Personally I think it’s a great response and very well written. I didn’t jump on the congrats-Databricks wagon when the result first came out because of the weird front page comparison against snowflake. Both companies are doing great work.

It does, which one can argue it’s an implementation detail. The differences I mentioned above eg sharding, transaction boundary, secondary indices, etc. should be generally applicable to a non-relational db and not unique to TAO. I could be

How a graph DB index the data to support this query?

This is a great topic. I have been working on TAO for many years. I am not very familiar with other graph databases; I assume fundamentally they are more or less the same. Here are some differences between RDB and a graph db IMHO, 1. shardi

The tweet is certainly loaded, hence the point of this HN post lol. First of all there's std::function, which uses Type Erasure https://blog.the-pans.com/type-erasure/ . It means std::function<void(int)> can

The answer is yes. And you can verify this by checking std::is_trivially_copyable<FnPtrType>::value using FnPtrType = int (*)(int) // for example
