Thom Brown writes Thom's memory leak, a personal blog at thombrown.blogspot.com about programming and data. Since 2013, 3 different Hacker News readers have linked it 3 times, most often “Commodore 64 Basic for PostgreSQL”. It is still writing: the last post was on 2026-07-03, and you can follow it by feed.
Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
Only one bare link to a 2026 post, in a thread about whether another database is needed. The comment says nothing about the writing, and the truncated URL suggests a post about loading data.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
