    I'm on-call all the time, and the first thing I've taught myself is to not glorify it like some superhero saves the day worship. I'm both proud and (slightly) ashamed each time I h…

    I have to disagree with this as off topic. The blog lists ways to optimize sqlite for production, for those who have already made that choice. But these comment links are about cho…

    I love AI and use it every day. But comparing it to PC/internet/manufacturing/etc is IMHO not the right comparison. Technology revolutions like PC, internet, smartphones, communica…
