I wish I could not just like something, but mark it as "Authoritative" or something like that, this post is basically it to a T.

Because what people actually want is a simple harness to test their use cases against all the frontier models and see which is the cheapest/best for the job. It's simple to say but hard to master doing well, and the important thin

The truth is that in decent workplaces we've figured out attacking people doesn't generally get what you want, unless what you want is to have a tantrum. Calling an idea nonsense is fine, calling it not profitable is great, and sa

There's an old phrase that says something like "Look around the table, if you cant see the mark you're it." - if you think you are not betting against the house on a gambling site, you're VERY it.

Of course that's a fair interpretation, I am saying there's some tension between mass surveillance and the fourth just because its "done in public" doesn't mean it automatically escapes scrutiny now or going forward

Yeah there was the steam link, but that was also way before 2019, so not sure what they could be referring to.

Oh they are still here, last time I had a good chuckle was the group arguing that The Pope Is A Democrat. "You know your brain is pickled when..."

I am so sorry that happened to you and your mom. We've become so tribal there's very little space for compassion for the vulnerable as we are positioned to fight tooth and nail.

You're right, this article is about the Trump administration going out of their way to pick political appointees who go out of their way to make us sicker in such a despicable way that even they cannot justify it. It's wild to me

Cause? We don't care. Effect? We all are sicker and closer to the grave because these ghouls are preying on us. We don't care about the justifications for murdering the collective for personal gain, its just treason to humanity pl

This is one of those things that makes me go insane at the last three companies I worked at and the reality is there's just an in group of people whose purchases are basically auto approved, and anyone below our out of this group might

Honestly it feels like someone whose used to internal metrics and management at Large Company made this.

When they "work" instead of "make a giant fucking mess" its because SWEs take shifts as SREs and the distinction is more about time in the mines and less about distinct job functions.

That's funny because I have worked with hundreds and hundreds of TSQL products and only those built mostly in the last century have extended attributes (documenting each object in the database itself) - its nice but clunky and few thin

Not just that, you can SELECT * FROM read_json('folder/*') and read an entire schematically consistent folder of json files, or parquet files, or basically anything it supports with its various functions. Duckdb is insanely u

Often used to be referred to as HTAP, and yeah in most data engineering its moving things from OLTP to OLAP forms, and OLAP pretty much always benefit from columnar compression for aggregations and rollups.

Honestly as someone whose super SQL focused and spends less time focusing on python I just can write generic SQL to transform things in memory to do whatever I want, its very helpful for that.

I dont think that's true, a lot of the database market that exists is basically "we're not oracle but we did a thing they can also do for much cheaper"

Amazing, have you checked the tariff situation? The war in Iran? Killing people in boats in South America? The personal slush fund? Knocking down the white house? Hiring and firing felons for the cabinet? The list goes on and on for things

Yeah man its just all the people who are jealous that are mad and no other reason. The billionares hands are clean, the climate is fine, the elections are great, there's nothing wrong, close your eyes, stuff your ears with wax, and kee

Externalize all the problems, but its "not cheating!" - its just making us all pay for your growth while you take advantage of the current structure of society and generally making things worse.
