> I am now wondering if anyone has done a graph db where the edges are embedding vectors rather than strict terms. Curious: how would you imagine it working if there were such a graph db?

Modern, but sane syntax (readable), good defaults (strong typing, null safety...), good-enough runtime performance, good APIs and tooling out of the box, cross-platform (also hot-reload on some, AOT). The list goes on, what specifics do you

Basho team was very kind to open source contributions in ~2011-12: I've written an open source Riak client in Dart, and they had sent me t-shirts (the quality ones that are rare today). Nice treats for a fun project :)

One of the postgresql client packages (posgres) is roughly 8 years old. That's how "client side" it ever was...

It sounds like you need a desktop workstation with replaceable extension cards, and not a mostly immutable laptop, which has different strengths.

Clearly not all, that would be a different announcement.

Why do you think it must be one thing or the other? It can be better than Javascript, used for Flutter and app development, and also cross-platform compiled and used for backend.

Nit: Approval voting (yes/no for each candidate) is easier to implement and also understand. I couldn't rank 82 people, but could yes/no them...

Is your work open source?

I remember a similar read. I think it also helped that armies become more disciplined, could march longer (coffee was a stimulant vs. alcohol), also the workforce had fewer errors. Any chance that somebody knows the reference?

Depends on the definition of widespread use, but e.g. CockroachDB and YugabyteDB offer scaling of a subset of Postgresql features (and extending on the cluster capabilities). Nevertheless, Citus is now a promising open source alternative.

Wouldn't the increased swap load reduce the lifetime of the nvme drive?

I don't really care if somebody blocks a random port of sshd. I just don't understand why people are eager to block public https traffic, which is exposed to the public internet anyway.

Shouldn't you protect that endpoint, regardless of the traffic coming from tor or not? It is really cheap to get traffic through domestic VPN proxies, so a dedicated attacker will get to it anyway...

I use tor for exploring topics that I don't want to tie to my regular profile (ranging from professional software development, through health care issues, but also hobbies, fiction and nsfw content). Having these browsing in a separate

Proposal for web-scrapers to self-coordinate: monitor the response latencies and rate limit yourself based on that. (1) Limit your load / parallelism: do not use more than 4 threads, and if the site takes more than a few seconds to res

To be fair, tor is a really crappy network to orchestrate a DDOS attack. On the other hand some sites just can't take much traffic, especially if it is a consistent inflow of requests. It may be that somebody just used tor as a proxy t

I know a company that already reaches test coverage metric goals by feeding chatgpt with code that they need test for. These are tests based on mocks, running trivial things, providing little to no value to the overall codebase. But if the

This looks like a common pattern at other places too: you won't get "best-neighborhood" wealth from being first- (or sometimes even second-)generation high achiever. The root cause seems to be that there are usually more high

Not every radio is about music, but yeah, it is a good point to double-check free to use music licenses.
