They acquired Crunchy Data and now have some of the most prominent Postgres developers working there.

> I'm still waiting for a Postgres provider to just let me mirror data directly to Iceberg, so I can plug in my own stateless query engine. The issue that each of those providers a…

I’d like to second this. Being able to change the color using the dial would be…satisfying.

I’ve built a similar thing against Snowflake, with one added layer: tenant-scoped views with the ID baked in, and an associated tenant-scoped role that only has read access to its …

> A data warehouse on the other hand is an OLAP database and is optimized to work on columns A bit of a pedantic nit here: a data warehouse is a usage pattern. It’s not necessarily…

This is how I feel with my Airpods. Just break already!

That’s well beyond what a stock Postgres server would reasonably handle

They always have been diluted. Titles mean vastly different things at almost every company.

I’ve been using Crush with Openrouter and have good success lately https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush

I’ll never not watch this when it’s posted

> we built pg_textsearch Maybe you meant to word this differently and I’m nitpicking, but didn’t TJ Green build this while he was still at Tiger Data?

Unsubscribing from The Economist was one of the most frustrating corporate interactions I've ever had. Honestly if it was easier to unsubscribe I'd probably have an on and off agai…

I’m sorry but this is just bad financial advice

https://pginbox.dev Repo: https://github.com/jbonatakis/pginbox Makes reading/searching the Postgres mailing lists easier. I’m polling a Fastmail inbox to nearly instantly receive …

CMU very recently had a seminar [1] with the founder of SpacetimeDB, which was very interesting. The recording should be up in the next few days I expect [1] https://db.cs.cmu.edu/…

I’ve been working on a site that makes it easier to follow the Postgres mailing lists, which can be a bit of a firehose https://pginbox.dev

Yet I don’t see Google listed as a sponsor for this year’s pgconf.dev [1], which is the main developer-focused conference in the Postgres community. All the other major players you…

Postgres uses Meson+Ninja in their builds. That seems like a pretty big endorsement.

I don't know about OpenAI using a lot of Python, but Astral builds all their tools in Rust and just exposes Python bindings. Codex is all Rust. It feels like a reasonable acquisiti…

I have been building this in my free time and it might be relevant to you: https://github.com/jbonatakis/blackbird I have the same basic workflow as you outlined, then I feed the d…

Very much mvp but I just got this all set up: https://www.pginbox.dev/ Downloaded and parsed a bunch of the pgsql-hackers mailing list. Right now it’s just a pretty basic alternati…

Well it’s not even performance (define that however you will), but behavior is definitely different model to model. So while whatever new model is released might get billed as an i…

Google is already sending notices that the 2.5 models will be deprecated soon while all the 3.x models are in preview. It really is wild and peak Google.
