    Thank you for this. (I think HN should consider creating TLDR type of comments for upvoting separately from commentary. @Dan incentivise with different karma credits?)

    Off-topic: TIL wal2 mode in the works. Wow. That's a no-brainer feature, IMHO.

    Is the 300x performance boost attributable to the threading model vs process model? Was the code for the threading model written by hand or was it translated from the WIP threading…

    Unlikely. It goes further by also using the word "exploit". If they needed permissions for conversion, they'd have made a specific mention of that and thereafter confirmed legal ow…

    Genuine question: how did you figure this was AI generated? (If that is what you meant.)

    By definition, a FK has to reference a PK in the “parent”.

    Shouldn't there be a unit test to confirm landlock is on/off? (I mean, this seems a crucial aspect of the code which needs 100% test coverage.)

    Indeed. It's by no means "straightforward"

    I didn't say we should ignore splits. To reiterate: most third-party data providers include splits by restating historical prices. This only works if you want to analyse performanc…

    Terminating a bus factor 1 employee is not the problem. The real problem is not recreating BF1 reloaded with the new hire. Even a team of two is not completely ideal. Many, mostly …
