But that's because IBM has a strong presence in the SQL standard committee and can nudge it to standarise (post-factum) things they already implemented in DB2.

Postgres at least will store rows roughly in insert order. So whether you're using integers or UUIDs for primary keys won't affect on-disk layout. When scanning the index, the database will be traversing it in btree order, anyway,

Sorry, ticked off my OCD :) It's better to say "key text" instead of "key varchar(1024)" and primary key already implies not null.

What is the epiphany here? What is the insight or enlightenment to be gained from this story? I have my own, but I'm curious about what people believe is the moral of the story.

That's also why, when you go to the movies and it turns out tickets cost the same regardless of the film, you should go for the one with the longest running time.

One of the important reasons Postgres connections are serviced by a separate process is that if that process segfaults, you only disconnect other connections (because if might have tainted shared memory when it died), but the main database

Why can't you use a connection that has issued LISTEN for anything else? In fact, I'm fairly sure you can use it normally. We're using NOTIFY to broadcast database changes to services that should react to them and it's

I've been thinking about switching to sup a few times, but the inability to sync changes back to the IMAP server is a deal breaker to me. If I mark an email as read in sup, I don't want it to show up as unread on my phone. If I de

What I meant is that using PKCS#5 padding ("N bytes of a value of N") will make it even more susceptible to a CBC oracle attack. I'm not nearly qualified to talk about that stuff, but instead of requiring PyCrypto maybe you should require K

Better idea: check which of those keys are in the Debian Weak SSH Keys list and own their GitHub accounts (or find if they have any servers and start SSHing into them). Less nefariously: send them an email asking to regenerate the key.

Yes, thank you, sorry for too big of a mental shortcut. By bad tests I mean trivial tests (much like trivial comments that just state the obvious), or ones that work on an assumption that need not be generally true and thus changes of the c
