important wrinkle: in SF, leases are (can be) long term arrangements, i.e. limited annual rent increases and very hard to evict. Landlords won't drop prices if it locks them into a bad economic situation, or even if they perceive that

yes storage is "that cheap" because we're talking *relative* costs, i.e. 18TB for $250 is half the cost/bit of 9TB for $250... https://jcmit.net/disk2015.htm

That said, pgvector could be used for applications that "ship" PostgreSQL with themselves, e.g. adding semantic search to apps like Zulip.

Guys - you're painting the bike shed here. Whether it's a disk or the tape cartridge, if storage costs halve then that means half of everything else (devices, machines, cages, machine rooms, data centers, etc) to store the same by

Given exponentially decreasing costs for storage, there's an argument for archiving everything of potential value and low liability risk. Ditto for store-width and testing recoverability.

Does Pulsar support terminals over SSH? The reason I (only) use emacs and vi, is that they're available *everywhere* and work in literally every environment.
