Building Warp (https://warp.thegeeksquad.io), a storage engine where each entity is its own actor with its own SQLite shard.
I've been doing DDD and event sourcing for years but always had to squeeze aggregates and domain events into Postgres tables. I kept looking at what scaling would mean with CockroachDB or ScyllaDB and it scared me. So I asked what happens if you just make SQLite the storage and let the BEAM handle concurrency, one actor per entity.
Turns out it works pretty well. 1.5M events/sec on an M1 in Docker with 5 cores. ScyllaDB on the same hardware does 49K. Written in Gleam, but there's a TypeScript SDK if you just want to use it from Node.
After falling victim to a romance scam, I was left devastated and unsure of how to recover the money I lost. I realized the urgency of the situation and decided to take action. I came across a company called ShieldStridehub, which specializes in helping people recover funds lost to fraud. Trusting their expertise, I reached out to them for assistance.
ShieldStridehub team was professional and reassuring throughout the process. They thoroughly investigated the scam, provided guidance, and took the necessary steps to track and recover my funds. Thanks to their diligent efforts, I was able to recover my money, something I initially thought was impossible. I’m incredibly grateful to them for their support and expertise in helping me through this difficult time. Their assistance was invaluable, and I highly recommend their services to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation.
I ask, not to condemn, but to find out what your process was for developing the requirements. Clearly it was done with LLM help but what was the refinement process?
With Orban much reduced in power Fico's days are numbered.
But Orban will hang around, if only to do more of Putin's bidding, it's up to Magyar & the new government now to deal with Orban and his spies in a way that they won't be able to do a come-back.
Excepting the high-end stuff, ~zero purchasers prioritize your "simple, functional, reliable".
Compared to pretty much every other tech product, printers have lots of moving parts. Especially the nightmare called paper. Talk to a engineer some time about how wildly the mechanical properties of paper can vary - even before you leave it sitting around unsealed, at whatever humidity and temperature.
Fair. I guess the quotes make it seem sarcastic, but that was not my intention when I was quoting the article's terms. I'm genuinely interested in their approach to the community transition/transfer and what those terms mean, but it's likely they're not at liberty to say just yet. I am an active FOSS contributor to several projects, but what they do here will affect whether I am willing or even able to contribute to whatever this project becomes.
Interesting standard — as AI agents start handling more business workflows autonomously, payment governance becomes critical. How are you thinking about handling disputes when an agent makes an unintended transaction?
Nice — delivery analytics for small teams is super underserved. Do you find that the bottleneck is usually in the data collection or in getting teams to actually act on the insights?
I agree, software (software startups) has always been the golden child of investors because of how cheap it is compared to hardware or any other physical good.
Good software is expensive regardless of the involvement of LLMs because you need someone to take responsibility. Large companies will save a buck because there may be fewer people needed to take said responsibility, but it's probably a marginal saving compared to the overall scheme of things.
Good point, and an important example why static types are ultimately a failure: Encoding the actual invariants in them you care about is a pain in the ass.
No doubt there will be plenty of comments to your comment trying to rationalise this.
I'm with you. I'm not eating it for philosophical reasons and it's an interesting exercise at best. In the end I'm going with actual meat because it's readily available, half the price and it tastes good.
> And the highest number I ever heard for a heat pump was 135% [...] Truth is that electricity is great for kinetic energy but terrible at making heat. Most forms of energy can be transformed into another form of energy at about 50%. Electricity is the weird one where its 90% to motion but only 10% to heat.
Sorry but absolutely not, that's wrong on several levels. First off, in its most basic form of resistive heating, electric heating is already close to 100%. Heat pumps are even better, and I'll just quote Wikipedia
> At a cost of 1 kWh of electricity, they can transfer 1 to 4.5 kWh of thermal energy into a building.
