i’d want a feature to only do this for pages i mark as interesting (so, a bookmarked page i guess). i may not care to recall the match summary of as milan vs napoli. i have rafts of bookmarked pages, but i don’t know which of the 45 postgre

a more intuitive search as well. i am going to fly to paris in april and wanted to know what time it would be in denver when i landed. chatgpt was better-suited to the task than a multi-step duckbingle search

I've found that they offer poor solutions but good starting points. I learned a lot more about using Leaflet and d3 for a personal project because GPT4-Turbo gave me a solution, which I took as a starting point. It gave me insight that

weirdly, this was the last bit of "value" my family and i had received from subscribing to amazon prime. based on how this all shakes out, it's likely the last year of the subscription for me. i purchased it for man in the hi

agreed. and sqlite specifically. i’d really like to see an authoritative resource that shows me how to use sql and relational algebra to do some basic and intermediate data analysis. i can find like 8 different ways to calculate skew and ku

i agree with the sentiment of your comment, but the pervasive RTO narrative from c-levels is not about restoring their employees' collective, holistic health. rather, it's couched in a narrative of productivity and community, the

statistically (from a certain perspective) i agree with you but cold statistics dont explain the reality of existing as a human being. there's something about flying in a thin, aluminum/composite tube with 100-300 other "soul

it does seem like there's been an uptick in "incidents" involving boeing planes, in particular, and maybe that's because of the fallout of the merger between boeing and md ( https://qz.com/1776080/how

more Enron's what? i try not to be pedantic but your comment (and follow-up) seem to deliberately miss the point of the parent post.

yes it is quite annoying. i would love to see a CH dedicated post to extol its virtues and not a piggyback “us too” comment on a duckdb post.

but what the person said is true: seems like clickhouse comments descend upon every recent duckdb post as if it’s some sort of competition or born out of inferiority complex. clickhouse is really cool tech. duckdb is really cool tech. i gro

adaptogen drinks have been heavily advertised on my social media as a way to get the "buzz" of an alcoholic beverage without the consumption of actual alcohol. i've wanted to give them a try, but they're quite expensive.
