What it does

pg_session_jwt is a PostgreSQL extension designed to handle authenticated sessions through a JWT. When configured with a JWK (JSON Web Key), it verifies JWT authenticity. When operating without a JWK, it can fall back to using PostgREST-compatible JWT claims parameter. JWK can only be set at postmaster startup, from the configuration file, or by client request in the connection startup packet (e.g., from libpq's PGOPTIONS variable), whereas the JWT can be set anytime at runtime. When a JWK is configured, the extension stores the JWT in the database for later retrieval and exposes functions to retrieve the user ID (the sub subject field) and other parts of the payload. When no JWK is…from github.com

    This is an experimental extension for CRDTs, pg_crdt: GitHub repo[0]. It supports Yjs/Yrs and Automerge. The linked blog post [1] describes how we're thinking about this extension in a Supabase context. I want to emphasise this part: "pg_crdt has not been released onto the Supabase platform (and it may never be). We’re considering many options for offline-sync/support and, while CRDTs will undoubtedly factor in, we’re not sure if this is the right approach."

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
