Three Cases Against IF NOT EXISTS / IF EXISTS in Postgres DDL | Postgres AI

What is this about?

Many DDL statements in PostgreSQL support modified IF EXISTS / IF NOT EXISTS. For example:

 test=# create table if not exists mytable(); CREATE TABLE test=# drop table if exists mytable; DROP TABLE 

I recommend using `IF EXISTS` / `IF NOT EXISTS`…

Temporally Extending Existing Web Archive Collections for Longitudinal Analysis
The Environmental Governance and Data Initiative (EDGI) regularly crawled US federal environmental websites between 2016 and 2020 to capture changes between two presidential administrations. However, because it does not include the previous administration ending in 2008, the collection is unsuitable for answering our research question, Were the website terms deleted by the Trump administration (2017--2021) added by the Obama administration (2009--2017)? Thus, like many researchers using the Way…

Transfer using Fourier transform and minimal representation of $E_7$

Transfer using Fourier transform and minimal representation of $E_7$
In this paper, we study the Sakellaridis-Venkatesh conjecture for the rank-1 spherical variety $X=\text{Spin}_9\backslash F_4$ using an exceptional theta correspondence. We establish the correct transfer map satisfying relative character identities in this case and show that our transfer map agrees with the formula in (Sakellaridis, 2021). Moreover, we show how our techniques lead to a characterization of $X$-relatively cuspidal representations.

A Deep Dive into X’s Community Notes: An Analysis of English and Spanish Contributions Between 2021 and 2025
The Digital Democracy Institute of the Americas (DDIA) examined how X’s Community Notes system functions across English and Spanish, drawing from over 1.76 million notes submitted globally between 2021 and 2025. The report explores submission and publication dynamics, contributor behavior, and systemic challenges like transparency gaps and rating backlogs. As community-driven content moderation becomes a global model, this report sheds light on its potential, and limitations, for building a h…
