PostgreSQL Query Rewriting Techniques The previous articles in this series covered performance problems you fix by adding indexes, restructuring joins, or tuning memory. This one is about the queries where the plan is "fine" — every node is doing something reasonable — but the query itself is asking the wrong question, producing unnecessarily large intermediate results or forcing the planner dow

Most freelancers, developers, and job seekers already have their work spread across different platforms. LinkedIn profiles Portfolio websites GitHub projects Freelance platform listings Blog posts Community posts But as more people use AI tools to search, recommend, and discover talent, scattered links can be hard for AI to understand as one clear professional presence. I recently launched a free
Three weeks ago I shipped IndieOps — a free invoicing and client management tool built specifically for freelancers. Here's the honest version of how it went. It handles the boring-but-critical stuff that eats freelancer time: creating professional invoices, collecting payments via Stripe, sending automatic payment reminders, and keeping a client directory.

SQL is widely known for data querying and manipulation but systems do grow; data becomes larger; processes become repetitive and operations become sensitive. SQL has some features which enables it to be considered a fully fledged programming language. Some of the features which I discuss in this article are procedures, functions and transactions. Each of these concepts serve distinct purposes. Sto
Hi 👋, In this post we shall explore Bedrock's structured KB with this architecture: Upload CSVs to S3 > SNS Queue > Crawl data with Glue > Query with Redshift > Bedrock KB > Query with LLM. Let's do some of this with code. Let's get started. Clone the repo and switch to the project directory. git clone [email protected]:networkandcode/networkandcode.github.io.git cd structured-kb-demo/ Do a uv sync
Subqueries vs. CTEs in SQL: A Practical Guide to Writing Cleaner, Smarter Queries Whether you're just getting comfortable with SQL or leveling up your data skills, two tools will come up again and again when working with complex queries: subqueries and Common Table Expressions (CTEs). They solve similar problems — breaking a complex query into manageable pieces — but they do it in different ways
In a previous post, I explored Codd's connection trap in PostgreSQL and MongoDB — the classic pitfall where joining two independent many-to-many relationships through a shared attribute produces spurious combinations that look like facts but aren't. The example followed Codd's 1970 suppliers–parts–projects model: we know which suppliers supply which parts, and which projects use which parts, but j
