At 4.8TB one could add a header section with the full code, instructions how to compile it etc. That would certainly help to reproduce it, assuming civilizations in 10k years still…

It's correct that the number of reinsurers is smaller than that of primary insurers. But the risk born by reinsurers is less correlated, not more. Any given primary insurer has ris…

Since it is a fork of VS Code you can install any VS Code extension in Cursor (although manually): https://www.cursor.com/how-to-install-extension

From what I understood the article refers to the point that DuckDB doesn't provide its own dataframe API, meaning a way to express SQL queries in Python classes/functions. The link…

I suspect so, OpenAI is subject to the EU AI Act [0]. Last time they released the Advanced Voice Mode it also took some time before it became available in the EU. Not sure why UK a…

Hmm enough capacity for the rest of the world but not EU: https://help.openai.com/en/articles/10250692-sora-supported-...

I'm using both Spark and polars, to me the appeal of polars is additionally it is also much faster and easier to set up. Spark is great if you have large datasets since you can eas…

Yes only found the announcement [1] that the Polars team and NVIDIA engineers are working on a GPU engine, but other than that no concrete examples. Github issues also don't provid…

To add to that, an additional benefit would be you can compile and release it as Python package (Py03/maturin) or compile to WASM so it runs in the browser (with javascript binding…

In short: Compatible with existing Spark jobs but executing them much faster. Benchmarks in the README file and docs [1] show improvements up to 3x while not even all operations ar…

Yeah totally agree. I think it's great there is an organization that works on establishing standards but paywalling them definitely adds lots of frictions. In an ideal world the or…

Currently there is very little information available online on GQL, the SIGMOID paper 'Graph Pattern Matching in GQL and SQL/PGQ' linked in the article is a great intro to the topi…

Agree names are too close, searching GQL on Google returns results related to GraphQL as well. GraphQL is older, it was introduced in 2015 [1] while the work on the ISO GQL standar…

Agree, substrait is a really cool project! Related: if you like substrait you might want to check out datafusion too. The project is a query execution engine built on top of Apache…

Have you by any chance used Pyright? If not, I can highly recommend it. The VS Code extension makes writing Python almost as if it's a statically typed language (+ there is a CLI i…
