Thanks for releasing this! How do you handle DDL queries? Are table changes synchronized to the Iceberg table automatically? Also, I recently started looking into olake[0] to serve…

How does Lakebase compare to Ducklake[0]? [0] https://ducklake.select/

I’ve had very good experience with it last year. I used it at large scale with data that had been in iceberg previously and it worked flawlessly. It’s only improved since. Highly r…

Simon Willison wrote a good post about Dan Woods’ work on “Autoresearching Apple's "LLM in a Flash" to run Qwen 397B locally”. [0] https://simonwillison.net/2026/Mar/18/llm-in-a-fl…

I use them both depending on which feels more natural for the task, often within the same project. The interop is easy and very high performance thanks to Apache Arrow: `df = duckd…

After stumbling upon this, I’ve been obsessively looking for an excuse to drill a well[0]. https://drillyourownwell.com/

Perhaps as a profit center to the tea industry. Most tea bags contain the grades of tea that can't be sold in the more expensive loose leaf form. Basically leaf fragments and dust.…

I’ve been using it to great effect for the last year or so. It really is a breath of fresh air. In my case, I’m using a Django backend, but there are lots of successful folks using…
