Agreed. Also, this looks way more like a case where the author mis-structured his data for his intended use case, and is blaming the tool instead of the skill level used to implement it. Nesting deeper than one level in a document is rarely going to result in sufficient query capability with respect to the nested items. Even MySQL can't nest rows inside other rows, which is what he seems to have wanted. Maybe he chose MongoDB because he wasn't ready to think around the architecting issues that an SQL-based database would require, which happen to be, although not immediately obvious, similar to those in Mongo.

    Seriously, dude? It's attitudes like that which makes women hesitant to become coders and computer engineers. It doesn't matter what's between a person's legs; just that a person can code, enjoys doing it, and knows what they're talking about.

      For years men were dominant in computer science and engineering and I really see no reason why this should change. Only in recent time with this whole third wave of post-feminism certain groups of females think it is their task to overthrow men supremacy in said fields. They are way too emotional for this profession and this results in drama and absolute shit code in production. I am not saying the author of the article submitted has fallen victim to described wrong doings, I am only saying that at all cost unknown teritorry should be approached with extreme care. You don't know what is subliminally hidden until you realize. Too late.

        Oh my god, I did not need to know that existed. I need brain bleach now.

        This attitude is both hateful and harmful to our profession. It is not ok and I wish more of our peers would step up to tell you that this is not acceptable. You are also making wildly inaccurate statements to justify your abuse and I hate to think that other readers might accept them uncritically. We have been actively pushing women out of computer science for the past 30 years (and doing a fine job or excluding and ignoring the contributions of other minority groups in the process). Suggesting that men "were" dominant and misrepresenting the direction of this change in willful ignorance of history at best. I know relying to trolls is not particularly effective and other users have called this out for being hateful but I don't want to see us accept either the premises or the tone presented here.

        Get out of my profession, you repugnant sexist asshole. This kind of rhetoric is not acceptable.

        > They are way too emotional for this profession and this results in drama and absolute shit code in production. So that is where all of the shit code in production (which is the majority) comes from? it's really insidious, because the commits are made using male names. This must have been going on far longer than i imagined, because I've dealt with really old legacy code that is shit. Since, you made a provable statement, I'm sure we will soon see a tremendous number of papers documenting this coming gynepacalapse of bad code.

      Cut the guy some slack, he obviously hates women because his mother named him "Pear Juice". Either that, or he's yet another insecure man-child hiding behind a pseudonym.

    I don't understand why your comment is being buried. It's absolutely idiotic and backwards in substance, sure, but sweeping it under the rug doesn't help anyone.

    Fuck you. ...Was that emotional enough? Or not emotional enough? It's so hard to tell.
