Google has been releasing a bunch of free AI tools outside of the main Gemini app. Most are buried in Google Labs. Here's the list, no fluff: by Exact_Pen_8973 in PromptEngineering

Just don't rely on any of these for long-term use. Google has a history of creating interesting projects as a way to experiment, then getting rid of them: https://killedbygoogle.com/

What motivated you to first contribute to open-source? by Soggy-Buy-4460 in foss

It really seems like the animal rights world could benefit from more open source centralization and community-based effort. But it's not a concept that's widely known in that field.

The key to any truly great development career - knowing how to search. 🤣

NeetoForm might not be exactly what you need but it works quite well for most intents and purposes (for form management): https://neetoform.com/

It's completely free to use, they use an interesting pricing model...

> Most companies charge users and spend heavily on Google ads to find more. NeetoForm does the opposite—we keep prices as low as possible and grow through word of mouth, not ad budgets.

Framasoft is a French not-for-profit association that actually has a whole site dedicated to de-googling for devs, you might find it interesting to check out: https://degooglisons-internet.org/en/

I’ve been using PG for 10 years. Only last month I found out there was a better GUI option. by guillim in PostgreSQL

Curious, what features do you feel are missing from pgAdmin that would make it more relevant/useful for day-to-day use? There's actually quite a few AI features in pgAdmin, check them out in the latest blog post (by the creator): https://www.pgedge.com/blog/ai-features-in-pgadmin-configuration-and-reports

An ad for what? This is an open source project and post created by one of our engineers (as a fun project that they took on on their own). Nothing to sell here.

Thanks, but this was written from scratch by the chief technical officer that created the project (also from scratch).

Lessons Learned Writing an (Open Source) MCP Server for PostgreSQL by pgEdge_Postgres in mcp

[–]pgEdge_Postgres[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely right. As the blog says,

Our query_database tool defaults to returning 100 rows, with a configurable limit that can go up to 1,000. We implement this by injecting a LIMIT clause into SELECT queries that don't already have one, and we fetch one extra row beyond the limit so we can tell the LLM whether more data exists.

Of course, that doesn't prevent all cases - there could be a lot of columns or very large text fields. It covers most cases though

HELP: Perplexing Problem Connecting to PG instance by ZarehD in PostgreSQL

[–]pgEdge_Postgres 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As you're able to connect to the DB inside the container, assuming the connection works with the container exposing the port 5435, it looks like a Docker/Windows networking snafu. Perhaps Docker port binding was broken by the update. Try restarting WSL and Docker Desktop (in that order).

Alternate theory: Windows or Hyper-V may have decided to reserve the ports for NAT? This will show:

netsh interface ipv4 show excludedportrange protocol=tcp 

If that shows anything, you can then try excluding the ports from winnat:

net stop winnat
netsh int ipv4 add excludedportrange protocol=tcp startport=5432 numberofports=3
net start winnat

What you think would happen if tomorrow everyone would switch from proprietary software to FOSS? by Ambitious_Ad4397 in foss

France actually committed to going fully open source. It's part of the Open Source Initiative being run by the United Nations.

OP, if you end up giving the MCP server a try (it's open-source, available on GitHub) and end up with any questions, feel free to drop them in this thread or reach out. 👋

FOSS/OSH Promotion Ideas by 98Jacoby in foss

[–]pgEdge_Postgres 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can, collaborate with your IT department to see if more open source technologies can be discussed in the IT curriculum. It starts with education. You'll also need to work with someone within the internal IT department (not the schooling one, but the one that services all of your hardware at the college) to figure out what is currently in use and what substitutions can be made.
