Here is something cool that I did not realize postgres's substring()
could do.
Basically, it "knows what you mean" when you do substrings on dates and
numbers, doing an implicit cast for you. This is really nice if you
happen to be writing a generalized search system, as it makes the code
significantly simpler...
That's all, now back to our regularly scheduled mailing list.
