  • Seeing your other comments on this post, I urge you to think twice about embarking on whatever it is you’re about to attempt, because it is clear you have no idea what’s in store for you. I really don’t mean it as a demeaning thing, what you’re describing is hard.

    I suggest looking into a postgres tutorial first and foremost, it will teach you the basics of DBMS and how to use SQL, and when you understand that and what the database does for the applications you’re used to, revisit this project. Being a database administrator is a literal full time job in the enterprise world, and for good reason, and you don’t sound like you know enough about it to go in guns blazing.








  • Learnt nothing, in french you would say “Sacre Bleu”, lit. “Blue [the act of consecrating]”.

    Blue was the colour of Saint Martin, so instead of swearing on god, you would swear on the canonisation of st. Martin, in a manner removed from the actual thing. Only English speakers use “sacré bleu” as a vaguely-french sounding thing.

    Saying sacré [person] makes sense somewhat, but you would use it like “there’s my boy, way to go!”, not as a “holy shit” exclamation.
