Fair enough. I don't know him though (never heard the name) and after skimming through the first paragraphs of each item and reading this I closed the window instantly as for me it invalidated the information where I had no in depth knowledge myself. As in 'how can I trust any of the rest if something so fundamental is off'.

Very unfortunate if what you say is true. I guess I'll give him the benefit of the doubt then and go read the rest.



I don't know the author, but when I read an article by someone who obviously knows something about Postgres (knowing something about Postgres myself), I feel it's much more likely that they made a slight language error.


I would tend to agree with that. The problem becomes how to come to the conclusion that he "obviously knows something about Postgres".

My skimming of the first few paragraphs was trying to do just that and my conclusion seems to have been the opposite of everyone else :)
