Question: What model are you shifting to, from DeepSeek ? Which is the cheaper model, giving comparable performance to DeepSeek ?
Its surprising that date / time parsing is screwed in multiple languages
I have always preferred (even without thinking) to use configuration files as Yaml and kept Json for interprocess communication
( I don't know who said it, but if forced, I will say Albert Einstein or Mark Twain :-) )
Reminds of that article about Postgres for everything: https://github.com/Olshansk/postgres_for_everything
Finally, an interface that matches our enterprise COBOL codebase, perfect for Y2K-compliant enterprises of 1999 :-)
I don't know how much of that article points are still valid.
The other part in favor of mysql (in my opinion) are that there are lots of companies that use mysql in production - so the access patterns, and its quirks are very well defined Companies like Square, YouTube, Meta, Pinterest, now Uber all use mysql. From blind, Stripe was also thinking of moving all its fleet from Mongo to mysql
Perception wise, it looks like companies needing internet scale data are using mysql
PS: I am also a fan of Postgres, and we are using that for our startup. But I don't know the answer if someone asks me, why not Mysql. Hence asking
