Logical replication is a great tool, and we are using it for our next DB upgrade coming up in the next few months. It just has a few limitations I wish they would address, especially since logical replication is quickly becoming one of the

I have a Garmin Instinct 2 solar. I had g-shock watches before, because I liked how tough they were, and the instinct2 is pretty close. I wear it swimming, running, sleeping, showering, etc. I take it off about once a month when I charge it

They are, but someone set this up in 2016 or so, and nobody has changed it :) Most likely the person got laid off, or went somewhere else, and nobody on the team has any idea about it.
