schestowitz[TR2]It ain’t just Alvind. It’s Kavanaugh tooSep 28 10:57
schestowitz[TR2]I know a lot of criticism goes to AlvindSep 28 10:57
schestowitz[TR2]And rightfully so. However as Chairman and CEO he’s just a puppet of the Investors. I know he’s rude and obnoxious, however let’s not forget about the CFO Jim KavanaughSep 28 10:57
schestowitz[TR2]He’s a number cruncher. He’s the one probably driving the RA’s . Employees to him are just numbers and names on an excel spreadsheet. He needs to make Alvind look good to the investors so that he can get his 20 million dollar bonus and grotesque stock options and other elements of compensationSep 28 10:57
schestowitz[TR2]Kavanaugh wants people especially in Operations to “Add more skills” while they constantly worry about if they are next.Sep 28 10:57

schestowitz[TR2]Kavanaugh has no skills whatsoever, but he's great when it comes to laying off hardworking US employees and licking Alvind's boots.Sep 28 10:58
schestowitz[TR2]You have to wonder if Alvind is going to nominate him for an award from the India PM, Modi as well. The award would be a swift kick up Kavanaugh's backside of course for not hiring more Indians @IBM.Sep 28 10:58

schestowitz[TR2]                                        <p>One of PostgreSQL 17’s standout features is the overhaul of the vacuum process’s memory management. This critical operation now consumes up to 20 times less memory, resulting in faster vacuum speeds and reduced shared resource use. Consequently, more resources are available for your workload. </p>Sep 28 14:42
