

Damn Ruskies!
-
If there are any Russians in that photo, they are probably trying to steal the plane...
No, sorry, can't do it, no one is that desperate to steal our planes.
-
Lieutenant, what were you doing there?
Communicating. Keeping up foreign relations. You know, giving him the bird.
-
I notice nobody has responded to the OP's questions about APDB. That was years before I was involved with TDWTF, and I've never heard of it mentioned since I got involved, so I'm not at all sure whether that was a real thing, or a joke, or what. Since Alex does produce software, but this is TDWTF, I wouldn't be surprised either way.
-

What about this guy?
so I'm not at all sure whether that was a real thing, or a joke, or what
If you actually read the article and still say that, well, consider that it's a "Featured Article," not "Alex's Soapbox" or whatever he calls those out of character posts.
I'd like to call attention to this bit, however:
Sure, these new databases can more-than power today’s applications, but what about the next generation? I’m talking paradigm-shifting applications that are so amazingly innovative that our primitive Web 2.0 brains can’t even imagine them today. It’d be as futile as trying to explain Twitter to someone from 1999.
Some ominous foreshadowing of Discourse if I ever saw any.

The article's date is a pretty big hint.
-
article's date
I totally missed that. I just saw 2010 and didn't look at the rest of the date. Yes, pure joke, then.

I like that scene in Hot Shots! where he does that and all the junk in his cockpit falls onto the glass.
Here's a beautiful aircraft:
Not as flashy perhaps, but a shitload more practical. Also just happens to be the best airliner ever built in history. Simultaneously top of the charts on reliability, affordability, and safety.
The Dreamliner actually looks sleeker, but it's not as proven a performer. Yet. Guaranteed it will be.
-
The only thing I can remember from Hot Shots(part deux) is it is a rip off of Rambo and he punches a guy in the gonads after dipping his hands in an Old Country Buffet dessert line of caramel syrup.
Is the first one worth watching?
-
Meh. It's not like "art" or even a top-class comedy like Airplane! but if you haven't seen it you'll probably laugh. Most of the gags work.
It's a little dated, but not too bad. Unless you're SO young you don't know who Saddam Hussain was. The first movie is a parody of Top Gun, the second is like a mix of Terminator 2 and Rambo III.

I think I detect some local bias.
a shitload more practical
That rather depends on what you're using it for, no? More practical for carrying passengers, yes, but not very effective in air-to-air combat.
-
I think I detect some local bias.
It's unquestionably the safest airliner ever made. The other stuff, meh, might be argued.

Sure it is. It's already been proven 100% effectively at blocking missiles which may have been heading to a more valuable target
(Too soon?)
-
Since the other people aren't being very helpful, I did some quick benchmarks on my install of APDB, as you can see the difference is staggering.

Unless there were misses you don't know about.

What, the Pakistani footballer? I don't remember him being in any of those movies, unless he played "generic raghead #5".
-
"generic raghead #5".
Of all the generic ragheads, he was the one who truly brought an air of gravitas to the role.
