I disagree w/ the premise of the article. It's oddly assuming that leaders of these huge tech companies have no knowledge that the pandemic would end. Effectively calling them dumb. It's just wording. I think reworded in the

it's obviously based on the data size itself, memory available etc etc. Pretty clearly people ran the exact same test, fill a table with a bunch of empty/meaningless data and see where performance degrades - then write a catchy he

The concept isn't bad. It is true you should be able to answer these questions in 15-30s. It just can't do do what humans do. Key Differences - Follow up questions will dig into specifics of your business/model (this can'

Looking at the tradeoffs of CO2, r744, I don't see it gaining adoption. Quick search shows 10x pressure vs r134a. That pressure difference is significant on size, weight, maintenance of parts. Also at non-low ambient temps it's ap
