I found this interesting because I foresee China catching up rapidly just like they did with cars.

I disagree. If that was the case, pgBouncer wouldn't need to exist.

The problem of resource usage for many connections is real.


It's about queueing work, not running all these queries at the same time. You can run pgbouncer or you can have a pool on your backend. Having more connections won't make it go faster, so that really seems like a low-priority thing for postgres to me. Even if you integrated pooling into postgres the overhead of auth would be still taking time for small queries anyway.

that's too simplistic.

there are many reasons to need something like pgbouncer.

1) not all workloads lend themselves to backend pools

2) not all backends can afford pooling

3) you don't always control your backend

4) you might have a lot of different backends connecting to the database. it's much simpler to just tell them to connect to pgbouncer.

5) you don't want to trust backend team to not bring postgresql down with many simultaneolus connections.

6) backend pools often misbehave

people don't wake up one day and just add another cog to their infrastructure randomly.


traumas for one. not being able to picture some traumatic event surely helps

He has nearly limitless money and is positioning to continue like that on the foreseeable future by using others money to invest

is that daily?

I'm taking same dose, 50000UI but bi-weekly and it's D3, not D2.


That's my observation too.

And I have been trying to improve the framework and abstractions/types to reduce the lines of code required for LLMs to create features in my web app.

Did the LLM really needed to spit 1k lines for this feature? Could I create abstractions to make it feasible in under 300 lines?

Of course there's cost and diminishing returns to abstractions so there are tradeoffs.


even AI can't be bothered to read AI generated docs slop

Apple doesn't allow communicating that to the user and neither price differentiation to compensate their fees.

Which makes it even more petty coming from Apple.

Money number must go up!

After the $1k monitor stand I don't doubt Apple can get away with selling ANYTHING.
