Giuseppe! Long time no see. Rockset’s architecture changed somewhat since we last talked— not in fundamental ways, but in ways that would alleviate your concerns. If you want to ta…

I think the main difference between our flavor of SQL and CockroachDB's (or PostgreSQL's) is that we don't have a specific "json" data type, but rather: 1. We don't need you to spe…

Then you really won't like it that we're moving in the opposite direction :) I personally like strong, static type systems. But a lot of real world data doesn't match static schema…

That's on my TODO list, both in terms of performance and in terms of features / ease-of-use. (Another interesting thing to compare against is SQL++ ( https://ci.apache.org/projects…

Yes. In our case, though, Rockset is not a transactional database, but a query engine on top of existing data, so we're not the right place to enforce constraints anyway.

> But some languages have a stronger type system with, in addition, highly qualified types (e.g. constness, range, sign or any custom contract). Sure. Those are overly simplistic c…

And operator"" _obfuscated1 has a serious bug, as it returns a temporary buffer allocated on the stack.

For now, this requires LuaJIT 2.0+, Linux x86_64.

Not the main purpose, obviously, but if you find any bugs, I'll be more than happy to take a look.

folly::small_vector does just that (and it lets you use one bit for a mutex, too! -- we have a lot of memory-constrained apps so we had to design data structures for them). We migh…

I'm Tudor, one of the main folly authors. I wrote format, Arena / ThreadCachedArena, DiscriminatedPtr, GroupVarint, TimeoutQueue, and various other pieces (parts of String.h, Threa…
