pro tip for user interface designers:

if you have hundreds of millions of dollars of venture capital and you want to make a user facing data analytics tool of some kind and you think it's reasonable to ask an average human being to type this:

CAST('2023-05-01' AS TIMESTAMP)

to do literally anything with a date or time in your application's user interface, just stop right there. do not pass go, do not collect $200, and do not ever attempt to offer feedback to a UX designer ever again. something is deeply broken inside you that means there are certain mysteries of the universe that even the guys who designed the postgres command line can access that you will never know, and that's ok. You can still live a really rad life.

It can be challenging to run applications with stringent high availability requirements, low latency requests, and ensure there's a reliable database management system powering it all. Luckily, there's #PostgreSQL to the rescue. 🐘

Multi-master distributed #Postgres as a solution is discussed in depth in our technical whitepaper - view it here: pgedge.com/landing-pages/multi

🎙️ New episode 28 of the #TalkingPostgres #podcast is out!

Peter Cooper (@cooperx86)—the witty, irreverent, & wicked smart programmer & editor-in-chief of Cooperpress—joined me to talk about "12 years of Postgres Weekly"

We started near the Prime Meridian and time-traveled through his early days writing QBASIC fanzines on Usenet, all the way to building a newsletter empire that reaches nearly half a million devs each week—with his own geeky, opinionated tone of voice.

Spam filters, photoshop, & one very cheesy story included. Give it a listen & please boost 🚀
