Checking out @cspray from @roave speaking about Database Testing! #longhornphp #php #phpc #testing #databases
This is an INSANELY good article on how to build your own key-value #database with everything you need to know.

I've finally written that blog post about how I ran the blue.mackuba.eu app on both MySQL and Postgres in parallel on two servers, testing and comparing them for six months, and how that went https://mackuba.eu/2025/10/15/three-bases-one-app/
Code is easy. Data is hard. Master the fundamentals that keep your software from collapsing under real-world load.

Gratuitous SQL Server stats:
My company's main SQL Server host has 5,200 tables comprising more than 9 billion rows and about ½ terabyte of data.
None of those tables has been queried in the last five months.
Did you know? If you use materialized views in #postgresql, you ... probably can't restore backups created by pg_dump
I just hit this. Had materialized views which assumed that the search path was set to 'public' (which is the default, it's the schema all your tables are).
Upon restoring, the search path is cleared. Then materialized views are refreshed. This fails, because the search path isn't set to 'public'.
This is horrifying... #databases #postgres #sysadmin

New Post: "Superbase on the Commodore 64"
Ready to transform your radical 80s business into a "paperless office" and ditch those antiquated filing cabinets? You're going to need a database to make that happen. Luckily, Superbase is available on your family computer, ready to help you build an "office of the future."
If only its manual were better at explaining how to use it.

While doing a bibliometric analysis, I noticed something strange – recent papers from scholars seemed to disappear from my dataset. The reason? The country officially changed its name to #Türkiye, no longer wishing to be associated with turkey (the bird).

Names and identities matter. Respecting them is essential, and so is being careful with citation databases whose metadata is not always reliable.

What do we say to the god of database tables, hmm?
`SELECT 'date' != CURRENT_DATE();`
"The New York Police Department has quietly built one of the most expansive, integrated #surveillance systems in the nation’s history. What began as a patchwork of #cameras and #databases has evolved into a $3 billion “Domain Awareness System” or (DAS)- capable of tracking, recording, and predicting the movements of millions of people, most of whom have never been accused of a crime."
I do not want a #government to surveil citizens as if they are criminals.
