Sry maybe should've being more clear it was a sarcastic remark. The whole point of doing vector db search is to feed LLM with very targeted context so you can save $ on API calls to LLM.

"I recently spoke with the CTO of a popular AI note-taking app who told me something surprising: they spend twice as much on vector search as they do on OpenAI API calls. Think about that for a second. Running the retrieval layer costs

Is the simplest thing possible still the DB? Yes thats why google spent decent amount of resources building out spanner because for many biz domains even at hyper scale it's still the DB.

The stock does not carry voting rights and for good reason management could effectively vote itself more power and entrench control. There are many laws in place to prevent this.

I did not claim OrioleDB is about sharding. It was just an observation that Supabase is contributing to Postgres ecosystem through multiple projects.

I am a bit older than Python :). I imagine creator of clang and LLVM has fairly good grasp on making things performant. Think of Mojo as Rust with better ergonomics and more advanced compiler that you can mix and match with regular python.

by qaq 1y ago
Welp there is Mojo so looks like soon you will not really need to care that much. Prob will get better performance than C too.

Sure but thats pretty orthogonal to the above. Say had to create parser+mapper for a domain specific query language that than gets mapped to a number of SQL backends. Used cc to create custom test harness that can use SQLC style files to dr

In my experience they are great for test tooling. For actual tests after I have covered a number of cases it's very workable to tell it to identify gaps and edge cases and propose tests than I'd say I accept about 70% of it sugges

Another really nice use case building very sophisticated test tooling. Normally a company might not allocate enough resources to a task like that but with Claude Code it's a no brainer. Also can create very sophisticated mocks like say

Wonder what the context window is for Claude Code for internal users

Rust is pretty good target for Claude Code and the like. I don't write much Rust but I have to say of the langs I used Claude Code with Rust experience was among the best. If default async runtime was not work stealing I prob would use

The “every website must scale like Facebook” mindset is premature optimization driven by hypothetical future needs exactly what YAGNI advises against. But in your case, you’re investing time upfront to avoid a heavier dependency that alread
