I saw what you posted before: "You are mad". Before you press the send button you should make sure to follow (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html) or your comment can be submitted for moderation. Leave the emotions out if you want to discuss, thanks. I can personally attack you too, but not interested and not worth the time.

As I commented below. Unsubstantiated generalizations are what I distrust. From your comment here, you say "horror stories" where is the substantiation? Notice how my comment said specifically" If I need the speed", "database interpretation" of values. The use of caching for exploded unindexed values. Not sure what it is exactly you don't like other than binary data (512-64kb) in database that is protected by cache. There is literally no change over existing patterns of how to store data in a db other than telling the db not to interpret the values. Are you smearing the idea of lookaside caching in front of a DB (SQL none the less)? Plenty of companies use it.

I prefer to use SQL data types unless I need the speed. What's so unreasonable? I never said that I use it everywhere like you purport it.
