The Tolino Epos / Epos 2 is similar hardware, and at least the former comes about as root-friendly as they get.

You could replay the change feed from CRDB into Materialize and catch the timestamp (s) at which some query results pop out, using an incremental query in what is basically a linear search.

No, only when you get close to being on the other side of the planet by the time you reach the other spacecraft. Or take even longer, of course.

Meanwhile I'm wishing to have a local speaker setup that can hit 80 dB SNR... if you count all non-linearity-caused components as "noise". For comparison, your .1% THD is 30 dB. I explicitly don't care how the non-line

Scanning electron microscope, I assume. And it's basically getting samples prepped and operating the microscope stage and image controls (focus, contrast, etc.). Sounds like it quickly gets boring. I expect in less than one week.

Well, in principle, you can operate with single-digit-microseconds latency via CUDA at least, it just involves breaking free of the normal kernel grid approach and using dedicated pre-spawned threads that run as persistent hardware threads

The 980 Pro does way more with random reads of sufficient concurrency. The main issue is the 100us latency under load, so to get half a million IOPS, that's 50 concurrent requests. For maximum speed you need some batching I think.

Given that WD sells comparable TLC in their dual-port PCIe3 NVMe zoned namespace SSD with 10x the spec-sheet total drive writer, I'm not surprised. These commands don't unnecessarily copy data.

Well, yes, that falls under the second case: behavioral invariants of complex systems. And the reference for "sorting" could likely be a deterministic bogosort and certainly a primitive bubblesort. Even if you're just looking

A pure vacuum shuttle should be fine with getting launched and then wrapped with the insulation afterwards. Launching it empty is likely not really easier than launching it full, due to LH2's low density. But that's not important.
