April fools prank by MongoDB developers: Create short field names

Really, are trolling posts front-page worthy now? This is from February 2013.

Simple fact, storing less data takes up less space! Sadly, this means that in MongoDB the field names for each document count towards that disk and memory usage.

Additionally, there are a few tickets discussing this issue:

https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-863

https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-164

I love how I can't take any post from any tech company serious today. Not like I'd want to actually do any real work today.

MongoDB, ahead of the curve since 2007.
