It's not an entirely new art form. The demoscene [0] has been going strong far longer than most of us have even been coding. So apparently some people _will_ execute interactive ar…

Speaking for myself: Berlin has a special kind of poor-is-sexy culture and this would not be too unusual. Lived there for 4yrs, most of them without a smartphone (had a 20eur burne…

Yes, but this is only a solution if your library is only targeting windows. If you want users of any standards-compliant C++ implementation to be able to use your library today, yo…

Thanks. I had read that article some time back :) Sadly it does not give a figure/order of magnitude of the amount of data that's stored in citus after aggregation, but I guess it'…

Impressive. Any chance you could tell how much data is stored for the analytics service after pre-aggregation? (In terms of TB/day or so - I guess it can't be the full 70gbit/s?).

Actually, you can even have incompatibilities with the same compiler and different compile flags. So to reliably build a "semi-portable" c++ object one would have to ensure that al…

That's almost 70gbit/s (are those cloudflare http logs by any chance?) on 100 nodes vs ~170mbit/s on 6 nodes. Or, in other terms 700mbit/s per host with your kafka setup versus ~30…

This confused me, too. I think what they meant with "1000 nodes" is that the dataset they're using for the benchmark is synthetic monitoring data (where the thing being monitored a…
