What is Digg?46 Comments
- manacit2, on 08/16/2008, -5/+37What's wrong with phpmyadmin? or HeidiSQL? or MySQL Query Browser? This seems like overkill [LOL AJAX!!!!] just so you can edit a few tables...
- twodimman, on 08/16/2008, -1/+17imho, I don't really see how this would be usable in real life.
- phocis850, on 08/16/2008, -1/+10Not everyone has a Mac.

First of all, grammar, young man, if you don't look like a total retard, people won't treat you like a retard....as I am about to do (everyone skip the next part, it will hurt you if you read it!):
just cos ur computor dumb, cos ur of top5 digged storys in profil, dusent meen might evry1 is.....sum peeps mite like dis kinda stuf.... - cgruber, on 08/16/2008, -0/+6Don't enable remote access on mysql. Install SSH and tunnel it over that, you get the same benefits without directly exposing your database server to potential attacks.
- nwoolls, on 08/16/2008, -3/+9With the scaffolding provided by technologies like Ruby on Rails and ASP.NET Dynamic Data, why use something like this that ties the implementation directly to the storage?
- minorgods, on 08/16/2008, -1/+6I love how the wonderfully sophisticated ajax labrary doesn't cache forward and backward. they list "Only displayed data is sent!" like it's some kind of feature... :/
- forevernomad, on 08/16/2008, -0/+3That doesn't work on Saturdays.
- lamiaconfitor, on 08/16/2008, -0/+3Did I miss something, is it fashionable to hate on Oracle?
- FlaG8r, on 08/16/2008, -0/+3"and exactly y is this on the first page first story?"
Obama must use it. - infiniphunk, on 08/16/2008, -0/+3now we're going to keep you at (or close to) zero diggs
- akkuma, on 08/16/2008, -1/+4ExtJS isn't really an option for a lot of people now due to going under a GPLv3. In fact, the CTO where I work phrased it as being a bait and switch on developers. Get them hooked to the goodness of ExtJS, which I feel is a fantastic library in many ways, and then either leave them screwed with the inability to continue updating ExtJS or force them to now buy a commercial license. At this point a company has to ask itself, are the benefits of ExtJS really worth buying a license for over using something like jQuery?
- inactive, on 08/16/2008, -0/+2No. It used to be useful.
- YeaBuddy, on 08/16/2008, -1/+3you know, when digg first came about every story was similar to this.
much better imo than all the crap today(even though i would never use something like this, google rails active scaffold ftw). - godsdead, on 08/16/2008, -0/+2phpmyadmin FTW
- MtheoryX, on 08/16/2008, -1/+3You're a digg n00b, so I'll go easy on you here...
THIS STORY is exactly what Digg USED to be in the beginning. - OpCzar, on 08/16/2008, -0/+2I wonder why not more of these ajax showcases do not show the demo first...
- fx666, on 08/17/2008, -0/+2For the professionals, Oracle is the best; but the amateurs still believe in Bill Gates.
- angelleye, on 08/17/2008, -0/+2It seems to me that everybody is looking at this as an admin tool for MySQL for you as the developer. It actually looks like a pretty nice little table that a client you develop a site for would be able to work with a lot easier than phpMyAdmin or any of the other methods that have been mentioned here.
Drop one of these into their administration section of their site and they're ready to rock. Then you don't have to waste any time building an admin for them. - ithkuil, on 08/17/2008, -0/+2Its probably not such a great deal for former contributors that are cut out of the cash loop now that they are GPL but for me if you compare the appearance of the UI and feature completeness of ExtJS to any of the really free libraries, a single $300 developer license fee is a deal.
At some point a company has to ask, do _all_ of my software development tools _really_ have to be free or stolen? - lamiaconfitor, on 08/16/2008, -1/+3Thats what she said.
- Atomic1fire, on 08/17/2008, -0/+2I thought it used to be about cool (web2.0) websites, software, some programing stuff, and gadgets
- inactive, on 08/16/2008, -2/+4phpmyadmin is terribly, TERRIBLE insecure and has had dozens of exploits very publicly and widely known for it
- mohtasham, on 08/18/2008, -0/+1ASP.NET?!!! Does anybody use that?
- junkwheel, on 08/16/2008, -2/+3but y first page FIRST STORY.
u missed first story part, you dnoob
also, u cant hurt me, i hatve a keyboard cover - foltaggio, on 08/16/2008, -0/+1reverse psychology, eh?
- ide3308, on 08/16/2008, -3/+4what if you want your clients to be able to update records dealing with what they are doing? I have built an application with php, XML and mySQL that does just that, but it requires separate pages for insertion, browsing and editing. This is pretty cool.
- Persnickety, on 08/16/2008, -0/+1The difference seems to be that you could offer a subset of your tables as viewable/editable to your _users_
- Feldon, on 08/16/2008, -0/+1Kind of reminds me of http://www.itwire.com/content/view/19971/1090/
- disrupter, on 08/16/2008, -2/+3I'll stick with Ext JS thanks
- igor8755, on 08/16/2008, -0/+0Feldon thanks.
- mohtasham, on 08/18/2008, -1/+1Thanks, but I rather use terminal :)
- hobophobe, on 08/17/2008, -1/+1Please be more explicit in the future about exactly why the license you reference is unacceptable in your case.
Thanks. - vat0r, on 08/16/2008, -1/+1If you ask me they're all GUI's so there's no difference. There's nothing wrong with variety though and maybe you don't appreciate eye candy but the average user does.
- imtiazmt, on 08/16/2008, -2/+2retard grammar for a retard article. drasticgrid is not exactly drastic. whats there to digg about displaying data on a web page with all sorting, editing etc functionality? asp.net did this long ago. oh wait this is something to do with linux, hence should be dugg. is that the logic applied?
- sensibledriver, on 08/16/2008, -1/+1What is wrong with command line? Kids today...sheesh!
- imtiazmt, on 08/16/2008, -1/+1you mean digg used to be a linux promoter site?
- inactive, on 08/16/2008, -1/+0I still prefer PhpMyAdmin. DrasticGrid has some interesting features (Ajax) but it's really slow and full of bugs
- fLUx1337, on 08/16/2008, -3/+1Enabling remote access, and granting permissions to another PC + CocoaMySQL blows this out of the water. PHPMyAdmin is OK too but I would prefer CocoaMySQL any day of the week....
- pyronik, on 08/16/2008, -3/+1This will work well i think on the site im working on
- darkcss, on 08/16/2008, -5/+3clients are expecting this type of interactivity. and if they aren't right now, they will be very soon. laugh out loud at ajax, but technology moves quick as ***** and you gotta keep up. i'm sure a decade or two ago someone said, [LOL CDROMS!!!].
- British0zzy, on 08/16/2008, -11/+8digg me down
- sreejithnk, on 08/16/2008, -5/+0http://www.onrip.com
- imtiazmt, on 08/16/2008, -10/+5and exactly y is this on the first page first story?
- fx666, on 08/16/2008, -7/+1I prefer Oracle SQL because it is much better designed and has more features.
