Funny how it mentions USPS using GPUdb to "process complex queries and display 2D visualizations in the time it takes to load a Web page", yet every time I visit the post office, It takes at least 8 seconds after scanning a prepaid package for the package details to appear on the screen. They need to port that tech over to where it matters

Some departments are super high tech, while others are doing the exact same task.. but then with a twenty years old system.
- StavrosK 11y agoYou're just reading it wrong. They use it to "process complex queries and display 2D visualizations in 8 seconds".
