Add your name and email to our friends of the show list, we'll never share it. Michael #1: PostgreSQL 18 Released PostgreSQL 18 is out (Sep 25, 2025) with a focus on faster text handling, async I/O, and easier upgrades. New async I/O subsystem speeds sequential scans, bitmap heap scans, and vacuum by issuing concurrent reads instead of blocking on each request. Major-version upgrades are smoother: pg_upgrade retains planner stats, adds parallel checks via -jobs, and supports faster cutovers with -swap. Smarter query performance lands with skip scans on multicolumn B-tree indexes, better OR optimization, incremental-sort merge joins, and parallel GIN index builds. Dev quality-of-life: virtual generated columns enabled by default, a uuidv7() generator for time-ordered IDs, and RETURNING can expose both OLD and NEW. Security gets an upgrade with native OAuth 2.0 authentication; MD5 password auth is deprecated and TLS controls expand. Text operations get a boost via the new PG_UNICODE_FAST collation, faster upper/lower, a casefold() helper, and clearer collation behavior for LIKE/FTS. Brian #2: Testing is better than DSA (Data Structures and Algorithms) Ned Batchelder If you need to grind through DSA problems to get your first job, then of course, do that, but if you want to prepare yourself for a career, and also stand out in job interviews, learn how to write tests. Testing is a skill you'll use constantly, will make you stand out in job interviews, and isn't taught well in school (usually). Testing code well is not obvious. It's a puzzle and a problem to solve. It gives you confidence and helps you write better code. Applies everywhere, at all levels. Notes from Brian Most devs suck at testing, so being good at it helps you stand out very quickly. Thinking about a system and how to test it often very quickly shines a spotlight on problem areas, parts with not enough specification, and fuzzy requirements. This is a good thing, and bringing up these topics helps you to become a super valuable team member. High level tests need to be understood by key engineers on a project. Even if tons of the code is AI generated. Even if many of the tests are, the people understanding the requirements and the high level tests are quite valuable. Michael #3: Pyrefly in Cursor/PyCharm/VSCode/etc Install the VSCode/Cursor extension or PyCharm plugin, see https://pyrefly.org/en/docs/IDE/ Brian spoke about Pyrefly in #433: Dev in the Arena I've subsequently had the team on Talk Python: #523: Pyrefly: Fast, IDE-friendly typing for Python (podcast version coming in a few weeks, see video for now.) My experience has been Pyrefly changes the feel of the editor, give it a try. But disable the regular language server extension. Brian #4: Playwright & pytest techniques that bring me joy Tim Shilling “I've been working with playwright more often to do end to end tests. As a project grows to do more with HTMX and Alpine in the markup, there's less unit and integration test coverage and a greater need for end to end tests.” Tim covers some cool E2E techniques Open new pages / tabs to be tested Using a pytest marker to identify playwright tests Using a pytest marker in place of fixtures Using page.pause() and Playwright's debugging tool Using assert_axe_violations to prevent accessibility regressions Using page.expect_response() to confirm a background request occurred From Brian Again, with more and more lower level code being generated, and many unit tests being generated (shakes head in sadness), there's an increased need for high level tests. Don't forget API tests, obviously, but if there's a web interface, it's gotta be tested. Especially if the primary user experience is the web interface, building your Playwright testing chops helps you stand out and let's you test a whole lot of your system with not very many tests. Extras Brian: Big O - By Sam Who Yes, take Ned's advice and don't focus so much on DSA, focus also on learning to test. However, one topic you should be comfortable with in algortithm-land is Big O, at least enough to have a gut feel for it. And this article is really good enough for most people. Great graphics, demos, visuals. As usual, great content from Sam Who, and a must read for all serious devs. Python 3.14.0rc3 has been available since Sept 18. Python 3.14.0 final scheduled for Oct 7 Django 6.0 alpha 1 released Django 6.0 final scheduled for Dec 3 Python Test Static hosting update Some interesting discussions around setting up my own server, but this seems like it might be yak shaving procrastination research when I really should be writing or coding. So I'm holding off until I get some writing projects and a couple SaaS projects further along. Joke: Always be backing up

Six years, a prototype, and a brief multi-layered descent into “wronger and wronger” design—what does it take to land a major architectural change in Postgres? In Episode 31 of Talking Postgres, Andres Freund—major contributor, Postgres committer, and lead of the Asynchronous I/O project—shares the wins, the missteps, and why he thinks AIO definitely took too long. We dig into io_uring in Linux, direct I/O, streaming reads, technical leadership, and exactly when is the right time to stop working on a prototype. If you've ever wondered how big architectural changes happen, or why they sometimes take years, this episode is for you.

Fredrik talks to Taylor Troesh about packaging things, generating code, and database evolution. Why is it so hard to package and build things? Is it a failure of ergonomics? Is there hope for a change? We also discuss generating code using LLMs, and Taylor presents the workflow of using them to generate projects from scratch, starting over if more fundamental changes are needed. After that, we dig into databases and SQL, and Taylor has many thoughts and opinions about how they can be used and might evolve. Finally, we discuss other interesting projects, keeping track of ideas, what the OPTC is, and why should you cut down a palm tree? Recorded during Øredev 2024.

I was reading Brandon Sanderson's latest novel, Wind and Truth, when I came across a sentence that stopped me cold: "A stronger current makes for stronger fish."That's it. That's what entrepreneurship is.We're constantly encountering currents that either facilitate what we want to accomplish—the businesses we want to build, the lives we want to create—or they oppose us, trying to sweep us into dangerous waters. These currents change all the time. They vary in strength depending on where you are in your journey. And here's the thing: they're mostly invisible until you learn to feel them.Someone on Twitter asked me what my top three currents were after I shared this thought. It turned out to be a revealing exercise—assessing what I'm exposed to, what I'm dealing with, and how I'm navigating these forces. So let me share what I've discovered about the currents pulling at me as I build Podscan.This episode of The Bootstraped Founder is sponsored by Paddle.com — The Web Revenue Lab SeriesThe blog post: https://thebootstrappedfounder.com/the-currents-of-a-founder/The podcast episode: https://tbf.fm/episodes/411-the-currents-of-a-founderCheck out Podscan, the Podcast database that transcribes every podcast episode out there minutes after it gets released: https://podscan.fmSend me a voicemail on Podline: https://podline.fm/arvidYou'll find my weekly article on my blog: https://thebootstrappedfounder.comPodcast: https://thebootstrappedfounder.com/podcastNewsletter: https://thebootstrappedfounder.com/newsletterMy book Zero to Sold: https://zerotosold.com/My book The Embedded Entrepreneur: https://embeddedentrepreneur.com/My course Find Your Following: https://findyourfollowing.comHere are a few tools I use.

In deze aflevering spreken we met Farshad Poye, verantwoordelijk voor de Nederlandse markt bij EnterpriseDB, en Driss Chhayra, die binnen EDB de EMEA-markt aanstuurt. Ze nemen ons mee in de groei van PostgreSQL binnen Kubernetes, de rol van open source in hybride infrastructuur én hoe AI dichter bij je data komt te staan dan ooit.We blikken terug op de ontwikkelingen sinds hun eerdere (meest beluisterde!) aflevering, EDB's operator is nu als sandbox opgenomen in de CNCF, en biedt met CloudNativePG de mogelijkheid om PostgreSQL volledig open source in Kubernetes te draaien. Wat begon als testomgeving, groeit nu uit tot enterprise-ready – met rolling upgrades, snapshots, en failover mechanismen.Daarnaast delen Farshad en Driss hoe EDB de brug slaat naar AI. Met geïntegreerde modellen in Postgres wordt AI toegankelijker: AI-toepassingen draaien direct op het platform waar je data al staat, zonder dataverplaatsing. Denk aan MVP's bouwen in vijf stappen en verkoopdata analyseren zonder dat je zelf AI-specialist hoeft te zijn.Tot slot bespreken we de rol van open source in digitale vrijheid, en hoe organisaties met behoud van soevereiniteit hun infrastructuur toekomstbestendig maken — of je nu in de cloud werkt, on-premise of in een hybride setup.Stuur ons een bericht.ACC ICT Specialist in IT-CONTINUÏTEIT Bedrijfskritische applicaties én data veilig beschikbaar, onafhankelijk van derden, altijd en overalSupport the showLike and subscribe!

It's always a good day if you see a pelican. In Episode 30 of Talking Postgres with Claire Giordano, open source developer Simon Willison—creator of Datasette and co-creator of Django—joins to explore how AI is useful for data engineers today. We move past the hype and boosterism to dig into example after example: structured data extraction, alt text and accessibility, safety and security (aka the fiddly bits), and why Postgres's fine-grained permissions are such a good fit for AI-powered workflows. Also: Pulitzer-worthy data tooling, the science fiction of the 10X engineer, agents, MCP, RAG, the multitude of models, and why Simon spends so many waking hours on the jagged frontier of AI.Links mentioned in this episode:Blog: Simon Willison's WeblogBlog: Simon's Willison's TIL - Things I've LearnedPodcast episode: Working in public on open source with Simon Willison and Marco SlotProject page: Django Web FrameworkProject page: Datasette, for finding stories in data GitHub repo: llm CLI tool and Python libraryDemo: Language models on the command-line w/ Simon WillisonBlog post: OpenAI's new open weight (Apache 2) models are really good, by Simon Willison Podcast episode: Accessibility and Gen AI podcast with guest Simon WillisonBlog post: New dashboard: alt text for all my images, by Simon Willison Keynote talk: Big Opportunities in Small Data, by Simon Willison at Citus Con: An Event for Postgres 2023 Blog post: How OpenElections Uses LLMs, by Derek Willis Blog posts tagged with pelican-riding-a-bicycle on Simon Willison's Weblog Blog post: No, AI is not Making Engineers 10x as Productive, via Colton Voege, featured on Simon's weblogGitHub repo: pgvector extension to PostgresCal invite: LIVE recording of Ep31 of Talking Postgres to happen on Wed Sep 17, 2025

AI – and how to secure it – is a hot topic right now, and being able to spend time working with the Google development team was really insightful, with how they work with various levels of protections in place in dummy applications. Ryan was especially interested in the back-end logic that was executed in the applications. 05:32 Ryan – “I was impressed because there’s how we’re thinking about AI is still evolving, and how we’re protecting it’s gonna be changing rapidly, and having real-world examples really helped really flesh out how their AI services are, how they’re integrated into a security ecosystem. It was pretty impressive. And it’s something that’s near and dear. I’ve been working and trying to roll out Google agent spaces and different AI workloads and trying to get involved and make sure that we, just getting visibility into all the different ones. And that was, it was really helpful to sort of think about it in those contexts.” 10:13 OpenAI secures $30bn cloud deal with Oracle OpenAI signed a $30 billion annual cloud computing agreement with Oracle for 4.5GW of capacity, making it one of the largest AI cloud deals to date, and nearly triple Oracle’s current $10.3 billion annual data center infrastructure revenue.

From dreaming of driving a bus to leading database engineering at Microsoft. In Episode 29 of Talking Postgres with Claire Giordano, Shireesh Thota traces his path to becoming CVP of Azure databases—rooted in a love of math, early BASIC programming, and a certainty that he'd become an engineer. We dig into the shift from engineer to manager (if only people came with documentation); why it's so important for Microsoft to contribute to the PostgreSQL open source project—not just consume it; and whether Shireesh has a favorite database (hint: it better be Postgres.)Links mentioned in this episode:Blog post excerpt: Why we have a Postgres open source contributor team at MicrosoftPodcast episode: Leading engineering for Postgres on Azure with Affan DarVS Code Marketplace: New VS Code extension for PostgreSQLPOSETTE 2025 talk: Introducing Microsoft's VS Code extension for Postgres by Matt McFarlandLinkedIn post: PGConf.dev 2025 talk on “The trouble with extensions” by Marco SlotPodcast episode: How I got started as a developer (& in Postgres) with David RowleyBook: Who Moved My CheeseCal invite: LIVE recording of Ep30 of Talking Postgres to happen on Wed Aug 6, 2025

What drives someone to publish 600+ issues of a Postgres newsletter for over a decade? In Episode 28 of Talking Postgres with Claire Giordano, Peter Cooper—creator of Postgres Weekly—shares how his days of rustic programming and QBASIC fanzines on Usenet led to a newsletter empire that now reaches nearly half a million developers each week. We dig into the BBC's "big tent" editorial influence, an accidental business model that just worked, and the perils of "temporary" hacks.
