for me the issue is that DuckLake's feature of flushing inlined data to parquet is still in alpha. one of the main issues with parquet is when writing small batches you end up with a lot of parquet files that are inefficient to work wi

I always thought that trading precious topsoil for motive power when oil does just fine was an insane premise. Too bad not enough people recognize this for what it is. Biomass is another issue that I find grossly inappropriate.

same here man, ended up going with trino explicitly for writing and data management and using chdb/duckdb to process data for front-ends etc (mostly ethereum data so chdb "support" for ui256 is quite important)

I've seen Harris pronounce her name a variety of different ways... One of the more compelling reasons behind throwing accusations of wrongspeak when folks pronounce her name one way or another is that "kuh-mul-ah" sounds like

Caloric restriction (CR) leading to longer lifespan doesn’t generalize, including rhesus monkeys [1]. Moreover, across various species there seems to be negative correlation between average lifespan and effectiveness of CR and lifespan exte

the solar spot is comparable in size but the CME were significantly (100x) less energetic than is estimated for Carrington. With that said, the Earth's magnetic field has weakened by ~15% since the 1800s so there's that...

I was trying to find stuff around Oct 2003 when the last event of this magnitude took place, but I wasn't able to find anything comparable. From what I can tell the forecast is more mild on the 12th UTC, so I wouldn't worry that m

care to elaborate how is Tether a scam? is it because they earn the yield difference on user reserves while giving nothing to users? if that's so, probably due to how US law views securities. other than that, it appears as though users

I haven’t kept track of the strength of the last coronal mass ejection, but I know you are wrong in this regard, because coronal mass ejections take around 3 to 4 days, sometimes even longer to reach earth. Other effects from solar flaring,
