They also show a warning in edge/bing when you google "google chrome". Must be their highest search term :-).

It has to join each part of the previous join to the next join, and if you have a lot of joins this can get out of hand. We have a lot of joins in our final fct orders from our intermediate table, and looks like this: from foo left join bar

Airbyte looks great, and the UI is fantastic. It uses Java for its connectors, and looks great but has issues importing a massive dataset into S3 as there is a chunk limit of 10k, and each chunk size is 5mb :).

Exactly what we've been doing for 2+ years at my job. It's amazing. Snowflake is amazing, but watch out for search optimization costs (it's great for append only), left joins taking FOREVER (avoid left joins as much as possib

That's why I said we cut down on waste, we reuse a lot. Things we can't, we recycle. And it actually is with redcycle: https://redcycle.net.au/faqs/ We bring the collected plastic back to our facility for ini

Here in Perth, AU the government seems to be pretty switched onto this. We have a system called FOGO (Food Organics, Green Organics) for recycling, and soft plastics can't be recycled but we as a household put them in a bag then recycl

Random message boards like this were my favourite thing of the early 2000s. The personalities that appeared on random forums were hilarious, I looked forward to reading and posting as it was genuine and great. Reddit took over most of this,

The most exciting thing happening in game development is the move towards ECS (Entity Component Systems). Hopefully with games like Overwatch using it (and other big names), it'll see an uptick in usage. Unity is reworking their system

There are still builds out there, but honestly 4gb isn't much when the thumbdrives are so cheap now. Still blows my mind how cheap they are!

Most packaging for software was done by the distro and not the actual software authors though right?

I had a gutfeel around 3080 launch it was going to be big, so grabbed one on launch day (had to wait for months for the local store to have stock though..). Now seeing them 2x the price. Crazy times.

This is exactly what I have wanted to build, changing into a data engineer build. Well done, excited to keep an eye on it.

It's been huge for a while, see http://www.cleanenergyregulator.gov.au/RET/Forms-and-resourc... for a run down on the installations. It's big here as it can save you a lot of money.

vfio works great for games (and general "Oh cr*, I need this random Windows only thingy), and the added bonus is if you install to another nvme drive, you can actually dualboot if you ever wanted to do that :-).

Azure discount for Cloudflare seems tiny though, but that won’t fit into their recent marketing efforts Cloudflare has been doing.
