It's the tech bro mentality and low interest rates that got us here. It's not enough for a company to just make something good on an open standard. No, they have to go with the enshitification/juicero model and blitzscale the

I work for a big tech and your solution has already been built. The on-call software uses an LLM to summarize the tickets, and a vector db to find troubleshooting guides and similar tickets.

I'm curious about S3 tables. Azure has had tables in their storage account product for years. What are the differences?

It seems to be priced about the same as the BYD Dolphin with much less range. The surely low sales numbers will make it the 'Volkswagen ID. NO1'

It's always interesting when you find out others are doing some obscure idea. Last year I was scraping supermarket data from a small country and I ended up setting up a discord with a half dozen of us sharing tips.

As a user of Kusto query language in Azure I can highly recommend pipe syntax. The autocomplete is very good.

They seem to park so many domains it wouldn't surprise me if they park new domains based on domain searches. There is a clear motivation there so I always run whois in the terminal instead of searching on any domain registrar with the

According to the post HA uses sqlite for sensor data. Why not use a temporal database like InfluxDB, Prometheus, VictoriaMetrics etc?

Looks like Cloudflare are still sending out the airport locations and hit status on the response headers. Maybe I'm missing something but it seems like if you had a large VPN network you could run a distributed query to figure out whic

It's generally called an arms race. When SUVs came along and now everybody has a big car because everybody else has a big car that's an arms race.

The inconvenient truth is that there isn't enough pie to go around. Sometimes the wind or solar isn't generating. A carbon tax would force people to cut down their footprint and be more selective about how they use carbon and at t

He has a lot of good points but I can't help but find irony in companies like Aspen and Patagonia being part of the problem. How many people travel to a tourist destination without flying or driving a car? How many of Patagonia's

I know the feeling. I managed 9 months scraping supermarket data before I gave up mostly because a few other people were doing it and I was short on time.

It's due to fashion. New tech trend comes in and companies want to use it to differentiate their products as newer so they seem more valuable. When the tech ages and becomes just another commodity the usage settles down. When blue LEDs

I like SQL but I think it's time for the big players like MySQL, MSSQL, Postgres etc to start using FROM-first and piping syntax. I've had the pleasure of using Kusto query language and it's a huge leap forward in DX.
