Is it possible for the benchmark providers to use "Database O" instead of the Oracle name?

Second question: if Oracle bans showing its product(s) in benchmarks does this mean that it is slow?

No necessarily. It's really easy to do bad benchmarking in good faith, especially for a serious database. Now imagine Company I doing benchmarks of Databases O and D, and they subtly cripple O, perhaps by failing to change one or two defaults....

The people with ADHD have the so called "hyperfocus". It's like the flow, but you cannot stay in it if there are distractions. Pills help to ignore those distractions. You are more resourceful by training (from your condition), pills just enable you to show it.


The real issue with hyperfocus is not so much being distracted out of it as not being able to target it. Sure, you can sometimes focus on something for 6 hours, but if it is the wrong thing, then you can blow through deadlines like nobodies business.

When I started on ADHD medications, the biggest thing I noticed was that I would worry more, and then actually adjust my focus to those problems.


Wow I've never heard of this but I can definitely see it in myself. I'm pretty much useless on days when I forget my medicine, but usually more productive than others then I do take it.


I've been there (legally). You have to be motivated by your goal. And be prepared for a few bad days when the pills end. And you will miss this extra power you've tasted.

Its a slippery slope. Please plan very well.
