## AI overview

The article discusses participating in online Postgres community events in 2020, including Postgres Vision and an online interview. It also introduces the author's view that SQL queries implement part of an application's business logic and considers how that logic should be divided between SQL and the backend.

## Source excerpt

Among a lot of other changes, the year 2020 brings Online Conferences to us. In the Postgres community too we now record our talks at home and send a video file to be playedto a virtual audience, and sometimes shared later in a platform online. So this year I did participate in Postgres Vision 2020 where I did deliver a talk about The Art of PostgreSQL. This a talk all about the book that I have written and self-publish at The Art of PostgreSQL: learn how to turn thousands of lines of code into simple SQL queries.
