#postgresql16 — Public Fediverse posts

Thanks for the link but the details are hard to understand. But the important sentence:
ignore these characters for sorting
I guess '*' is simply ignored,
also by unix-sort:
(echo "**F";echo "*G";echo "**K" )|sort
**F *G **K
#postgres #postgresql #postgresql16

with collate "C" the order is
**F **K *G 😀
With Unix-sort I get also the unusual order:
( echo "**F"; echo "*G"; echo "**K" ) | sort
**F *G **K
It seems that '*' is simply ignored, i.e. ordering happens on ("F", "G","K")

I use #nixos stable 24.05; I think glibc 2.39-52.
But that should not play a role!
Since '*' < 'G' ,
'**K' < '*G' should be true.
Aren't strings ordered by lexicographical char order?
#postgres #postgresql #postgresql16

but since '*' < 'G' == true
I would assume '**K' < '*G'
Where am I mistaken?

'**F' < '*G' evaluates to true as does '*G' < '**K'
so it holds '**F' < '*G' < '**K'

'**F' < '*G' evaluates to true as does '*G' < '**K'
so it holds '**F' < '*G' < '**K'

Strange sorting of #postgres 16.4
select * from (values ('**K'),('*G'),('**F')) as t (c) order by c
give the following order: **F *G **K
but '*G' < '**K' evaluates to true.

Now that #PostgreSQL 16 has been released, Roji has also released the #Npgsql hotfixes 5.0.17, 6.0.10 and 7.0.6. They contain quite a few bugfixes and one replication-related compatibility fix for #PostgreSQL16, so make sure, you upgrade your #dotNET projects to the latest compatible version.

😲 #PostgreSQL16 will have a pg_stat_io to monitor ios 🤓

Thanks @melanieplageman 👍
