It's pretty short, it could be improved with benchmarks or at least some examples of how that would be implemented efficiently. Maybe a bit of pros and cons, cursor pagination for example doesn't handle "go directly to page 200" very well. I've also seen some interesting hacks to make offset pagination surprisingly fast with a clever subquery.
I wouldn't call it lame though.
I mean, for what it's worth, you calling it "pretty short" is what made me go read the article, because quite frankly, my attention span isn't long enough to read through an average-length article for a topic like this.
Now we're judging articles for quantity instead of quality?
