Just the ability to query postgres itself using the duckdb engine is an amazing feature

identity probably refers to the ’IS’: SELECT js, js IS JSON OBJECT "object?", js IS JSON ARRAY "array?", js IS JSON ARRAY WITH UNIQUE KEYS "array w. UK?", js IS JSON ARRAY WITHOUT …

Will not happen. ”green” energy is not green- it consume massive amount of resources, it is expensive, short lived, destabilize the grid. I’m super happy my country is finally waki…

I dont find it weird, just mildly disturbing having to sift through. Still worth it.

I disagree, and that is fundamental point. It is not just one view, you can pretty much check the different authors or find the original sources and they are not in agreement. Prop…

Fine but zerohedge is not really one author or one agenda, it is an aggregate of many different views and you can’t trust all of them equally…

No it should be more like: I guess we should not put peanuts into vaccines without serious consideration.

Nitpicking but San Andreas does have AI where police chases work and NPC do not feel completely brainless, and cars do not only follow tracks, it does not feel empty and lifeless.

Esc key vs touch bar does not influence how you can use vim?

And if you ask me, It has not been enough touch bar bashing... I’ve opted to buy a 2015 Mac Book Pro this year, it might be easier to get over apple than the touch bar even...

Generally agree but not that they are deterred by punishment alone, no. They will do whatever they get away with. Which would imply - “the right thing” must also be objectively bet…

When they are small, and if you only go by your own memory I'm sure it can happen... "Destroying angels are sometimes mistaken for edible mushrooms such as young puffballs, button …

Not yet, merge is broken though and postgres has an alternative that actually do handle races.

Look up terra preta, regular wood would just decompose and release the carbon back. You have to make charcoal out of it to be able to sequester carbon in the longer term (thousands…

Letting trees grow and sucking up co2, and then making them into charcoal/biochar, putting that into the soil is one simple way to do it. Even if not done, still think a living for…

Neither Java nor Go for system programming. Java and its license is also controlled by one of the most evil companies, google at least pretend not to be evil...

I agree but it is how it always been. The war on drugs is called "war on drugs" not institutionalized rasism with a fancy spin to make people accept it...

The war on drugs is and has always been racist, it is targeting minorities and filling prisons. How it is precieved is a different thing.

Hmm, afaik up to 10% biochar is considered beneficial in any soil and will keep nutrients fixated in the soil, more than that is mainly good since it removes co2 from the environme…

See this comment a lot but absolutely disagree. Firefox works and is only getting better on MacOS. (And if being friends with MacOS is the point, then why not use Safari, does not …

This is kind of expected given go give you no additional safety, only focusing on "simplicity". Rust seems so much more promising.

No, CTEs are not planned to remain a barrier, this is already fixed in the next version which is in feature freeze right now. https://www.depesz.com/2019/02/19/waiting-for-postgres…

But postgres actually is that with json and jsonb. The postgres developers are also very focused on providing a better alternative to mongo. Afaik similarly configured postgres als…

More interesting question: How do we know regular drug users are not self medicating.
