Nice! You need to get the sugar cubes and use way too many for maximum authenticity :-) I myself am partial to Çaykur's Hemşin tea, by the way. Mehmet Efendi is good if you're walking by the shop (smells amazing) but the dirty sec

Wow, that's amazing and a bit funny - so heartwarming to me that it's a success!

As a local, pretty impressed with the listed items in Turkey! Still, the rabbithole goes much deeper. I highly recommend The Turkish Cookbook by Musa Dağdeviren, a food anthropologist of sorts who spent his formative years traveling the cou

OP’s remark just reminded me of something more general not necessarily in that remark that really has been bothering me. It wasn't very clear that I was going off on a tangent, and I tried to keep it lighthearted in a hamfisted way tha

My contention is that I make a good faith effort to be open to the idea that others know or have experienced things or might have some thoughts that I haven’t considered adequately. And that I think this concept would be helpful to others h

Agreed fully. I'll admit I also had a chuckle at the expense of the parent post here (I'm sorry - the rest of this post isn't meant to pick on you or describe you specifically). I think this there is a lesson in here somewher

Perhaps it's also time for a new generation of antitrust protections with our newer, expanded understanding about how companies undermine competition: oligpolies that are technically not monopolies, price collusion (rather than explici

Oh interesting - I missed that tidbit! So with that and row groups and the metadata (assuming you have one metadata block per column in each row group) I think you get to full seekability, right?

Even with an OLAP use case, you're most often not scanning every row in the database if you even have a single where clause / conditional filter which is almost always. You need to have some level of locality and if your format do

The core idea with these compressed columnar "big data" formats is that they minimize storage accesses. Nothing else really matters as much. If you're gonna have to load a sizable chunk of the file to get to the bits you need

This exists. Here are the prevailing wage cutoffs for each experience level (calculated by the BLS) they use for "software developers" in SF, for example: https://www.flcdatacenter.com/OesQuickResults.aspx?code=15

SUM_TIMER_WAIT from performance_schema.events_stages_summary_global_by_event_name does not track memory allocations - it's a counter for time spent on that query stage.

Oh wow, it's a tiny world! Glad to hear it worked out and you're more than welcome! :-)

In a similar vein, here is my very similar rant and a teeny tiny sqlalchemy plugin that deals with the grossness a bit if you're using python. Not entirely sure if it still works, was floored to realize I'd written this a decade a

Thanks! :-) It's been brewing in my head for a while and I've written out shorter snippets of similar ideas over the course of the past few years. I've taken some liberties and likely made some mistakes, but it's aping t

This is so cool! Much nicer than what we had before. My first Google Summer of Code project (aka my first internship ever during my freshman year of college) was implementing some of the animations (like Grow) in KDE Plasma. I'm not su

Interestingly coincidental timing with Jonathan Hoefler posting about a trick to compress glyph size by omitting a block and let the eye complete it ... OK, it's taller but I think it looks quite pretty: https://www.instagra

This is neat - I found a random website [0] where someone binary patched C&C Tiberian Sun to have IPv6 support, just because. It feels so much like the old web I miss. For some reason all this makes me reminisce about Fravia's Sear

That sounds awesome! I can't seem to find it right now but I'm pretty sure I started out with one of the samples, I think memtrace_x86.c and that required only minimal modification to get it to do most of what I needed, minus elim

Wait this is really cool!! Reminds me of a thing I did a few years ago that I never completed (sigh) which was about visualizing access patterns in database storage engines. Here's the report with pics and videos if that sounds interes

I can relate sometimes. Doing what you're doing, but harder doesn't seem to help. Some things that help / helped me: 1. Some serious self-reflection about what the problem is: What are the things you do vs don't enjoy ab
