Oracle is mentioned at the start, where he proclaims the "dominance" of Postgres and then admits its newest features have been in Oracle for nearly a quarter of a century already. The dominance he's talking about is only about how many startups raise how many millions from investors, not anything technical.

And then of course at the end he has a whole section about Larry Ellison, like always.
