What I don't understand is how the top reservoir is floating when filled with brine. Are the small floaters enough to hold it up? Otherwise I love the fact that's simple. Simplicity scales. It's also salt water, so assuming t

I understand the argument but the language used for uv (rust) and python don't have the same goal. Python aims to be simple, not particularly fast (though it is getting faster) I don't see a problem with that. Pick the language ad

yeah same, I'm in the process of migrating so I have both google photo and immich, and honestly immich is just as good. I actually find the semantic search of immich slightly better.

regarding how long the ingestion should take to implement, I'm going to say: it depends! It depends on how complex the models are, because now you need to parse your model before inserting them. Which means you need tables to be in the
