I saw that pop up! Yeah definitely interesting to think about that related to our sidekiq lsn aware stuff!

Makes total sense!

Wow the CPU spikiness is a surprise!

I just watched @hannes.muehleisen.org and @markraasveldt.bsky.social's intro to DuckLake.

I'm a massive fan of Iceberg, but DuckLake is super compelling! Squashing the catalog and 3 layers of metadata files into a boring SQL database while still getting Object Store scale 🤯

@quinnypig.com are you seeing much of this "correction" to NLB billing where AWS had "forgotten" to charge for cross AZ traffic since NLBs were introduced?

Yeah totally, super convenient.

I'd been using it mostly in JupyterLab or just the plain cli for all kinds of stuff for the last few years, but this is just primo for quick local explorations.

The DuckDB Local UI The DuckDB team and MotherDuck are excited to announce the release of a local UI for DuckDB shipped as part of the ui extension.

🦆 @duckdb.org local UI is honestly the best thing since sliced Parquet 🍞 Awesome work! @motherduck.com

Market Lane too 👌

Ooh do tell. I've got a studio display and 2 Mac's but just move the cable between them in a vertical stand thingie.

@misstipsy.bsky.social with another absolute gem of a piece. 👌

YouTube video by thejuicemedia Honest Government Ad | Nuclear (Australia)

The Liberal Party of Australia has made an ad about its Nuclear Plan, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative! www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBqV...

The days are long, but the weeks are short!

Grace Tame is a national Treasure.

Extremely unfun fact: math like this is one of the reasons the Nazis ended up deciding to build death camps.

They decided it was cheaper and easier to murder people, rather than deal with the logistics of moving them somewhere else after they had been deported.

One thing I've always wondered how to best handle is where to stash the benchmarking results to view them over time, and correlate with changes to identify the source of performance regressions.

I guess nowadays, some little scripts to dump it out to CSV or Parquet in an s3 bucket is pretty easy.

I love my Aarke one. Also, a much less shady company that Sodastream.

Thanks for all the awesome work ❤️

I have absolutely loved @marcbrooker.bsky.social's series on DSQL intervals. I hope they do a full VLDB or SIGMOD paper on it at some point!

@sj26.com quick out the gate on this one!! #awsreinvent

Livestream holding pattern slide

And now live from #awsreinvent comes the first keynote: Monday Night Live with Peter DeSantis.

The last few years it's become Surprise Monday Night Computer Science Lecture with Professor DeSantis, and I'm kinda hoping we get that again tonight.

This thread shall liveskeet the talk.
