> This person fundamentally does not understand databases.
Oh boy I do love hackernews :).
It sounds like you’ve spent a lot of your career in a SQL world. Have you worked a lot with DDB/MongoDB/Cassandra? If not then give it a whirl with more than a toy application and share your thoughts. Already done that? Try the brand new “constructive criticism” framework.
Instead of “this person fundamentally does not understand databases” based on 13 words in a 1200+ word article, consider: “I disagree with this statement and here’s why”.
You get all of the karma with none of the ad hominem! Win win!
