Do you use duckdb for real-time queries or just historical? You mentioned parquet but afaik it's not well suited for appending data.

Though it is not listed in the 33 affected services, we are seeing an issue communicating with S3 via a Storage Gateway.

This is one of the few features of Ruby I've never found a use for, and not fit lack of trying. I thought I remembered Matz once saying it would be removed, But I could be wrong. Maybe someone uses it.

A simulation has a nonzero chance of having exploits, and it's debatable whether it is in our best interest to discover them.

This is a very good thing! Too many languages introduce keywords out of convenience, but in the end that makes the grammar more complex.

I don't often get excited when I see a new language, but this is really neat! It's not just another lisp or forth variant, but seems to be in a class of its own (if anything it reminds me of smalltalk, but claims to not be object

This is true -- in the early 00's there was hardly any competition and we could take out both sides of a price cross with 100ms latency. Even after colocation we could still be competitive with over 4ms latency (plus the network). Tr

As I understand, the serving temperature of coffee does have an effect on perceived acidity (which is NOT the same as pH), though I don't understand the science behind it. Here is one paper that claims it is due to release of volatile

For a long time I figured that was just the right way to do multitasking. Hook the interrupt and pass control to the next task when you are done. I also figured most of what I wanted was popup TSRs anyway - how can a human possibly pay at

There was a Concurrent DOS, and there were quite a few others: topview, taskview, doubledos, vm/386, to name a few. I remember reading this article (p. 22) sparking my imagination as a kid: http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.co

I don't think that's universally true of all AI enhancement though. Information that is "missing" in one frame might be pulled in from a nearby frame. As others have pointed out, we are in the infancy of video enhancem

module_function is different in that it makes the method both a class method (i.e. an instance method on the singleton class) and a private instance method (so you can call the method with implicit self). Once upon a time a used this a lot

I used to prefer class << self because it is less repetition. Then I discovered this led to crashes in the GC in early ruby 2.x, so I switched for a while to class self.method. Now I write an inner module ClassMethods and use extend

I agree; moreover, I don't even understand why there's any controversy. A set of weights for a network trained using a particular document is a derivative work.

What I want is a DAG, but with better syntax than make. The closest I have come to ideal is a custom ninja build file generator, which is pretty simple. It's been easier for other people to maintain than make or even rake.
