Why MySQL Isn’t My Favorite RDBMS — Reason #767

My name is Peter Williams. I am a father and software developer. (I do other things, of course, but those are the things I am most passionate about.) This blog is primarily a place where I can rant without scaring too many people, but occasionally I record things of interest to my family here.
