Introducing pg_duckdb: an #OpenSource project (MIT licensed) that will bring #DuckDB to #PostgreSQL - backed by #DuckDB, #Microsoft, #HydraDatabase, #NeonDatabase, and #MotherDuck. Seems like it'll be a powerful new tool being added to #Postgres' bountiful ecosystem of #extensions.

Neon went GA today!

Is his reasoning sound or has he lost his marbles?
Got access to #neondatabase. Love typing out psql -h pg.neon.tech to log in to the database. Absolutely love it. Definitely going to need to learn how they did this. Makes it real easy to play with.
Still haven't the time spin up my own instance of neon, but will soon. I think this is exactly what the community needed to start doing fancy things on #serverless. All while not being gated by the big corps.
