@andyhattemer apple?

No such thing as a company that stepped out of the arena and re-entered successfully.

It's not often the co-founders and I author blog posts together, but we thought this one is important so we took time to write this together with the Neon team. In this blog we outline why we think a new type of database will slowly take over and replace all existing databases, we call it the Lakebase. We cover the WHY and the WHAT here: 𝐀 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐄𝐫𝐚 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐬: 𝐋𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐞 databricks.com/blog/what-is-a…

@Aviora_D @elonmusk Same here. Waiting for 18 months for Department of State to glue approved O1 visa in passport.

@elonmusk Dear Elon, We urgently seek your help. Many talented individuals, including AI professionals, are stuck in administrative processing for U.S. visas under section 221(g). Despite approved petitions, we're waiting 9-12+ months post-interview. This delay harms innovation.

@neogoose_btw Nice! Wonder how bigger would it be without libc

Only 15% of people believed that a real HTTP server could be done in under 200 LOC in assembly. Here is my MacOS arm assembly version that includes: - primitive routing - real configuration (like port is not hardcoded) - a lot of comments and still is under 200 LOC despite a lot of structural newlines and comments. Yes, I used libc but I think that proves that assembly is not scary.

@a_prout Fauna and YDB. Latter was developed under @yan_l who is now responsible for Aurora

Are there any SQL databases other than the newly announced Aurora DSQL that use optimistic concurrency control as a default (or only) option ? I’m not aware of any…

Got curious how much simultaneously open sqlite databases my mac has. Turns out -- 445: lsof | grep "\-wal" | wc -l 445

@davidgomes wonder how much is fixable in middleware

Exciting news! After months of hard work, our team at Playbook has launched a game-changer for creative teams! producthunt.com/posts/playbook… 🎨✨ 'Playbook x GPT' - the smart way to search your media files. Forget filenames, just ask what you remember! The idea is simple and should be everywhere, but it was surprisingly challenging to implement it in a way that feels right and smooth :)

Neon is now GA 🎉🎉🎉

Today the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration is proud to announce GW230529, the first exceptional #GravitationalWaves event from our fourth observing run (#O4). You can learn more from @astronerdika's excellent infographic, or by visiting our detection page! ligo.org/detections/GW2…

@baidakova looks like it proxies calls to another contract (0x5b9e8728e316bbeb692d22daaab74f6cbf2c4691) which is a multi-sig wallet

Crypto, need a smart contract nerd. What is this contract for? 0x0ACD35c2015E3AE6A8385b07948ed6d7d949d01f

@prepor @cramforce hm, looks like DataKit traces back Irmin. Haven't heard about it before.

@cramforce irmin is compatible with Git and can use it as storage layer irmin.org

Is there a document-based (or similar) database that uses git as a storage engine?

@cramforce Git is weird in that sense because "storage engine" is basically a naming/hashing convention for bunch of files. So you kind of automatically can use git cli to access it.

@kelvich I think it's the opposite since it is more like a filesystem (like git) and less like a database

@cramforce doc is a bit involved, but TLDR set of files they expose is conformant enough so that one can use usual git cli. Set operation is `echo "value" > /path/to/key`.

@cramforce github.com/moby/datakit is pretty close I think. More details in github.com/moby/datakit/b….

@mmeent_pg let’s say you are accessing your gmail or instagram account (so you know smth in advance) and allowed to change tls/http

@kelvich Unless, of course, you only care about talking to someone securely, in which case you only need to know that the connection has been made with TLS using a good keypair. You may not be talking to someone you know, but at least no-one can listen in on the conversation.

Q: Is it possible to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks without relying on public CAs or any pre-shared certificate?
