He nailed it with the kitchen knife vs chainsaw analogy, with postgres+extensions fitting nicely in between. I think a lot of start-ups and b2b businesses would really benefit from the simplicity of 'just use postgres', and I think their work is going to bring that simplicity to more and more companies. The really big products don't need this, but I bet even really big companies have smaller, perhaps internal projects that should start with 'just use postgres'.
This has rapidly become my favourite developer podcast. Kris seems to ask the exact questions I'm starting to think of, but far more articulately and precisely than I could, mixed in with lots of insightful questions I'd never think of. Keep it up 👍
@@DeveloperVoices hey I'm the author of the O'Reilly book async rust, and currently writing the 3rd edition of Rust and web programming for Packt. I'm also helping build surrealDB for the day job. I'm loving your inerviews, it's clear you really understand fundamentals of programming and have experience. Would love to meet you sometime. I'm based in London
Have no interest in postgres but I loved just having this in the background as I did my own coding. Thanks for another wonderful video! I actually found myself happy knowing a little more about postgres despite not being interested in it. Just one little thing to have in my back pocket in case a situation arises where a good extension mechanism in a DB is required, in which case postgres will be the first thing I'll try!

Keep it up with these great interviews!
Are there any good options on sharded\distributed Postgres alternatives?
You misspelled duckdb 😊
Haha. Loving DuckDB at the moment. 😁
First!
