Very very seldomly! Obviously we need to be correct in 100% of the cases, which is why the de-optimizer is there, but in practice it just never triggers. Right now the things that trigger a deopt are very limited — malformed time literals,

Our vector implementation is fully compatible with the syntax for vector fields and comparison functions in MySQL 9 -- we have carefully backported all the changes to our version of MySQL 8 to ensure full backwards and forwards compatibilit

These are very relevant questions! Thank you! We're storing IDs from a ghost column that is created in the table where you're inserting vector data. This works very well in practice and allows updating the value of the vectors in

Definitely yes to the first: the index implementation is fully integrated with PlanetScale's sharding layer, so you can scale horizontally as much as you need. This works very well in practice: the sharding layer, Vitess, is extremely

Hi! I'm one of the authors of this feature. It's something quite novel, because it's not just a HNSW plug-in for MySQL (like e.g. pgvector is for Postgres). It's a fully transactional index, integrated into InnoDB. We ba

Hey Nican! Thanks for the feedback. It wasn’t clear from the blog post, but as the sibling poster points out, the system has full eventual consistency: it behaves like a replica, but it replicates a whole cluster of MySQL instances simultan

Hey, author here. Thanks for the kind words! This is a custom pipeline that I designed for the article. It's implemented as a Node.js library using SVG.js and it statically generates the interactive SVGs directly in the static site gen

Oh OK, you have clearly spent more time thinking about this problem than the team of engineers at GitHub who've been researching code search at scale for more than four years. I bet they feel real silly right now knowing they could hav

Thank you, I appreciate that. I'll point people at SunSed the next time they ask about MD alternatives. :)

Hi there! As the spec explains, this is a Markdown specific blacklist that prevent the tags that would otherwise "break" the content of the Markdown document. A document that contains these tags will not be parsed properly by an H

Author here. 5 years ago I would have agreed with you and logged e.g. 10 million merge requests to replay them offline. But one thing I've found over the years (which may seem obvious in retrospect) is that staging environment are not

Oh, by the way, people were asking on Twitter, so we just enabled support for the HTML5 clipboard API. If you're using Chrome, you can now just paste an image into the comment box to upload it! Very handy with Mac OS X screenshot shortcuts
