"It seems instead of XML databases, we're seeing JSON databases."
Even that one grain of truth doesn't hold up if you read his original prediction. He was talking about pretty XML-specific stuff like XPath and XQuery, and even things like DTDs and Schemas; so schema-less document stores just don't fit Yegge's story.
I don't have anything against Yegge for making such a prediction, and I'm sure he's not all that concerned that he was wrong. However, I don't think the author is being intellectually honest when he tries to twist it into a "partially right", and I do have something against that.
