Call of paper is still open at PGDay Fr 2025! Talks can be in English this year... And this will take place in Mons, Belgium, early June. Because PostgreSQL Fr is not about France, it's a recognized NPO about both French speaking countries and PostgreSQL ;-)
See you there!

You need to inspect correctly WALs activities in a PG container in a quick, elegant and efficient way?

This is a solution I propose, with some FILTER love embedded.

Flashback to when I was teaching a DB Intro class that was in Oracle by decree from the lecturer, and it was so obvious I hated it that in the end-of-semester student eval I found, no joke, "please just let him use Postgres it's too painful"

Go 1.24 interactive tour Weak pointers, faster maps, directory-scoped access, and more.

Looks like @golang.org 1.24 is going to be pretty epic!

Weak pointers, properly working finalizers alone might change the game! Then optimized maps, native fake clock, benchmarking reliability and ease of use, and tooling dependency management.. and more!

My lab at home for PostgreSQL things | jpa's home From sandbox to sand castle!

I think a #PostgreSQL DBA can't never be too far from infrastructure components. Today this means *also* Kubernetes, "DevOps" and so on... What's your opinion? The last article on my blog about my home lab could be a good illustration : blog.argudo.org/posts/homelab/

Oui! je vois partout des posts pour faire en sorte que W10 puisse migrer à W11 (ou pas)... Ou éviter qu'outlook ne se mette à jour, etc. Mieux vaut passer sous Linux! Certes il faudra faire des efforts, et apprendre un peu (lire des docs surtout). Mais l'investissement est très vite rentabilisé !

So I've started a blog. I hesitated *a lot* before doing this. But I've been asked again at PostgreSQL Conference Europe 2024 in Athen by someone rather young (half my age) to write my journey in the PostgreSQL Community, so I did. Feel free to read or not to read, it's a blog :-)
