I'm slowly finding my way back to testing local LLMs (out of fear of price spikes). Currently positively surprised by OpenVINO. But my private benchmarks indicate not to trust edge…

One question I'm asking myself is: can LLMs be bored?

Maybe you are unconsciously doing the right thing(TM) already? So try doing it with SQLite instead :)

Agree with your assessment of small and reliable for SQLite. Disagree with your baseline requirement. ACID is more important for me and does not contain `No crashes`.

Understood: SQLite is to Postgres as DuckDB is to ClickHouse.

That sounds like a rather serious application. Did you file an issue?

Hm, only anecdotal evidence, but page rank computation for Wikipedia works on my laptop ( https://github.com/idesis-gmbh/WikiExperiments ) where `NetworkX` fails. And it uses some …

Interesting: I transferred the idea of a matrix being stored row or column wise to the database world and assumed this was a more physical than theoretical feature (not a native sp…

Hm, our internal benchmarking shows something like a 30x speedup compared to SQLite ( https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickBench shows an even greater speedup due to not considering …

Theoretically I would agree, but practically I still wonder why we need different database engines for row and columnar storage if supporting different types of indices is trivial(…

It is a educational/R&D type project. We are more of backend developers and `rill` worked fine as a rapid visualization frontend with low learning curve for us. Edit: still realizi…

If you start with Excel, I'll counter with Postgres: https://github.com/duckdb/pg_duckdb . I haven't found the time to check this on one of our installation, though.

I'm using DuckDB in another project (on my laptop) where `NetworkX` fails due to the memory limit of 32 GB. So yes, as soon as you are doing out of core work I'd assume the combina…

Yes, but you are probably a bit too polite. And I'm not sure how to do justice to SQLite, Postgres and my new favourite toy DuckDB.

Hm, I somewhat understand your point of `making wise decisions`. But doesn't that concern all kinds of software development? For me, it does.
