What’s so exciting about Postgres?

Your inference of my intentions, as an intermediary to deflect from the facts presented, is proof that you're trying really hard to be edgy. Akin to a strawquant.

The people behind javascript provided the object notation technology that has been absorbed by Postgres. It is not only being used to exchange data (as a standard text field would be used), but can be used to QUERY data. The database is aware not only of the JSON text string representation, but of the object itself.

I’m not being edgy you took a data format and pretended it was a refutation when it wasn’t and isn’t.

What does the JS in JSON stand for? Where did it come from?

What does that have to do with JSON being an intermediary language and not the actual persistence part? What part of that don’t you understand and I’ll try to explain it for you

I understand perfectly the difference between a system and a format. You either don’t or you’re trolling (and dishing out ad hominems to boot.). Reddit would be more suitable to your posting style, we come here with a higher expectation of them being actual discourse and intellectual honesty.
