Boriss Mejias spoke in the PostgreSQL devroom at FOSDEM 2021 in defence of a data type most people are told to avoid, comparing enums against text-with-a-check-constraint and a foreign key on insert, read and update. Video2Any stepped through the 29-minute recording and kept 66 clean frames, one per slide change, and set aside 9 more that showed only the speaker's camera during the Q&A at the end. The comparison tables in this deck are the kind of thing worth having as a document rather than a video: you come back to a table, and scrubbing a recording to find one again is the reason this page exists. Every image below is real output, extracted in a browser tab with nothing uploaded.

FAQ

Are these the real slides from the session?
Yes — frames from the published recording, one per slide change. FOSDEM publishes its 2021 recordings under CC BY 2.0 BE, which permits reuse with credit; we credit FOSDEM and link the original file above.
Can I get the comparison tables as something searchable?
Not inside the deck. Each slide is the frame as it appeared, so the table is a picture rather than text — the transcript on this page is what search works on.
Can I do this with a talk I recorded?
Yes. The first 30 minutes of every video are free. Drop it in and Video2Any detects each slide and exports an .pptx or PDF in your browser, with nothing uploaded.
