The article contains a link with the rather curious title "10 things that Richard Branson hates about PostgreSQL".... Turns out the guy who wrote that blog is called Rick Branson, not Richard.
In fact, I'd argue that many of the most effective ways to mislead people involve sticking rigidly to literal truth, because it makes them so much harder to counter. When there's no literal untruth to correct, it's natural to end up implying bad faith _without having any definitive proof_, and that is mighty unstable ground from which to argue.
However I will not that the author in question refers to himself as "Rick Branson", and the article title is "10 Things I Hate About PostgreSQL". So I think it's just the person who made the link who is being a bit cheeky.
My comment was going off on a wild tangent. :)
Certainly it wouldn't've occurred to me to think it was the businessman rather than a name collision.
But, eh, agreed on tangent, and I'm not intending to criticise either.
Oh, not that one.
