Hmm, if the caching layer doesn't change(I assume it was optimized for olap style queries), and the new parquet format is better for olap... I'm still not understanding how it performs well for oltp reads.

I'll give the article another read... Maybe I missed something. Thank you for the response! Really nice to be able to get info straight from people who work on the product

Maybe I'm too stupid to understand the article... How does this achieve performant querying for olap and oltp purposes?

Based on my understanding, olap queries will go to the parquet files which are stored in a columnar fashion and oltp style queries will go to a caching layer that sits on top of those parquet files?

What's the special sauce here? Seems like they're just caching the data which, for all intents and purposes, seems like the same solution of storing another copy of the data which is what they say they're avoiding.

one of the benefits of being on android and being able to sideload apps. Look up "revanced youtube" and you'll be able to turn off shorts.

ublock origin for blocking them on desktop. If you're on an iphone... uninstall youtube?

my quality of life has increased substantially... although sometimes the app bugs out and shorts still make it on my home page. I spend like 10 minutes scrolling through shorts and get a weird shock "how the fuck did I end up here?", restart the app and boom shorts gone again.

https://www.climbcation.com/ a site to help you come up with good climbing trip ideas where you filter based on climbing type, time of year, location, and your climbing abilities.

Does my wife also get this so she can be on the other side? Nevermind... I don't need the sad reality of her trying to swipe left and telling me she thinks the app is broken.

how do you and others get past all the permissions that onesec needs? They say everything remains on device; however, it's a closed source application so there's not really any way to confirm that besides looking at the packets that are going out of your phone.

this seems like an interesting idea I'd like to try but all the permissions it needs is terrifying to me... I understand why it needs them but there's no way for me to verify that they aren't doing anything funny with that access.

i'd disagree heavily with that... let's say you have an expense of an insurance policy that covers you for the next 10 years. You're paying for 10 years of service, that should be amortized over 10 years.

I'm a bit confused.

The lossy timeline solution basically means you skip updating the feed for some people who are above the number of reasonable followers. I get that

Seeing them get 96% improvements is insane, does that mean they have a ton of users following an unreasonable number of people or do they just have a very low number for reasonable followers. I doubt it's the latter since that would mean a lot of people would be missing updates.

How is it possible to get such massive improvements when you're only skipping a presumably small % of people per new post?

EDIT: nvm, I rethought about it, the issue is that a single user with millions of follows will constantly be written to which will slow down the fanout service when a celebrity makes a post since you're going through many db pages.

I'm gonna need the remove youtube shorts one

the only safe option anymore is the cup and string

casualties refers to injuries as well as deaths. I think the citation they were looking for was for the ~2800 number. I don't think it's reasonable to say that 6/12 killed were civilians, so half of all casualties were civilian.

We dont know until we get more reports, like you said, it could be higher... but it could also be lower.

I'd imagine they mean a room in a house... or someone's basement in englewood that's in a dumpy spot.

whoa that's very cool. can you share some info about how you set up the integration in ha? would love to explore doing something like this for myself

just watched the first 15 min. this is exactly what I was looking for, thank you!

as a lowly application developer who is interested in how llms actually work, where's a good place to start? is there an article or book that most folks would recommend?

why is that an issue? just in case someone is peering over your shoulder? the pw will be sent in the request body as plaintext on a post...

pretty much the same analogy I always use to describe how I feel about the industry.

gyms are typically softer to give their clientele a feeling of progress. this makes people feel better and want to come back. if you're stuck at v3 for several months you'd be more likely to give up telling yourself you're not cut out for climbing... at least that's my(and many others') theory behind soft gyms

the hell kind of gym are you at that Smith Rock grades feel comparable? that place is sandbagged as hell.

climbing ropes are typically measured in meters and come in increments of 10(ie. 50, 60, 70, 80). that's likely the reason they used metric for the rope length... however I will agree with you that it's a weird choice given this is meant for a mainstream audience

I'm not an electrical engineer but it sounds implausible for power to be transferred that far without losing a bunch of it in the process, unless you have massive cables.

some people use the word abandoned... some people use the word "finished"

do they mean shingles? I am one of 3 people in their 30s that I know of to get shingles... all work in tech. seems like the disease meant for elderly people is becoming more common for young people... anecdotally at least

you should mention it. When I was a junior programmer I also wrote the nested ifs and I had a mentor show me how much cleaner the code could look which I really appreciated. I continue to use this style which is far superior than the one I started with.

you're looking at this from a very narrow perspective in terms of use case... one of my favorite climbing areas near me(shelf road) became a reservation through rec.gov only campground. I used to show up on Saturday morning, pay $7 for one night to camp, and leave Sunday afternoon after my 2nd day of climbing.

as of 2 years ago rec.gov took over and kept the same $7/night rate but added an $8 service fee.

it's complete bullshit for those of us who regularly use government recreational services.

I thought rcs provides this and is supposed to be a better alternative than iMessage... am I mistaken?

pretty sure chrome has had tab grouping for over a year now

if I'm on a route and a free solo climber passes me my first thought is "he better not fall and land on me"

I don't solo regularly but I have soloed a few things(5.6 is the hardest I've soloed if you're familiar with climbing grades).

my answer to this is basically once you've gotten to a certain level in climbing, some of the lower levels feel effortless and it doesn't actually feel risky. As an aside, roping up for some of that easier stuff wouldn't be worth it because it would just take too long.

Take walking up stairs, that feels incredibly easy and risk free to your average person but if you slip and fall down a flight of stairs you will most likely get pretty badly injured or potentially die... but no one puts on a rope to go up stairs because the risk level is so low even if the consequence level is very high.

that's how I feel about soloing and I suspect its how many others feel about it too.

fwiw, climbing hard stuff on a rope is way more fun for me than easy stuff without one but to each their own
