Nice. I would definitely consider making it locale sensitive.

Yes, one of the other comments alluded to this as well. I am also in this boat, so other than bizarroland LLM ingest stuff, I'll probably work on this next. Having never written a mobile app, I'm sure it'll be fine.

Probably right. My brain is probably stuck in old-man spreadsheet land and I did not explore any new horizons that might have obviated micasa. That said, I also didn't want to invest a bunch of time in developing a domain specific app

I often find myself wanting answers to questions that require linking data, and I also want to codify those links somehow, so a single-file, row-oriented database seemed like the appropriate way to get that. You might actually be able to ge

This is super interesting. I do have a GitHub issue for LLM-powered data entry: "Add a landscaping project to do the backyard. Still ideating, thinking a budget of $40k."

I've honestly never explored HA. Is there a world where HA obviates micasa. That seems like a win, at least in terms of not having yet another piece of software duplicating an existing thing.

100% on the phone app. Maybe the web app is the phone app? Dunno. Being able to enter information as close to receiving as possible seems key actually. I'll probably poke on this soon.

One of my first thoughts after getting a working prototype was: "Doesn't the car battery need to be replaced?" So, yeah. This would obviously be called micarro.

I definitely waffled a bit on multi-property support, but decided against it for initial launch. Multi-property avid terminal users seems even more niche!

I'm not sure if you're asking whether micasa should use a text file as its format, or if you're suggesting that a text file can be a substitute for micasa.

Maybe it's that TUIs feel manageable with an agent. They can be well scoped without a ton of effort, which at least for me makes me a tiny bit more comfortable letting them write code.

I hadn't considered theming it differently, though in theory it should be adaptive to light versus dark terminals. I only use dark terminals and I couldn't be bothered to test that before there were any users, so if it doesn'

Pandas support as input and output isn't going anywhere. People can continue to bring their pandas DataFrames to Ibis and run Ibis expressions against them. > pandas made sense and might still make sense for many, especially who are

Pandas compatibility as input and output will remain. Not sure what's in doubt here.

> Ibis announcing they’re dropping support for pandas would be like Astro announcing they’re dropping support for React. This is extremely misleading and a false analogy. Read the blog post. If you still come to the same conclusion after

Ibis is not an ORM. It has no opinion of or knowledge about your data model, or relationships between tables and their columns. Check out SQLAlchemy's ORM ( https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/20/orm/ ) for wha

No idea who the person is who defended what I said. If they're a co-worker of mine, I don't know who it is. The original purpose of my comment was to, in a light-hearted way, point out redundant information, not to incite a flame

Sounds like a solid plan. No reason to incur switching costs if things are working! I think you're misunderstanding what "removing pandas" means. You can still compute on DataFrames, it'll just be with something other th

I've been working with pencil and paper recently. Thinking about starting an Ibis backend for it.

I'll also suggest inscribing stone tablets with a chunked version of your computation and distributing the described chunked computation to your friends, and then gathering the tablets and finishing up the compute. It's scalable t

On the contrary, very related to that pandas!

As a joke, I wrote an Ibis backend ( https://github.com/cpcloud/ibish ) that processes expressions using shell commands strung together with named pipes. It supports joins using the coreutils join command, projections, f

Segmentation violations are often the result of different underlying problems, one of which can be running out of memory. We (the Ibis team) have opened related issues and the usual response is to not use streaming until it's ready, or

On the flip side, Ibises (Ibisii ??) have been around for years and aren't going anywhere.

Multi-indexes definitely have their place. In fact, I got involved in pandas development in 2013 as part of some work I was doing in graduate school, and I was a heavy user of multi-indexed columns. I loved them. Over time, and after workin

In my experience, Polars streaming runs out of memory at much smaller scales than both DuckDB and DataFusion and tends to use much more memory for the same workload when it doesn't outright segfault. Polars is faster than those two onc
