I'd love to know why the author (I've seen that elsewhere as well) would aim at not writing some plpgsql? Is it for the "tour-de-force" bragging rights? I've found that a plgpsql routine can be so much more efficient and faster to devise; especially with good use of triggers. Executing schema-related logic in "ring-0" is way faster and the transaction guarantees integrity? Isnt guaranteed integrity with some logic "vagrant-ish"? :-)
Interesting read. I wonder if this is only some bandwidth optimization to throw more hardware at the problem or an actual shift in perspective, ref no NaN/Inf, instead clamps to maxval. Could this introduce artifacts/will math libs need to code around this, or will this enable some new insight?
Totally unrelated: has anyone noticed that the bar on the F in the FORD logo ends with an e? It has been like that for a while. I remember reading somewhere that Henry Ford had forecasted that transportation was going to be all electric in the future; maybe related? Anyway, I think the demand for this will take them by suprise, and incidently, CT and Rivian need to get those factories churning quick.
Actually if they can build an Expedition SUV on this platform in short order, they could have another model T on their hands. That little e at the end of the bar crossing the capital F would finally take its meaning! (seriously in this price range, it could be a Panel van replacement for amazon, FEDEX, plumbers etc. A suburban ppl mover would be an absolute hit, I'd buy one in advance. (not a 100$ deposit, and cancel my CT reservation that I'm hoping to convert on to a yet to be announced hypothetical tesla SUV based on CT...)
I tried putting in a reservation in Canada yesteday. I think they got slashdoted. Spinning.... Victim of their success. Maybe they will understand why Tesla does not need paid for marketing?
I wonder if this is legal. I know Apple asks you to disable location tracking when returning devices to them for warranty. This could be abused by terrorists to use the postman nefariously...
A bit of hacking, some solar panels, a few stereos, tents, some poker chips, a rock band's visit... how long before the authorities would force him off? How many bitcoins would have he raked?
(OK this is thinking different in a slightly hollywoodesque way... still)
BTW awesome products Hashicorp, way to go!
