I hear Mario Party has been pretty popular recently.

It wasn't "no human contact", it was "no contact with other employees/coworkers". Big difference.

Yup, that was all accounted for in what I read (well over a year ago, can't find the link...sorry). It was also for a northern climate country (possibly the UK, maybe Norway, memory is failing me here), so it was not "best case&qu

A heat pump can be well over 100% efficient based on the energy input for equivalent resistive / chemical heating. E.g. your heat pump could use 100w of electricity to move 400w worth of heat (if generated resistively) from the outside

And they are calling it 'terrorism'. What a joke our country is.

Right. I've had that same problem when trying to build a new app with Claude / 4o. I essentially have to go through the docs myself so I understand the framework structure enough to write up an outline for the llm to follow when d

At a lot of companies, there are still full teams of people slinging t-sql or pl/SQL all day long to support their organization. Not DBAs, just developers who primarily work inside the database system their entire life.

Thanks for the write-up with some actual numbers (though a contrived workload). Crazy how low the pause times for ZGC are now. I hope Valhalla can help alleviate some of the GC pressure in general as libraries/frameworks/programs

That's a huge assumption without knowing anything about me.

Yeah, let's go back to heavily armed European countries at each other's necks every couple decades... The US benefits immensely from having a stable and not terribly militaristic trading bloc.

I tried to help out on the DB side of SO for a little bit, but gave up due to the culture. Not worth my time.

Agreed, wish there was some place to aggregate what people consider "good" conversations they had that doesn't just suck up the data for themselves and lock it away.

Sucks how much extra effort it is, while paying, to get the same convince of pirating.

If I'm not mistaken, larger keys require more qbits in a machine to all be coherent together to be able to break it. So it would be a slight increase in complexity, but if we are able to build a machine with enough qbits to crack 1024

You probably missed it in another subthread, but that limit was a joke on their website, not an actual limit.

Yeah, I really don't think the overlap is as much as you imagine. At least in /r/localllama and the discord servers I frequent, the vast majority of users are interested in one or the other primarily, and may just dabble with

Glad you are so open with being a bigot, Paul. Really good stuff.

That's a big assumption.

I'm not against using tech's natural advantages with scale - that's one of the beauties of software. My concern is with the disproportionate resources being poured into hyper-growth ventures, where the vast majority fail afte

Which for certain types of applications ORMs absolutely have their use.

Agreed with the other person. It's a great database. I wouldn't choose it for a startup over Postgres, but it is extremely capable.

Not OP, but I've just gotten really used to verifying implementation details. Yup, those subtle ones really suck. It's pretty much just up to intuition if something in the response (or your followups) rings the `not quite right` b

I'm sorry, I think you mispronounced market segmentation... This is Apple we're talking about.

That only works until The benchmark questions and answers are public. Which they necessarily would be in this case.

TOAST compression is likely your best option for that data. You may need to lower the data size threshold for toast for that column.

There are plenty of CLI applications that need to be low overhead. E.g. postgres can call a wal archive command for backup purposes, and I specifically remember work being done to reduce the startup overhead for backup tools like pgbackrest

If say it was only about 15 years ago that the Postgres is slow stuff started dying off. Right around 2010.

Hell, I went straight for 20k/mo (average) with my SaaS. The key is providing a good value proposition. My software would save my customers more than they would spend on it yearly, while outsourcing $50-300k/year in salary worth o

That's simply not true when you see the owners of these forums throwing in the towel because of the compliance requirements.
