People who own public shares value return on investment, which in today's market is only loosely couple with fundamentals in many cases. It's hard to explain the value of a lot of public tech companies any other way. Rivian (RIVN)

It's not enough to be profitable (which they claimed to be in 2021). But even if they are profitable, it's unlikely they generate a lot of cash. For a secure future you also want a nice pot of cash to be able to make investments a

Alternative view: I'm glad to see 1Password obtain abundant financial backing. I use 1Password personally and at my employer. It's really good. I won't switch as long as they keep it that way. Seems as if they have enough mon

I really don't understand the hate on MongoDB. There are plenty of failures on PostgreSQL or any other database you care to name, especially if you go back far enough in time. Any installed database with less than 10 years of prod depl

That's cool! Nice pictures and a couple good videos of the Zeppelin in flight. I was a bit disappointed not to see any ads for beer on the side of the Zeppelins. Seemed like a marketing miss.

ClickHouse is an extremely fast SQL data warehouse that supports vectorized query execution, column storage, and efficient compression. It's also Apache 2.0 licensed and sets up on a dev laptop in about 60 seconds. The SQL is somewhat

I figured there must be Finns somewhere up there because one of the plows is named "Sisu." It means prolonged determination in the face of adversity. [0] It's a quality that Finns value very highly. [0] https://en.

It's also true that most governments have not been very clear about what they actually wanted to achieve or perhaps more accurately have changed the goals over time. There's a big difference between eliminating COVID vs coping, fo

Your poem does the subject justice. Just in case you have not seen it before, one who writes bad poetry is a poetaster , which the OED [0] defines as: A petty or paltry poet; a writer of poor or trashy verse; a rimester. I should v

Perhaps it's more useful then to consider what the value adds would be on top of your product. One obvious addition to build systems is security-related features like source code scanning. People are rightly a bit paranoid about that r

Vitriol against Jews has been around since the Middle Ages at the very least and pops up in almost every culture I can think of. The Nazi leadership were obsessed by it, just to name one obvious example. I'm generally very optimistic a

In that case it's not helpful to tie it to SQL. As my examples demonstrated, it's pretty useless for SQL database connectivity. If you are looking a general query mechanism it would make more sense to have something that looks lik

It seems as if the idea behind this proposal is to help out database folks. If so, that is misguided. POST is a better implementation than QUERY (or GET) at least for SQL databases. Here's why. In SQL this is a query: SELECT a, b,

Before taking any anatomically adverse actions, I would need a better argument than whataboutism. The fact that something is statistically less likely than other bad things does not make it good.

Not really--MS SQL Server was Windows only and took a while to grow. Oracle ran everywhere and was simply a better database by the mid-90s. (Previously Sybase was quite far ahead.) Oracle had row-level locking and MVCC at a time when Sybase

We store certain audit logs forever--or close to it--for exactly this reason. You don't know when you'll need the data to assess possible breaches and report back to users. (Which not coincidentally is a requirement of GDPR.) Edit

Count me in on Andy's side of the bet. The most useful features of graph databases will likely be subsumed into RDBMS just as features from JSON stores and object stores were before them. For example...One of the hits against RDBMS is

Thank you all for the very kind words about Altinity. We have always assumed that the ClickHouse market would be "crowded." By my count there are at least 7 cloud services based on ClickHouse. It's 8 if you include Firebolt,
