I also use UUID's everywhere - primarily due to concurrency requirements - but I ended up writing a bunch of functions (`MACRO`s) that lookup UUIDs and join them to other tables where needed, instead of using VIEWs or JSON queries. I&#

I've been looking for a service just like searchcode, to try and track down obscure source code. All the best, hope it can be sustainable for you.

I've been learning Postgres and SQL on the job for the first time over the last six months - I can confirm I've learnt all of these the hard way! I'd also recommend reading up on the awesome pg statistics tables, and leverage

Definitely checking this out today! I use postgres for ~30 GB of machine learning data (object detection) and have a couple workflows which go through the Postgres->Parquet->DuckDB processing route. A couple questions, if you have tim

A lotta negativity in here... My immediate reaction was "fuck yeah I always wanted to host OSM but I couldn't figure out how last time". thanks dude :)

I couldn't really tell you why, but I wrangle many gigabytes of UUID-keyed data for work, and adding a BRIM index yesterday sped things up by 400%. Just my two cents!

Hell yes, I just spent half a day theming my Linux box with Chicago95! I've already got Space Cadet pinball from Flatpak, and now I've got Solitaire - nostalgia levels are off the charts right now B-)

keen to see it! I'll definitely give it a whirl using ReRun as a front-end, it looks like it would pair really nicely.

There is a huge talent pool of student engineers who compete in the University Rover Challenge each year, who would love to have access to this. Would you guys consider a non-commercial, student-only free tier? It would be a great way for y

Hell yes, this looks awesome - do you see a future where Gazebo uses this as a physics engine? Also just in case you were unaware, the name 'nox' refers to a popular Python testing framework... so if you were to release 'nox-
