Unexpected downsides of UUID keys in PostgreSQL
We use a macaddr8 that embeds a wall-clock timestamp (so they're ascending order, achieving data locality) with some additional randomness. It's worked really well for us:
https://github.com/estuary/flow/blob/master/supabase/migrati...
we use macaddr8 instead of bigint, because it has a postgres serialization / JSON encoding which lossless-ly round-trips with browsers and it works well with PostgREST. The same CANNOT be said for bigint, which is a huge footgun.

Need Advice on Real-Time Data Synchronization from PostgreSQL to BigQuery: Airbyte vs. CloudQuery?
I can't claim to know much about CloudQuery, but we are an open-source platform with CDC connectors from PostgreSQL and materializations to BQ and elsewhere. We also have fully-managed connectors if you don't want to deal with hosting.

DAG orchestration for streaming data?
This is essentially how we model things in Flow (disclosure: I work there). We call them Derivations, which are data products that are built (derived) from other data products. Each data product (we call them Collections) is backed by a set of append-only logs, so they can be read by many different consumers at different times. IDK if our product can work for you since we don't (yet) support stuff like MQTT, but there's a pretty generous free tier if you'd be able to push the data over HTTP. Either way, I just think it's cool that others have independently arrived at similar ideas about how to model streaming tasks!

On 2022-04-05, the default branch will be renamed from โmasterโ to โmainโ
It does seem like a weird bug that this would cause errors https://github.com/estuary/flow/runs/5642694619?check_suite_... seems like it should be some kind of warning instead of an error?

How Telemetry Saved my Open-Source Platform
It would be a shame not to mention PostHog as the telemetry provider we are using, since it turned out to be extremely useful. Because it is hard to find people who will talk with you about your product, gathering statistics gave us a much greater insight into our users.

Using Analytics on My Website
Hi HN, PostHog employee here. I'm working on our Web Analytics product, which is currently in beta. It's fun to see us mentioned here :)
I should mention that we have a ton of SDKs (see https://posthog.com/docs/libraries) for back end frameworks and languages, so if you wanted to use PostHog without any client-side JS you could send pageviews and other events manually, but for the vast majority of people it makes more sense to use our JS snippet.
Hijacking this comment to share the roadmap for web analytics https://github.com/PostHog/posthog/issues/18547. It's very much in the launch-early-and-be-embarassed phase, but I would love to hear any feedback or suggestions that people have, particularly if you're already a PostHog user.

Ask HN: Where to Store Logs?
Don't insert the logs/events/analytics into your Application DB. Usually, you send those to specialist datastores (OLAP etc) that process such high volume of data. You can use something like clickhouse [0] for example or use 3rd party SAAS solutions like posthog [1] etc that are built on top of clickhouse

Ask HN: What would you use to build a mostly CRUD back end today?
I may use Flask-Admin initially to offload the "CRUD" operations to have an initial prototype fast but then drop it ASAP because I don't want to write a "flask-admin application" to fight against later on. If the application is mainly "CRUD", then Flask-Admin is suitable.
Now...
Would you do a breakdown/list of all the jobs you've done by sector/vertical and by function/role and by application functionality?
