So... Postgres is now basically a search engine? pg_textsearch was just open sourced. It enables BM25 to search your database.... massive upgrade for key word search. Google uses BM25 in their search engine. Claude told me: "if you're already on Postgres, you can now skip the whole sync-your-data-to-Elasticsearch dance for search." (ps, how can you not love Claude). Now I got to figure out how to implement in my Django querysets... future course? Grab it at github.com/timescale/pg_text… #sponsored

At tonight’s β€œconsultation”… When a high school kid tried to raise concerns about the teachers strike, Bruce McAllister cut the kids mic and then suggested his parents should have beaten him more. Listen to the clip yourself… It’s… Telling. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

I mean… If we’re doing things that might deserve apologies… Allegedly the premiers chief of staff tried to fire me from my role as a paramedic for the work I do with @TheBreakdownAB. An apology for that would be nice. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

How bad was today's stock market decline? Of the 11,406 trading days since January 1980, only 29 had larger declines.

BREAKING: A video is going viral for showing just how stupid Trump’s tariffs on Canada are based on the importance of our lumber imports. EVERY American should see this.

Says the US oligarch
Place sanctions on the top 10 Ukrainian oligarchs, especially the ones with mansions in Monaco, and this will stop immediately. That is the key to the puzzle.

Replying to @elonmusk

If you're a Canadian and you are even remotely cozying up to the idea of becoming the 51st state, or making suggestions that we bend the knee to Trump's economic force, you are a traitor. Get out.
