I never claimed it was the most efficient implementation

Obviously you degree was from Devry institute of technology cus ***** u dum

Trips to the database are extremely fast, the bottlenecks are in the queries which is why they pay people the big bucks to optimize them. In the converted relational algebra to get a random saying, all you have is a single projection operation which is probably passed into a mersenne twister (or whatever random generator mysql uses), no sigmas, intersections, unions, cartesian products, or tuple joins; which is where inefficiency comes into play (even moreso with myisam). Pretty much all you're waiting for is the rotational delay of the hard drive and a single block transfer time. If we were really worried about database workload I imagine the project would have switched to something more robust like postgresql ages ago.

Has nothing to do with discussion. Copied from textbook.

Theme song for programming discussion in this thread, Naez is the midget and Rogean is the cop:

Ya he's a recent grad that still hasn't found a jOb trying to talk textbook vs experience

[GODPARTICLE]

Has everything to do with the discussion. You're making it out like a single read, with a single projection operation, happening in literally the measurement of a nanosecond, is the end of the world.

Also my degree is from UCI, and I have a job making assloads of money for what amounts to reddit all day, all while finishing coursework for my master's to pursue a phd

[reddi lol]

All I need to know about you to make assumptions about every pos you make:

Plays eq live
Pastes IRC chat into forum

Confirmed idiot

[GODPARTICLE]

trolls* eqlive

whats your hiccup on irc anyway you always bring it up lol?

I'm a software engineer not a programmer. I try to read minds, write design specs, and ship it to India

They are the same thing. That's like saying The Cloud (Which I hate that term) isn't the Internet. At one point it wasn't but now all the dumbasses call the Internet THE CLOUUUDDDD OOOHHHH (Cue Toy Story Alien thingamabobbers)
