The ramdisk that overflows to a real disk is a cool concept that I didn't previously consider. Is this just clever use of bcache? If you have any docs about how this was set up I'd…

Does duckdb support remote-duckdb as a storage engine? Seems like a way to support distributed duckdbs. Ducks all the way down? :)

Oh! I understand, thanks for walking through that. Yes very terse compared to the equivalent react :)

Ah ok! Very cool. Maybe I'm still missing a tiny piece of syntax? I don't see any output when I run that code in the fiddle https://jsfiddle.net/397fb684/

Would we expect the list to re-render once the fetch finishes? This may just be years of react poisoning my brain const Stargazers = () => { const stargazers = van.state([]); fetch…

Hmm, maybe! Is that the idiomatic way to do async? I was thinking something along the lines of this, which react devs will have written a variation of plenty of times :) import { u…

This is cool, though I think a table-stakes example that is missing is how to do a network request. I see the stargazers example but that entire component is awaited, which doesn't…

Ah yup, looks like @saurik pin-pointed my original source (iirc I slightly tweaked the jq, but you get the idea). Please do spread the idea- I would love capability native like thi…

Im surprised there's still no "trace" view of pipeline execution, especially with how prevalent DAG pipelines have become. Somewhere on the internet I found this handy jq oneliner …

Is there more behind the scenes than just the `timestamp | json` table? From what I understand, any query in clickhouse against that involving a filter would require a full table s…

Cities look so much more fun to explore when pedestrian-focused

Many outlets gloss over the n+1 query problem, but I find it to be a major shortcoming of the gql spec. Sure there are solutions, but they are not very ergonomic. In one of our pro…

I’ve been curling this for years but was not aware of the new v2 api that shows hourly ascii charts. Looks sweet!

Neat! How do you handle cross-geo latency? I know google has to rely on precise clocks to make this work in spanner

This depends on row-based binlog replication, correct? Has netflix had to deal with systems with statement-based replication?

Awesome!! It's been disheartening to see flotjs (which was essentially unmaintained for 5 years) still beat out scores of other charting libraries in terms of raw speed. Over the l…

In the reference implementations of GQL, that “one query” from the client balloons out in to possible hundreds of queries out the back side of GQL. Things like dataloader exist but…

` If Query Batching is enabled, Apollo will not issue requests immediately. Instead it will wait for up to 10 ms to see if more requests come in from other components. ` This has a…

Evan I think this is a great experiment. React hooks was an interesting idea and I like how Vue’s approach feels even more reactive (a la observable.com) There seems to be an overa…

The v8 isolates tech is super cool. It seems the other major providers might not be leveraging it in their FaaS platforms- do you have a hypothesis of why?

I’d recommend taking a look at Vega https://vega.github.io/vega/ or its sibling Vega-lite. It exposes all of its configuration via declarative JSON. I could see it working well for…

This datasource doesn't require any custom panels to function. To your point though, it would be nice if grafana supported incremental time range querying out of the box, since man…

Agreed, watching dashboards is no substitute for alerting. However, one of the motivators for doing this is to reduce pressure on the metric backend. It's common to have Grafana re…
