I'd have to disagree with you on the tooling. Mature (especially commercial) SQL databases have a lot of great tooling built around them that inany areas surpass most of the language tools. For example, Extended events, which comes wit

You might've forgotten to reference LINQ and Collections.Generic in your project? Because C# definitely has good collection APIs that influenced many languages including Java Streams.

Agree with you - would love to hear some of the core PG devs to pay attention and discuss this work.

Great post, thanks! One typo, which is a bit confusing until you look at the source code to confirm it's actually --ftrace: "The Cosmopolitan Libc _start() function starts by intercepting the --strace flag"

I'm far from expert in linux debugging, but I liked my experience with VS code gdb support - you can set breakpoints, stepping in/out works fine, you of course get nice code navigation and so on. My experience was mostly with Post

Yes, I see, thanks for clearing it up. I understand and can agree with this reasoning, - even if as a Russian (anti Putin and anti war, of course), this war is just too painful and too overwhelming for me to consider it in a broader anti-co

This is proper racist post-colonialism, or am I missing sarcasm tag?

From the operations perspective, SQL Server is definitely way better that Postgres - monitoring is such a pain point in Postgres, for example. From application development/feature perspective, it's much closer, and server-side pr

It's because the default Postgres configuration is very basic and targeted at low-end hardware. Besides, in Postgres you have to tune some of the settings that other databases take care of automagically (work_mem being probably the tri

In this sense computers and language, for example, are also not a property of natural world. So you can't have sciences that study and/or use computers or languages?

I feel this is missing a lot of details. Even if there's a single promotion per team per year (and there are certainly companies where promotions are not limited like that), that means that, in a team of 4 people, 50% will be promoted

Couldn't agree more! Erwin's SO answers are incredible source of knowledge on Postgresql usage, especially things like plpgsql. I benefited from his answers a lot, thanks to Erwin.

That depends a lot on the workload, of course. But quite often the DB is not constrained on CPU, but rathen on IO or memory (or even networking), and calculations mostly consume CPU. Moreover, calculations usually require just a small subse

I wouldn't paint all hints with the same brush - it's not like the very fact of having a hint exposes query planner internals for arbitrary usage. Some hints may be more useful than others, and some may be less complicated to main
