Well the point of this article is obviously in relation to PHP. Yes,
Rasmus Lerdorf himself uses MySQL and I'm sure Jan would say he's a
"wannabee", not a "real developer".

Yes I'm sure that PHP was designed to make Postgres look bad. All
benchmarks are designed to make postgres look bad. All web designers
build everything in just that special way that makes postgres look bad,
and they all do it because they're inept and stupid, unlike the small
crowd of postgres users.
