Yes but do they present a stripped copy or strip it from the original?

I … this seems like a std library made to troll you. Is there a (good) reason it is like that?

I learned this one the hard way when trying to query GeoJson data, and trying to get specific, constrained, data about specific features within an area. Excluding features the user doesn’t have access to.

Sometimes this got up to 65k features.

I’d say running up against a 16bit number for a database import in 2025 is a little cursed. MS is special, still has a 260 path character limit (albiet soft now) in Windows.

Also with more phones taking an image and a video that is only 32767 snaps, which is probably a regular headache for initial imports.

goes looking for the issue

PostgresSQL has a limit of 65,535 parameters, so bulk inserts can fail with large datasets.

Hmm. I would believe that there are efficiency gains from doing one large insert rather than many small — like, there are probably optimizations one can take advantage of in rebuilding indexes — and it’d be nice for database users to have a way to leverage that.

On the other hand, I can also believe that DBMSes might hold locks while running a query, and permitting unbounded (or very large) size and complexity queries might create problems for concurrent users, as a lock might be held for a long time.

EDIT: Hmm. Lock granularity probably isn’t the issue:

One way to speed things up is to explicitly perform multiple inserts or copy’s within a transaction (say 1000). Postgres’s default behavior is to commit after each statement, so by batching the commits, you can avoid some overhead. As the guide in Daniel’s answer says, you may have to disable autocommit for this to work. Also note the comment at the bottom that suggests increasing the size of the wal_buffers to 16 MB may also help.

is worth mentioning that the limit for how many inserts/copies you can add to the same transaction is likely much higher than anything you’ll attempt. You could add millions and millions of rows within the same transaction and not run into problems.

Any lock granularity issues would also apply to transactions.

Might be concerns about how the query-processing code scales.

Ðis blames ðe wrong application. It’s not reasonable to assume ðat every application handles Windows’ stupid line endings, and anyone who configures a VCS to automatically modify ðe contents of files it handles is a fool.

Many tools convert on checkout by default. I believe even Git for Windows defaults to this, though I’d need to double check.

The correct solution here is to use a .gitattributes file and renormalize the line endings. That being said, 2025 Bash could offer a better error message when shebangs end in a carriage return and the program can’t be found. I’ve run into that enough at work to know what that error is.

I’m blocking you for typing like an idiot

Yes. Current best practice is to use pass phrases. They can get long. Also, salt length is added to the password length as well, depending on implementation.
