github's outages have made my life difficult. planetscale's pricing scheme has also burned me. i am not just attacking this guy at random.
based on upvote points i can conclude many people do think i am contributing positively to this discussion. please refrain from tone-policing me. i don't see any technical comments from you in this discussion whatsoever so how exactly are your comments positively contributing?
the person who for many years was directly responsible for github's databases, and later their overall infrastructure, recently made a horrendously inaccurate statement about the industry's most popular managed database offering
this shows either a severe lack of technical understanding, or a willingness to make deliberate technical misstatements
now github is down literally every single day due to database problems. it is very relevant! accountability is important!
I think your response in that thread was sufficient. If you feel it was insufficient, that thread would be the correct place to continue the discussion or further clarify any misinformation where people may actually it.
People rarely admit when they are wrong and you don't have a right to (or even a reasonble expectation of) any such admission in this context. Harassing them about it in other threads is not a positive contribution to the discussion or the community.
