Subjective and anecdotal experience: My most productive period was working with people that I got along really well with, as opposed to people I sort of just put up with.

Reading this on Safari on my iPad, the favicon for this tab is the Youtube logo. I genuinely have no idea how this bug came about, but it's been like that for months now.

I haven't ruled out building AI-powered queries into the app, but I am firm about doing it in a way that respects data security (i.e. no shipping database schemas or data to ChatGPT without explicit user consent). From my understandi

Yes, there's an option in the hamburger menu to edit queries manually, and that will allow you to type in (or paste in) the query by hand. Re. the saved query restriction - I am planning to work on this app in the long term, which unfo

If there are any Lisp/Emacs people reading this, I think structural editing can work really well on touch devices.

This is a very fair point. I'm not trying to replace desktops with mobile here. I think database administration is still going to be easier with a big monitor and a keyboard, and that's not going to change. Rather I'm trying

Don't think you need to single out the US here. Gamification is effective against most human beings.

I've built Selectable - a freemium Postgres client for Android devices. It's currently available for open testing, links below. The key feature is the SQL query editor. The query editor was designed to be mobile-friendly. With aut

Situations where you have analysis paralysis are situations where the solutions are, as far as you know , equally good. Think about it - if one solution was obviously better than the other, you wouldn't be stuck deciding! That means p
