PostgreSQL isn’t just a database; it’s a platform. We can build data-driven applications right at the core within PostgreSQL itself. Here, embeddings and RAG. github.com/timescale/pgai

I'm European. I support regulations that protect us without holding back innovation. It's about finding a balance that lets us take risks because global progress is inevitable... but, we may need AI to help us keep up with the right AI regulations. ♾️

I'm really excited about KIP-932 (Queues for Kafka) and its potential for the AI world. This will enable worker architectures to index unstructured documents at scale to feed LLMs. Inference costs keep decreasing with lower latency and more specialized models: SLMs will be at the core of streaming.

It feels odd scrolling through your feed, finding mostly interesting posts you care about and getting overwhelmed by so many cool nuggets. #losthabit #bsky

Who is writing external documentation in your company? Dedicated tech writers? Product? CS? Have you found the right combination for everybody to be happy and efficient?

I find this area tough to nail. Everyone says "it's a collaborative thing" but you always need a driver to own the thing. 🚔

Things like apache/kafka-native feels so nice. It must’ve been a journey to get there, its massive test suite probably helps tremendously to detect and link everything.

Now: It's not an Apache project but where is the lightweight Schema Registry image? (not the 1.7GB joke)

Why #ApacheKafka is always late? There are many great articles on tools for monitoring Kafka. Here, I explore other concepts: the existence of multiple lags, defining end-to-end lag, mitigation strategies, Little’s law, lag stabilization, backpressure, and more. sderosiaux.medium.com/why-kafka-is...
