>Is there really such a thing as a bad query that can be rewritten to give the same results but faster? For me, that's already the query optimizer's job. I can't tell if your discl…

I was wondering the same thing, the Galaxy Watches (before and after Tizen) have always been solid for me, granted we don't really have Apple products and I get the ecosystem advan…

I think it is also wrong in the capabilities, example: Redshift should be able to read Iceberg via Redshift Spectrum. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/dg/querying-iceb..…

That's what it originally meant, at least in my experience. It was when warehouses got access to commodity storage through virtualization options (Hey! I can read S3 from Redshift …

I also isn't accurate. The Elves are generally good but don't help at all costs, they are fairly self-serving (or seem to be). Gollum is a swing b/w pity and anger. Gandalf and Ara…

Even with the graphic in the article, it has tablets in around 2010, there were definitely tablets well before that. They took a while to grow and take off, seems similar here.

I think you're referring to the Gartner hype cycle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gartner_hype_cycle

Real-time generally means near-real-time and even then I liken it to availability. If asked people would say "I need to always be up" until they see the costs associated with it, t…

> run a Python function as a UDF Is that a differentiator? I'm unfamiliar with Snowpark's actual implementation but know SQL Server introduced Python/R in engine in 2016? something…

Late reply, I was wondering that but also, at least in the US, they tend to have older folks and retirees so that it may skew the stats. I really don't have any data on it, just sp…

Would especially sunny areas not produce people with more cancer (or certain types)?

Watching city sub-reddits devolve over the years has me feeling the same way. It seems coordinated.

Lambda support was added this month: https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2023/04/aws-lambd...

There are 4 comments in this thread (5 including mine) and ChatGPT is already mentioned twice. Interesting how quickly things adapt/change.

Who's hiring also has many positions in each listing though, if that is consistent across time it wouldn't seem to matter as much.

Just flew out of Memphis and these (or something very similar) were amazing, it felt archaic flying back and doing it the other way. Security time was a few seconds. Now if I can s…

>My kids could walk back from school but primary school do not allows them to get out without me. Where is this? Our kids flood the park and walk home, that's how it has been in a …

>I have it on good authority though that kids are distraction machines. More of a nuance here, they are mainly only distraction machines for 5-7 years, after that it is more about …

>The docking to a TV / monitor is a joke with the standard UI...I have never gotten it to work well, so if I need to dock I have to go into desktop mode. Really? I'm just using an …

I just don't have the time or willingness to have 1 location to play. Playing Halo anywhere and on the go or quickly hooking it to a usbc->HDMI port and Xbox controller for big scr…

That's the neat part, you get the entire steam library (not all of the old things do run or run well) but as an example of a good older game, Halo is awesome and all of them are ar…

for the price of the base model ($400), I can't imagine you'll lose too much selling it when v2 comes out (and likely fully sells out). If you have a decent stream library, it is r…

Would redshift serverless help at all? I realize that it may not have parity with the existing functionality, just a thought.

It can wind up with more of a procedural thought though than set-based. Not always, just something to pay attention to and pushing filters early / explicitly. It is asking more of …
