Extension Ecosystem: Jobs and Tools

This document sketches an idealized Postgres extension ecosystem.

Why?

The past year has seen a surge in interest in Postgres extension distribution. A number of people have noted in particular the challenges in finding and

I created this Proof of Concept (PoC) and video demonstrate how prompt routing can be used to make ChatGPT dynamically
select the targeted prompt, achieving better results. The concept involves categorizing the initial prompt using ChatGPT
and then selecting a more specific prompt based on the tag to resend targeted prompt to ChatGPT. This PoC showcases the
efficiency we can gain when using speech recognition and AI tools in development. I will release the code-assist tool on
GitHub once I have more free time to clean up the code. If we have a set of well-tested prompts for different types of
specific tasks, I believe this tooling approach can help us increase our productivity by skipping a few steps in our
repetitious daily work tasks than just code generation. Editing code, issuing commands (with safety checks), and
automated scope-down online search are the next steps to multiply work productivity.

Anti-hype LLM reading list

Goals: Add links that are reasonable and good explanations of how stuff works. No hype and no vendor content if possible. Practical first-hand accounts of models in prod eagerly sought.

Rethinking Boundaries: Merging End-to-End Testing and Implementation with Macro Abstractions

In traditional software development, there's a clear boundary separating end-to-end testing and implementation. This conventional mindset, however, faces a challenge with the introduction of a unique software development paradigm proposing the unification of these two aspects.

Underpinning this concept, a Domain-Specific Language (DSL) is used. This language serves to sketch out a detailed sequence of actions and responses - acting as test specifications. Interestingly, at the same time, these sequences also provide a functional model of the system's behavior and thus can serve as an efficient implementation.

Let's dive deeper with an example. Consider you are crafting multiple test cases for a basic addition operation in a calculator application. After designing a few tests, you spot a consistent pattern of steps - you enter two numbers, add them together, and finally, you expect a result.

Here is how it would

Automating Daily Reports, because fuck it, really...

Each day at our company, developers are required to document their activities, painstakingly jotting down their daily work and future plans. A monotonous chore that I just really dislike.

So now, there's a scribe for that :

The problem

Initial situation

Using Fedora 38, say you want to update the package albert from manuelschneid3r, hosted at https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=home:manuelschneid3r&package=albert.

And with dnf update, you get the following output:

~ sudo dnf update
Dependencies resolved.
