I totally agree. I think its because it lets my eyes get their bearings, like sensing the terrain.

im no expert and havent followed particularly closely, but my impression is that the screens are considerably better than quest or others. that it is much more capable at virtual screens. could be wrong

I sorta expected this to be the plan. go big to prove some tech and differentiate from the rest so you arent an also-ran, then figure out how to bring it to the masses. personally I dont care about the front screen at all, the eyes actually

I havent had a chance to really use it yet, but I know duckdb is in my future. Being able to connect it to all the different data sources to run analytical queries, plus the support for parquet.

qStudio looks very cool and im right in your target demo - and I hate to complain about free but just a bit of feedback: jar on mac is a lot of friction to be able to try it. I just spent about 5 minutes downloading and trying to get it to

I tend to agree, and we do this a lot actually. But it gets a little more complicated if you have several .env files. Would love to hear more about why dotenv is banned at your org though.

Where I have needed things like this before it is generally that there is a finite list of functions with some intersection of arguments, and the classification of which function (strategy) you need is what goes in the DB and the code lives

yeah exactly - write isnt generally the concern, its the read that makes or breaks a cache...

In western KY, west TN, northern MS, the long legged things with wings are gollywoppers or candleflies. Daddy longlegs are the spiders. It was a right of passage growing up to learn how to pick them up by one leg and the weight of their bod

I just dont get the “daily” weather records thing. Meteorologists talk about them constantly but theyre completely meaningless right? who cares what this particular day of the year highs were? its just noise! at least do it on a weekly reso

totally agreed, and its so common that some places like snowflake give you div0 and div0null to opt into just returning 0 or null in those cases

I have built several things like this over the years, and used other similar products like redash and metabase. This looks really nice, and has a lot of potential. Lots of nice features like "this is part of a dashboard, be careful whe

im no astrophysicist, but if you mean the anomolies that lead us to believe that there may be a planet 9, I dont think so. This dust would be assumed to be spread around evenly, and the anomalies that make us think there is another planet w

after decades of programming, lisp has always been that thing that intrigues me endlessly, but I haven't had a chance to actually wield it myself. but so many people whose opinions I respect love lisps, and not just for a little while.

I really need to write up my wishlist for PG into a blog post. There is so much to love about it, but it could be so much more. Would love to see some other table formats like column stores, better hash indexes, and tons of SQL improvements

So approximately 0% chance I could use this on AWS RDS or Aurora correct? Still, very impressive

I agree, Id almost love to see a "For All Mankind"-esque show about it - an alternative history where browsers ran on lisp. I could imagine that there would have been so many things that would be wildly different - not the least o

I'll add another thought here - what I really want many times is a custom LLM like GPT, but trained on a particular language or framework or topic. I would love to go to a website for a new language and be able to talk about its docume

When it comes to programming, I agree completely. The sweet spot for any use of LLMs is that you already know enough about the subject to verify the work - at least the output - and know enough how to describe in detail (ideally only salien
