what are the properties of the table? is the whole table 2B rows or is that the amount of row updates/inserts that happen per period (day, week, month)? We do handle a lot of large…

Open Table Formats (Iceberg, Delta Lake, Hudi, etc) are the approach we've taken. That let's us offer a query engine but also let's the tenant bring their preferred engine (Snowfla…

DuckDB can read/write SQLite files via extension. So you can do that now with DuckDB as is. https://duckdb.org/docs/stable/core_extensions/sqlite

Yeah exactly. Wouldn't it be easier to make it self reported but use a mechanism to incentivize accurate market prices. Like enforce that the owner can't sell for more than x% the …

https://jan.ai/ is pretty idiot proof.

You need a viable Proof of Human/Personhood system and afaik one does not yet exist.

I agree with your take here. I have a partner that anyone in this thread would label as a #1 but my two siblings are essentially on the same plane of intimacy. If my partner left m…

> The modern Luddite, I think, doesn't necessarily "hate" looms, or their inventors. They just don't have any faith that those necessary compensations you describe will ever happen…

I agree with your premise but ultimately its the responsibility of governments to manage how society distributes what is produced. In the US at least, it seems most of the tension …

are you guys only sticking to Ethereum? Any plans for Algorand support?

Can we get any of Iceberg/Delta/Hudi that isn't terribly complex to setup? Like configurable completely from Standard SQL via the CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE syntax.

100% agree.

I partake in this trade. There are other DeFi markets than Aave with better rates (6% to 9% range) for borrowing Tether. I also don't only use one market or one chain to hedge a bi…

Doing the exact same for some side projects. It's been a delight.

Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed the "Tyranny of the Power Law".

I agree an employee should be cautious for the exact risks you outlined but I don't know if I'd say this is a function of any power dynamic. Employees should be saving such that th…

I agree with you but I think one thing that might help people fear this change less is reiterating that the density necessary isn't Manhattan or Downtown Chicago. There are a lot o…

I see it as a combination of demographics (less millennials than boomers to drive consumption) and a lack of investment 20 to 30 years ago into next generation infrastructure and i…

just so we can be perfectly clear, is the point you are trying to defend, that the differences circumstances of black people in America as compared to Asians can be explained with …

Absolutely there is but the way that those outside the group make it seem is that we're 100% responsible for how the culture that exists got to where it is. The mainstream culture …

> You’re describing why you believe it’s okay to discriminate against that Asian student because there’s “too many yellows, not enough blacks”. Not really. If intelligence is equal…

Probably late posting here but going to post here to maybe offer some understanding to why it is people support policies like this. For the record, I'm not personally for it but th…

They aren't saying that. They are recognizing that many forms of power in society are zero sum. There are plenty of ways to get a great education but only one Harvard and a limited…

Ran into some similar issues with those bindings. We switched to using the ODBC drivers and its been great. Those are official and we just use an ODBC library in go to connect

not OP but I respect the apology
