Just add SEPA payments from Europe and I won't touch Visa or MC ever again.

I know that's not the intention, but saying it like that slides into apology territory.

We should be absolutely appalled at the firing, maybe to a lesser extent, but there is no better time to point out this than during a big event.

It's kinda like saying 'protestors should not disrupt public spaces', like they have done everything else, what else do people need to wake up and draw the line?

ALSO to it's own citizens, but also everyone else

Postgres is far superior in every way.

We used MySQL (and Percona XtraDB) servers at work, and it is so bad. So I made several presentations showing generic and specific reasons why Postgres is better. I had to cut a lot of content because MySQL is just that bad.

Some things may not seem relevant now, but as you keep the DB around long enough, you will appreciate the whole package of Postgres.

Things that will help a lot, but are extensions:

  • pg_partman - for automatic partition management
  • patroni - management of replicas, automatic failover - it does everything for you with simple commands

There is a DB comparison matrix, but hasn't been updated in over a year, which is a shame, but still gives you the idea of how different databases support SQL features: link.

Spoiler: postgres has the most support, with a huge lead

Edit: MySQL is dead last, btw

Hey, remember that StarWars game that Reddit convinced people to shout loudly is getting children to gambling, thus scaring Disney into immediate action?

Yeah, that was fun.
