MySql is also owned by Oracle! 
I'm actually surprised that it still exists and is free and open source. I would have thought that Oracle would have either retired it or made it a paid product by now. 
And seriously, after having worked with MySql: It's crap too! I would never, ever use it myself in a production system. It's a Mickey Mouse database system that is good for nothing but small homemade websites with minimal database requirements!

I agree , for me I have a lot of time for Postgres - bit of a learning curve if you're from MS background but worth the effort.

My company uses a lot of Oracle.
Luckily I'm in the SQL Server team.
Just this week a coworker from another team said to me "SQL Server is not a real database."
I replied "For a not-database it has awesome tooling compared to the much more expensive Oracle."
His mouth disagreed, but I'm pretty sure his heart knew I was right

Yes! that! 
I rather work with "Not a database" which is awesome than a so called "real database" that can only be used remotely close to 10% efficiency by "real DBA"

My business partner asked me earlier this week about a code generator tool that would allow her (mostly a non-programmer) to build prototype/poc web applications using a click-and-drag type of interface. I immediately responded with 'ironspeed' remembering that for a long time they were a sponsor here. Little did I know that they are now defunct due to a lawsuit.  To my credit, September of last year, when this made news, was a rough time work-wise, so I wouldn't have been reading too much news! Oh, the irony!  (Sorry, not funny...)
Anyway, she found an alternative (not free but not unreasonable either) with asprunner.net.
I haven't heard of them before now and apparently, she will be using it to start work on a project we discussed last week which I dismissed as not being feasible given the development resources available (me)...So, it seems she is replacing one code generating tool for another! One that doesn't talk back.
So, joking aside, has anybody here seen this product (asprunner.net) or the generated output thereof? If so, I hope it allows tweaking as I am sure to become responsible for it in the future. 
Who knows? It could be a good thing...
Edit: I've just noticed that this post was marked as abusive/spam and got dinged for it. If someone could tell me what statement here is abusive, I'd sure like to know. For the individual(s) who complained, fuadiaf...

See, this is why you, as a human code generator, cannot be replaced by a robotic code generator.
Never used asprunner.net, but their website doesn't same anything about support on mobile devices (that I noticed.)

ITYM before not selling whackos guns.
Kinda defeats the objective, otherwise.

Not that I disagree with you, but what is the purpose of the waiting period?
And isn't that automatic in any case, if you do the background check properly?

The background check system can be exploited by the government. One day, they may/can decide to reject ALL gun purchase applications with no obligation to state a reason.
