Can we stop using the phrase 'over Engineered', often we actually mean 'under Engineered'. Engineering is the art of meeting constraints, building simple solutions. Not getting lost in minutiae to build 'perfect' nonsense.

@michristofides @ascherbaum complete opposite I think.

@ascherbaum @michristofides I got 'added' to the EDB marketing list at some point, it seems.

@bigcalm Yeh they've been shit all night and day, like a yoyo. Not much comms from them either, very poor, frankly. But then I got no other choice :(.

Nice try, it's named after: Sir Edwin Alliott Verdon Roe

@dick_turpin @Waxingtonknee I never said it was *all* Brexits fault. But Brexit is a significant reason it has got worse. To say that Brexit is not part of the problem is fallacious.

@dick_turpin @Waxingtonknee Except of the places where French passport control operates in the UK, eg: St Pancras.

The entry / exit stamping takes significantly more time. That is a direct result of Brexit.

There are solutions, but exiting the UK and entering the EU is now slower or more expensive, than it was a few years ago.

Maybe if we'd had a better negotiator, it could have been better. But what is true is this is as a result of Brexit.

@l_avrot @ascherbaum I'm sure you'll trigger people.

Went to an EDB wine tasting tonight, was a great time, shame I was the most senior PostgreSQL community person there.some really nice wine though.

My colleague Kumaran on the advantages of building Progressive Web Apps over native apps for startup and small businesses.

https://nexteam.co.uk/post/product/pwas-are-a-real-option

I think this is pretty solid advice for people who want to get an app to market fast and cost effectively.

We're currently working on a couple ourselves ;)
