Results seem somewhat reasonable given that the amount of verus/TLA/Creusot/Lean code out there is tiny compared to all the other non-formal code. So it's understandable that the agents wont be able to go beyond proving

Strongly agree with the author here. The future will belong to programming languages that natively embed theorem proofers into their type systems so LLMs can forego a lot of testing by just validating the implementations they write against

That would be surprising to me if anyone would think this is novel. Using bitmaps to indicate whether things are in-use or not is very common in systems programming. Like you said PG does it, but most other systems do this too. It's no

Haha, looks like it. I remember the first time I encountered this thing called TPC-H back when I was a student. I thought "wow surely SQL can't get more complicated than that". Turns out I was very wrong about that. So it&#

Yep pretty much, feldera is the engine we don't control what SQL people throw at us.

Feldera is an incremental query engine, you can think of it as a specialized database. If you have a set of question you can express in SQL it will ingest all your data and build many sophisticated indexes for it (these get stored on disk).

Yep, this comment sums it up well. We have many large enterprises from wildly different domains use feldera and from what I can tell there is no correlation between the domain and the amount of columns. As fiddlerwoaroof says, it seems to b

Hi, I'm the author of the article. As to your hard disagree, I guess it depends... While this particular user is on the higher end (in terms of columns), it's not our only user where column counts are huge. We see tables with 100+

feldera has a way to run ad-hoc/list queries on materialized views. Alternatively, you can send the result somewhere where you can query it.

It's similar in spirit, but in Dafny one can express much more complicated and complex invariants which get checked at build time -- compared to eiffel where pre/post conditions are checked at runtime (in dev builds mostly).
