Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: RE: MetaSlop - Yet More Bleating and Moaning
The
more I think about this, the more it rankles and amuses me....I mean,
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>lookit.....not that this announcement of theirs was to "the list" per se,
but
this
list <FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>is not an entirely unrepresentative mixture of Oracle DBAs out
there...
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>
And
so, if you took someone who really new internals like Adams or Lewis or
Gaja
and
someone who understood "big" databases like Ian at Stanford and all the
other
high
quality folks here on the list, doncha think *that* team could turn
MetaStink
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>around? You bet it could. Without all the bullshit and "million
dollar" offers and posturing
in
Armani suits. And I am supposed to truly believe that "<FONT
face="Times New Roman" color=#000000>Our Global IT team are working
these
performance issues as their number one priority."
? Oh yea, right. Pass the crack pipe,
I want some more <SPAN
class=974212420-27022001>time to think
about that one.
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Instead, we get month after month of sh*tty content, erratic service, and
the spice
in the
gash is these ridiculous little "marketing messages" written by 21 year
olds
out in
Redwood Shores.
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Amazing. And I *like* oracle. I can imagine what this is doing to the
businesses out
there
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>"on the edge" of product acceptance.
<FONT
face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>
Oracle
9i, of course, will fix all this.

RE: MetaSlop
I
think they would have given some more information but then they would have to
admit that it is actually a microsoft Sql server runnin on a macintosh.
Their duhvelopers really liked the graphics that a mac provided and the ease
of use microsoft provided. So now they are going to upgrade it to 16
MEGS of powerhouse RAM. Oh that bad boy will fly, I mean, they're
Oracle, they can't give away all of their secrets.

You know, for an announcement to a bunch <FONT
size=2>of serious hardcore tech people, it was sure
SHORT ON DETAILS.
"front end web servers"...
"additional hardware...."
uh huh sure <FONT
size=2>fine whatever.....
The courtesy of a message with some real meat would be
nice, instead of this McDonalds' Advisory "The
fry-o-lators are being fixed and should be ready
soon now. Please try our new apple pies!"
