In case people skim over this. One of the nice things about Erlang / Elixir is that the tcp/udp libraries are well integrated with the actor-model. Incoming data can just be another message. You can flood your process this way and

I get the point that everyone is making, including the point that you're trying to make. But if I just take your question at face value, isn't the answer simple: from billions in profit they make per quarter.

I don't think it's reasonable to imply that fuel is more perishable than meat. Crude oil doesn't go bad. Besides, the [non]-perishability of either doesn't see to really be a factor in either, does it? Maybe the closest

Yes, pgtrgm is what we used. Right now, we're using it for indexing very small data, e.g. filtering users by name/email/phone. Our solution is to store our own ngram-ish stuff into a _search table. Given a user: id: 1 n

What Vietnam has done is pretty well documented (1). As a single example, schools were closed in early February. It would be nice to have 1 fact or even a made-up-fact that the numbers are screwed aside from _they have to be_. But even if w

The enterprise license gets you incremental backups. cockroach dump is similar to pg_dump, but it's worth pointing out that pg offers a lot more than just pg_dump. Things like pg_basebackup (and accompanying tools) and various replicat

No, there isn't. The only option is the dump command (full backup). But it's slow. And the restore is unreasonably slow. If you have a medium-sized database, you'll likely have to accept uncomfortably large (possibly even dis

Not colocated, but in the US, you can find a dual EPYC 7742 (64 cores) with 512GB of ram (with ssds, hdds, and bandwidth included) for $1000/m. This should absolutely demolish the c5.12xlarge, especially if you need any disk IO or band

Views also work. I don't understand what you mean re "access". RLS is what removes access to those rows, that's the point of RLS. In postgresql, anyways, superusers aren't subject to RLS and the table owner, by defa
