Not from Tigerbeetle, but having looked at his code this is what I saw https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45896559

Thanks for the code and clarification. I'm surprised the TB team didn't pick it up, but your individual transfer test is a pretty poor representation. All you are testing there is how many batches you can complete per second, givi

I'm a bit worried you think instantiating a new client for every request is common practice. If you did that to Postgres or MySQL clients, you would also have degradation in performance. PHP has created mysqli or PDO to deal with this

Think you are mistaken. The M4 beats the Ryzen AI 365 in both single and multicore benchmarks

I'm talking specifically about their mobile lineup, not desktop. And more specifically the performance to power efficiency the M series is getting. It is more than 2 generations behind.

If you read the first half of the sentence then yeah.... The complete sentence clarifies "with their mobile lineup"

And therein lies the problem. Apple has managed to push a hardware advantage into something that makes a difference.

It feels like Intel and AMD are asleep at the wheel with their mobile lineup. I've been looking at non-apple equivalents that have similar performance/power as the M lineup and it seems they all lag about 20%+. For $800 the M4 Air

I think OpenAI has caught the non tech mind share. I noticed just this week that my friend group and girlfriend no longer say we will Google something, but rather let me ask ChatGPT…

I spent 2 seconds clicking on your bio and saw this account was created 4 hours ago. Makes me wonder why you felt the need to create a burner account. This isn't to say anything one way or another about you, its just my 2 second of rea

I find it a very interesting approach to what she is doing. The problem with most philanthropic organizations is that they come to rely on a constant stream of money. I've heard the Gates Foundation have to be very intentional with how

Some days things just go badly. The only thing you can change is how you respond. Well done to you and the team for getting through this. I for one am and will always be a cloudflare customer

AFAIK there was a hiring freeze mandate from the board and the previous CEO ignored this. Hence was fired... The new CEO had to rectify the situation. Its a horrible situation but at the end of the day, it was going to happen
