So basically a Nyquist rate type of concept.

I run sudo shutdown +15 (or other amount of minutes) when I need a compute instance and don’t want to forget to turn it off. It’s a simple trick that will save you in some cases.

And Brasil, Portugal and other portuguese-speaking places

They probably threw a fat CIDR block in their IP blacklist to fight off a spam campaign, and your IP was caught in the dragnet. This is how the big companies do it. They’ll evaluat…

In the lower level arrow/parquet libraries you can control the row groups, and even the data pages (although it’s a lot more work). I have used this heavily with the arrow-rs crate…

You may be able to get close with sufficiently small row groups, but you will have to do some tests. You can do this in a few hours of work, by taking some sensor data, sorting it …

I will write something up when the dust settles, I’m still testing things out. It’s a project where the data is fairly standardized but there is about a petabyte to deal with, so I…

This is a huge challenge with Iceberg. I have found that there is substantial bang for your buck in tuning how parquet files are written, particularly in terms of row group size an…

Look at the website for that polling company. It is bizarre. None of the people on the people page have the company on their LinkedIn pages. Seems to be astroturf. Edit: look at th…

Sqitch is an incredibly under appreciated tool. It doesn’t have a business pushing it like flyway and liquibase, so it isn’t as widely known, but I vastly prefer it to comparable m…

How quickly does the append-only chain grow? What are the storage needs for it?

There are some inaccuracies in this article. For example, the villa on Capri was built by Tiberius, not Augustus. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villa_Jovis

If you’re going to work with weather data use a columnar database, like BigQuery. If you set things up right your performance will generally be a few seconds for aggregation querie…

Done! I hope they can act fast.

I read this and think “ah, well there are many more non-rich people so the density requirements make this sort of thing complicated” and then I look out the window over the Europea…

The thing that matters is oxygen exposure more than anything. You can’t (trivially) reverse the effects of oxygen. This is why Coravin exists: replace the air (with oxygen) with an…

Unfortunately it’s not a relational database, so no constraints or any of the other features.

Please provide more detail. I find the USPS to be one of the best things about this country. Every morning I get an email with photos of the mail I will receive, and a listing of t…

Zalto wine glasses. $60 per, and well worth it if you enjoy wine. A honyaki chef’s knife and a vinyl cutting board to go with it.

Which one? IMS?
