I don't know what backup tools you have in mind... But since a SQLite database is a single file (modulo write ahead journal and whatnot), making whatever you need is trivial.

I'm pretty confident that it could be a good improvement over the currently used spring models. Give me three high-distance options that ML thought were good, I'll probably choose one over laying out manually.

It's objectively awful... But when you step back a tiny bit, that doesn't matter. What matters is the inter-organizational community it achieved. If these organizations wanted to continue, they could come up with a negotiation tec

This is wildly inaccurate. Senior in Google is 350k, in Microsoft 260k, in Amazon 340k. "Early mid-career" is also wildly inaccurate. While the ladder in Google goes up to 11, 90% of people never exceed 5 (senior). It's also

Near the beginning of the pandemics I've seen percentages of confirmed infections presenting symptoms X weeks after diagnosis. It seemed to not die off. But it both topped at a not too long interval and didn't see that many cases

Saying that "job market was killed by people realizing they can subside off benefits" simply ignores the reality. A small but non-trivial percentage of people hold jobs only as much as they need to get the benefits back. Each such

The scattered anecdotes are scary: brain fog that's bad enough to prevent you from doing any mechanical or intellectual labour. The initial data was also scary, but I never saw anything with a particularly convincing survey size.

These things correlate though. Sure, sometimes we get misses like child car seats, but more often than not outrage-induced regulation manages to make things better.

Uh, hospitals don't get short of furniture anywhere in the world. Most places don't even get short of equipment. It's almost always staff that is the limiting factor.

How does sun send its electric energy to a 70m wide region of the cloud? Aurora borealis is 80-1000km across.

Have you ever seen a thunderstorm averaging five lightnings per second? I haven't. But I have seen plenty with a couple lightnings per minute - right in the ballpark of the power of a small wind farm beneath.

From learning point of view? Unanimously do something with it. Or at least see some examples of someone doing something with it to make you care about what you just learned. It's very high to remember a fact, as in commit to long-term

Well, it wouldn't prevent that one user who requested the feature. But other users would be made aware that their logging facility now does surprising new things.

No. Ignore currencies, which are just our best approximation of a reasonable measure of wealth. The problem is that over the course of pandemic the world has produced less actual wealth. Unless we somehow reduced waste, we should now be abl

SQLite is not a high throughput database. Trying to work around this with cool tech is not likely to make it better than a boring solution, like using a high throughput database in the first place.

That's cyanide. That is also the most painful thing ever, but at least quick.
