I have a friend that ask me why postgresql is better than mysql.
I personally prefer posgresql, but she need to give in her work 3 or 4
strong reasons for that. I mean not to much technical reasons. Can you
give help me please ?
How about the fact that MySQL accepts the following query as legal:
SELECT foo, bar, COUNT(*)
FROM baz
GROUP BY foo
And produces, naturally, an unexpected result instead of an error. Totally annoying, I don't know if it was ever fixed. It seems that MySQL's parser is generally weak at syntax validation in it's default configuration.
