We’re going through the transition at the moment - tried to find info online but decided the only route was to try it on a real machine to see what works / doesn’t work. Have built an Ubuntu 18 environment running through UTM ( https:&

If you use iPython you can enable auto reloading for all your sessions. It works really well - I've been using it for years. You need to know the limitations, but on the whole it give huge performance gains when I'm coding. To ena

That approach works well for regressions. I’ve used it myself to track down a bug in chrome and, as you say, having no idea how to fix it, I could direct it to the author via the bug tracker. In my case it was fixed within a couple of days.

Ha, snap. Makes sense that it looks at the dirtiness of the visibility_map while planning.
725.
by aidos 6y ago
I believe it can speed it up by using index only scans along with the visibility_map which effectively tells it which entries are “current” in more broad strokes.

The default limit on Postgres is 100, so you need to ask yourself why you’re exhausting all those connections. The issue isn’t the dB, it’s the code making the connections. Advice: don’t fret scaling issues, get your fundamentals right

In isolation, maybe it doesn’t, but reading through the comment history, the site will be better without these contributions.

I’ve seen a few data disasters in my time but I think this takes the cake. It’s a good reminder of why you just need to prioritise the sort of work that has no immediate payoff.

Sql queries never really adhere to that simple Big O analysis though. Sure, if you had zero indexes so every operation was nested sequential scans, then it’s Cartesian, but that’s never the case. Most often you get really fast index lookups

Looks like it’s Postgres protocol compatible rather than running as a Postgres extension? I’ve been keeping an eye on work that’s been done to support this internally in Postgres. Looks like it’s still moving along. I guess it’s a pretty tr

Could be that there’s some tell tale in the logs. We recently fixed a bug with incomplete requests by noticing in nginx logs that the size of the headers + the size of the body was the size of the buffer of a linux socket.

The Bowline is definitely the only knot to learn if you have to choose just one. There are 3 (that I know of) different ways to tie it that are worth learning as a next step. One of them lets you prepare it so you can quickly tie it around

I love this website. Having spent a bit of time on yachts I already had a reasonable grounding, but it’s easy to forget knots you’re not using. For a while I found the easiest way to get to sleep each night was to try to picture how to tie

When you’re doing dynamic structure in relational dbs (traditionally) options include storing a wide row with all the data types and you choose which column to use, or storing as lowest common denominator (string) and casting in and out at

I think we can both agree on that. People have reacted somewhat negatively to my original comment, but I suspect cookie banners have done more harm than good on balance. It’s one of those things where the spirit of the movement got lost. We

I'm totally good with there being laws about this as I too want to see less tracking and data sharing. But the implementation is terrible and anybody who thinks that it's fixed anything at all is just kidding themselves. I would r

Ha! Following your analogy ... then you just discover that everyone’s teeth are purple and you’re struggling to concentrate on what they’re saying because it’s distracting. Meanwhile, nobody’s teeth got any cleaner. It’s really just theatre

Not that I voted for this, but what’s done is done. And now that it is, I’d personally like to take the wins where we can get them. Hoping we see the light, and the blight that is the cookie law goes the way of the dodos.

The limitation with inline styles is that the moment you need a single variation (hover, responsive, dark mode) you’re forced to move the styles somewhere else. Tailwind solves that, and a bunch of other stuff.

You can use their classes to build other class, yes.

Still not sure I buy it. I can extract a document representation from my relational data that matches your document store at read time. I can effectively choose my schema when I read, there’s no need to rewrite it at the storage layer.

That’s stored ptocedures you’re talking about - I think. We’re talking about prepared statements.

Can you explain this more? I’d argue that if you don’t know the patterns you’ll use to access your data, relational is the way to go. That’s the point, no? Flexibility over how you access your data. With an object store you mostly have to h

I was involved in those original discussions and it was just the standard “how to manipulate sql” discussion. Prepared statements don’t help you here, right? My understanding is that they’re purely for performance as the parser doesn’t need

I’ve used it by running it memory from python as a temporary dB. In my case it was just for simple bounds checking queries but it worked incredibly well. I’m not sure about trying to get 30fps out of it though - might be a stretch!

It’s the first Mac in years that’s got me wanting to replace my 2015 MacBook. Does anyone have experience of Pro vs Air as a dev machine. I’m assuming the pro is an around better machine, but that touchbar....

Yeah it’s a real problem for the industry. Revit has become this “standard” but its totally closed without running their systems. Something really needs to give.
