Where can I go to read about distributed SQL and big JOINs or WHERE IN clauses? I was hoping this article would cover that elephant in the room, rather than Rust being significantly more performant than JVM languages.
Marc Brooker has written and spoken about DSQL quite a bit. It’s still rather high level. I’d expect one or more papers to come out in the next few months, similarly to other Amazon databases.

> The calendar thing is working correctly.
Only from a stubborn, technical perspective. It's obviously not working as intended for GP. It should be easy to create "local timezone" events on Apple devices, and it isn't.
In fact, I'm thinking of pretty much all my events in local timezones. A concert at 8pm. Meeting someone for a coffee at 2pm. Flight departure times. Taking pills at 7am in the morning. Having people in other timezones involved is the exception for me, not the default.
There are many ways how you could implement a nice UI for that, and Apple offers none.
It is possible on macOS with the Floating time zone: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/calendar/icl1035/mac#i...
This doesn’t look possible on the iOS/iPadOS Calendar apps.
What are some use cases that you found are useful?
