Database collates are ridiculous. Why would I want to globally configure a database's ordering rules? Either I care about presenting locale-appropriate orderings, in which case I need that to be configured PER APPLICATION USER, or I don't care, in which care just use whatever makes the most sense for performance/simplicity (probably ordering by byte value). I don't understand the use case for database-global collate settings. #postgresql #postgres#mysql #databases #rdbms #programming

Oho! Here is a new in-depth p2panda blog post!
https://p2panda.org/2025/07/09/streams-transactions-crash-resilience.html
This one is about the strategies and design ideas we’re exploring to make p2p applications resilient to critical failures, for both system- and application layers.
