I haven't used SQLite in production, but I've used a single installation of Postgres for some surprisingly high traffic websites, and it works amazingly well with essentially no tweaking. I agree that the vast majority of people using anything more complex very likely don't need to be.

You're right, I forgot about that connection.

My understanding is that herpes (both HSV1 and HSV2) are not actually bad but have enormous social stigma, which is the main problem. I wonder what can be done to address that, as an alternative strategy.

I just started reading 'Skin in the Game' by Nassim Taleb. These kind of overpriced consulting contracts, where nobody in particular bears the downside risk of incompetence, fit into his framework well. Hiring Deloitte et al usually amounts to outsourcing responsibility, except the people who do the work also bear little or no long-term responsibility if things go bad. A 3-person startup, on the other hand, suffers from severe downside (at least in a business sense) if they mess something like this up.
