Worse, half-truths and half-lies.
Ah, a new "WTF": Worse Than False!

“Everything You Expect from a Cloud, Running on Your Terms“*
Except you own ops, management, extension, interoperability, access, security, scalability, redundancy… words cannot express how ridiculous all of the koober propaganda is

To me it looks very much like a scale...
Anyone that works at FAANG or "big"/mobile game studios, anything to do with advertising, banking, natural resources extraction/processing, non-sustansible farming, etc, etc.
In my opinion there are not many constructive things you can work with that really improve society or peoples lives.
But then again I'm in a quite dark place this year.
Public sector? In my country working for the energy grid operator feels like a constructive and positive contribution.
Sorry about your dark place. Keep looking for the light!

Cool, but this is very specific to DataFusion, no? Is there any chance this would be standardized so other Parquet readers could leverage the same technique?
The technique can be applied by any engine, not just DataFusion. Each engine would have to know about the indexes in order to make use of them, but the fallback to parquet standard defaults means that the data is still readable by all.

The folks at Synaktiv had a nice detailed blog post on this same vector last year[1].
The bottom line with these kinds of things is that virtually nobody should be using `pull_request_target`, even with “trusted” machine actors like Dependabot. It’s a pretty terrible footgun.
