This is factually incorrect. I fly through Schiphol 10+ times a year and never had to take off my shoes. Neither did I in Paris, Berlin, Barcelona, London, Copenhagen, so "it's not a European thing" either. I did see office

Note that the underlying data store where a lot of the byte churning happens is RocksDB, written in C++. Also the Go/C++ interface in CockroachDB is coarse to reduce overheads.

No. ISO C has standardized "float" to 32 bits and "double" to 64 bits. The one that's platform-dependent is "long double".

Hi can you tell us a bit more about this SQL-related project? I'm rather practically interested.

The tests that Aphyr describes are ran regularly, to prevent regressions.

Not yet. On the roadmap though.

I wrote the rfc for this "effort": there will be an IR in CockroachDB, just not right now. It's a lot of work and we're not going to do this in one go.

This matrix uses period-sensitive knowledge as milestones and is esentially focused on knowledge (how much one knows) as opposed to proficiency in the programming activities. I found it more useful to evaluate competency based on activities

What about the `seek` argument which skips over some blocks at the beginning but still allocates them (unix "holes")? Also note that there are still unix systems out there which do not support byte-level granularity of access to b

I think the challenge is to find a way to tranform the name so that it's still legible by a human. Like transform "Mister" to "Mr"

Do you plan to make it work with CockroachDB?

It's a combination of bandwidth and latency. Latency in particular feels slow; you need to copy the new binary on every node, then issue commands over ssh to scrub any previous leftover files, initialize a cluster, run the tests, stop

My guess is that the discussion being referred to is this one: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/cockroach-db/7w463Bv-Mbk/d... Not sure where the vitriol is coming from though.
