I open sourced kavla, the SQL canvas I'm working on: https://github.com/aleda145/kavla README is very bare bones, needs a video or a picture too. The website should tell you some more things: https://ka

Excited about a stable C++ API for extensions! I made a dry run extension a few months ago ( https://github.com/aleda145/duckdb-dryrun ), will be so nice to build it just once and know that it will always work. Also urge

Hard disagree. Sure their docs are bad, and it's sometimes buggy. But to me cloudflare is actually innovating and trying to offer "new" infrastructure. Durable objects and workers are super cool. R2 has free egress, isn'

This stance is a breath of fresh air. In my experience change management is the first thing to slap on when a bad release happens. I've worked at a large enterprise that have a "Change Advisory Board", that you need to convin

I'm very impressed how well durable objects work for multiplayer experience! Also looks like the table shapes broke, there should be data that you can browse and download. I've replaced those with screenshots just in case anyone e

100% agree, it's on the todo list! If you just want to see what it looks like here's a demo looking at hackernews data: https://kavla.dev/hn There's also no email verification gatekeeping it so feel free to j

10 years ago I rode my bicycle from Connecticut to Central America. I stayed in Antigua for a few days to just relax and reflect. Thanks for bringing those memories back!

Working on open sourcing my data analytics canvas: https://kavla.dev/ I've worked on it for about a year, with 1700 commits. I've been going back and forth if I should just open up the canvas or also the multiplay

Yeah I think it boils down to trust issues. I can't know how the text was created. Anything created before 2023 I know that at least a human had to invest a significant amount of time to produce the story. Maybe I'm a bit too reac

I concur with the author. Personally I think I just won't read fiction produced after 2023. There's so much good literature already produced, why bother with the new stuff? I feel very sorry to any budding new authors. Maybe we ar

Pretty clever to keep the existing parquet files as is (assuming daily partitioned) to not break any analytical queries. Also creating this index for the first time would make me sweat. With exabytes in the lake, the backfill bill will be $

As a data engineering person I can say that this is a great write up! Some thoughts: A "bubbling" topic right now is conversational analytics (i.e. talk to your data). There has been an explosion of tools in the last 6 months. YC

I have never heard of Denodo before. "The only real semantic layer" is a bold claim. From the website it just looks like another data governance tool?

Got another daughter last week! There were a lot of complications post delivery, and I want to make some sort of interactive story about it. We'll see how it goes (Everyone is safe and sound)

I let agents write my code but not my commits. I think I gain some understanding by doing `git diff` and then writing the (brief) commit message myself.

Örebropartiet is like the weirdest party in Sweden. It's named after "Örebro", a Swedish city with 125k population. The party's founder, Markus Allard, used to be far left politician before turning far right. Their party

I think the animosity comes from most people just encountering the "slop". Generated ads, fake content or low quality music.

I just started doing this last week! I'm not very good at C++, but coupled with the extension template and codex I got a basic version of my extension working within an hour. Go for it!

This sent me on a trip down memory lane! So nice that they are still going. I solved a few of their problems almost 10 years ago. Looking at my repo I have absolutely regressed mathematically. I apparently solved project 15 without any code

Cool! But as a data engineer I don't know when I would ever use this. Getting data into a centralized place so it can be joined and queried easily is like prio 1 for any data team. I'm sure SREs will really love me doing expensive

I recently picked up writing short stories again. I briefly looked at different editors, but ended up just doing it in vscode (daily driver). I'll make sure to look at cheese paper for the next one, looks like it has some cool features
