MySQL brings to the table an impressive AI interface that knows what you really meant to do and thus does away with those pesky error messages.

LOL, this is the single greatest reason I stopped using mysql for my own stuff. I like the user management aspect better, in that each user only sees their own databases, but that's a small annoyance (a little psql -l | grep user largely solves that) Whoever decided that silently truncating values and other similar things was a good idea should be shot. Never ever ever ever ever silently do anything that changes data you stupid bitch of a database. Either accept the data as is or reject it and throw an error and make me do the change myself so at least I can control it. ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
