PostgreSQL maintainer Simon Riggs has died in a small airplane crash, on Tuesday.
For those who didn't know Simon, he's responsible for PostgreSQL Binary Replication and many big data features. He and I worked together at Greenplum 2006-2008. Postgres would not be the world-leading DB it is today if it weren't for him.

A huge yet underappreciated impact on the modern world. People don’t realize how much work goes on behind the scenes to bring those apps/websites to life.
Thank you for all your contributions Simon. Rest in peace sir.

SELECT * FROM real_influencers WHERE name = ‘Simon Riggs’;
Shouldn’t that be:
DELETE FROM real_influencers WHERE name = 'Simon Riggs';
