Same here. Stopped reading.

I feel ya. I'm always middle clicking twice, story and comments. This shouldn't be a script (no offense, great job!). It should be built into the browsers!

AGPL and copyleft licenses are not restrictive , they provide forward (open source) guarantees . The only thing they "restrict" is the ability to remove freedoms. Therefore is not …

> note that the local NVMe setup does have backups and WAL-archival to S3, which provides data-durability with RPO of 10s of seconds. That's good, it provides a reasonable level of…

My 2 cents: > Each run lasts 10 minutes, long enough to move past warmup and capture stable throughput But short enough not to show the effect of checkpoints (which is quite notice…

At StackGres [1] we find Timescale to be one of the most used extensions. Timescale is quite a successful project! StackGres is actually the first solution recommended by Timescale…

TBH I don't think it's that straightforward, I see it more of a notable architectural change. At a very high level, this means: * Adding a sharding function, as you say. * Developi…

I have mentioned this before, but here it goes again: I'm really happy that there's more options for Postgres sharding and I applaud Pgdog and the team's efforts and energy. Having…

Yeah, I know. Welcome to the club :( https://x.com/ahachete/status/2035783292549755228

> The extension model is great, but it doesn't work with existing postgres providers (RDS, Aurora, etc.). Unless one such extension becomes standard enough that all providers will …

IMO transparent proxies for observability are not the best pattern. And I speak from experience, we developed the Postgres plugin for Envoy [1], [2] and we use it in StackGres [3],…

Postgres can really scale well vertically (and horizontally for read-only workloads) as the post shows. However, I'm still surprised about the reasons for not sharding. They have b…

Java (modern Java) would be awesome!

I'd also try it, but I'm Linux only ^_^

Not my experience. It's junior level coding and maybe senior level advising, but even then only when clearly directed with the right questions and guardrails. As an autonomous thin…

There's a fundamental disconnect: OP refers to senior engineers being replaced with AI, whereas the evidence and logical reasoning points much more to junior engineers being replac…

Thank you for acknowledging this and updating the blog post correspondingly. I'd love to test and compare PeerDB with Debezium (Embedded), and even SynchDB. But as said, the licens…

"Most components" seems a bit of an understatement when compared with the Framework. Sure, some components can be replaced. And not at the same cost (opening and manipulating the F…

TBH I haven't deeply tested it yet. Laptop is a few days old and I'm still "automating the install" (Ubuntu autoinstall + Ansible tasks for post-installation including BIOS upgrade…
