On: With $42M more, 10gen wants to take MongoDB mainst...

[zzzeek]

Now is the time to buy stock in mug manufacturers, seeing as I'm already awash in MongoDB mugs everywhere think how many more $42M can buy....

[igorgue → zzzeek]

But the important question here is: How big is the mug market? Every developer, I know, has a MongoDB mug already. This makes me question, how their mug strategy is going to be with this new investment?

I ended up sharding my mug :(

Despite their claims, MongoDbMug is clearly not web scale.

Cut a hole in the bottom. You can put tons of stuff in there now! ;)

note: be sure to hold it over the sink while 'filling'

[reitzensteinm → stock_toaster]

Ah, the pipe to /dev/null solution. Now that is web scale.

get another mug, make another cup of coffee. even in "mug mode", it's a good idea to have a hot standby.

I have a shelf dedicated to my MongoDB mugs, and there's still some room for them to grow.

I found a great use for the mug. https://twitter.com/ryandotsmith/status/98445779173244928
