PG Down Under show 6 with guest James Blackwood-Sewell is published!

I had the pleasure of recording a new PG Down Under podcast this morning. My guest was James Blackwood-Sewell.
James loves Postgres, Rust, and Kubernetes, and he says, in that order.
He spends his time chasing his children around New Zealand, working on making search transactional at ParadeDB, and talking about PGRX (a Rust based framework for writing Postgres extensions).
This show
In this show, we start by discussing Rust and why it’s become a hot topic amongst developers. In particular, it has strengths around writing reliable code because of its memory management, and its compile-time checking.
Then we discussed how this all fits in with PostgreSQL.
We ended by discussing the upcoming Postgres Down Under conference .
I hope you enjoy listening to the show.
