Just chiming in to say I don't care at all about accessibility

See Rawls 'Original Position' on why you should care: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_position

Has anybody recently interviewed Ian Curtis to get his thoughts about their shirt sales?

Bad name. Try again: https://www.firebolt.io/

This list is useless. What are the salient aspects of Python programs versus other programming langs/environments (e.g., Javascript, C++) that imposes different demands on a database system?

The answer is 'nothing'. So just use Postgres.

This professor has a PhD in lactating pigs, not computer science / ai. He should stay in his lane:

Is it called "CozoDB" or Cozo? Your README is inconsistent.

Shades of Basho

Can you please explain? They just ran out of money. They never did a SPAC.

I'm wondering if it would be worth skipping the SQL layer and compiling straight to the execution plan level.

You have to join five tables in a query. What join order will you pick in your execution plan? Will you use the same ordering for different WHERE clause parameters? What if you add an index?

What you're proposing was tried in the 1970s (see CODASYL) and it was a terrible idea.

Stuff like this didn't help:

Just ignore it.

maybe zheap will help?

According to Robert Haas, the zheap project is dead.

Pretty much every film based on real people and events takes liberties in service of narrative flow and drama.

Everything you said sounds like Britton-Lee's database. What is new?

that aims to surpass SQL in querying power.

What makes your approach likely to succeed versus all previous attempts to supplant SQL in the last 40 years?

If this is shocking wait until you find out that a lot of banks still use IBM IMS. That's IBM's first database that they built for the government to track rocket parts for the Apollo moon mission.

the lack of compelling Christian art in general the past 50 or 60 years

What about all those Mel Gibson movies that you guys have?

Gold has material use. You can make things with it.

Rather than a query planner, an interesting approach would be to expose the more stable part of the internals with a new language and let people roll their own query plans.

Those that are ignorant of history are doomed to repeat it.

The second one (mid 2000s) was a neat physical storage trick, which should have been a feature of a database system, not an excuse for building a new one.

Can you say what database this was? Akiban? SchoonerSQL?

There is a reason why IBM still makes a lot of money on IMS.

The only somewhat recent new DB that comes to mind which had a really interesting model was RethinkDB

In what way was it interesting? It was a document DBMS that supported MVCC.

TLDR: They are hoping to announce a revival in the near future.

2. There will never be another generation (in the near future) like boomers who didn't grow up tech savvy

You're living in a bubble.

You can only spend so much money on drugs and sex.

Speak for yourself.

Mike Freedman is extra legit. There were rumors that he was going to be the 11th member of Wu Tang to replace ODB (RIP).

I have zero tolerance for racism. My family voted for Trump and they say racist things. I don't need that in my life.

AFAIK It uses the MySQL frontend with a heavily modified InnoDB engine that writes to their shared-disk storage.
