Leaving MySQL
Today was my last day at Oracle, and thus also in the MySQL team. When a decision comes to switch workplaces, there’s always the question of “why”, but that question always has multiple answers, and perhaps the simplest one is that I found another opportunity, and and as a whole, it was obvious it was time to move on when that arrived. But it doesn’t really explain why I did go looking for that somewhere else in the first place.
