Is there any distributed polars for non Polars Cloud?

EDIT: nevermind see same question in this thread. The answer is no!

Not needing to route cables (or wires) along and/or through the bike frame is a huge improvement. Anecdotally, everyone I know that has adopted Di2 seems to love it. The cost of these systems is negligible for the type of buyer who is shopping for high-end groupsets.

Counterpoint - the benefits of wireless are there but the worry of your unit dying in the middle of a ride now replaces the concern of whether your derailleur is tuned and ready to go. It's easy for a shop to assemble, but now I'm worried about shorting the control unit of my di2 which would be a pricey fix. I have two bikes: one with and one without di2. Both work just as well and one costs much more.

I do love disc brakes though.

I do not know much about DuckDB but it sure looks awesome.

Something I haven't found yet is a small swiss army knife for time series type of data: system and network monitoring, sensors and market data.

I usually put everything in Prometheus but it is awkward.

I would really love to find something I can query intuitively with SQL, have very basic plotting capability, read/parse some log files, can be queried without having to deal with REST/JSON, and support adding data with pushes.

I am wondering if this is not within DuckDB broad capabilities...

Duckdb cannot plot on its own. You would need to bring in matplotlib or some alternative.

Federal receipts as a % of GDP has gone up and down by a few % but is basically unchanged from the 1950’s:

Meanwhile the income tax burden, specifically, has gotten considerably more progressive:

Is figure 4's legend correct from the NTU link? It would seem that the grey is the top 1%, not bottom 50%.

Flipped through the language overview on the website and noticed that matrices are limited in how large they can be because they're stack allocated [1]. Ergonomics of the language otherwise look solid but for my use case that would be fairly constraining

Seems suspicious. If you look at Archive.org, the site was only crawled on December 9, 2024, and not before.

Seeing that too. Will change the title to: "United Healthcare Shooter Unconfirmed Manifesto"

Can change the link to the shooter's personal site: https://pepmangione.com/manifesto/

That would you require to make re-installations if your local app you develop against after every code change. Very few people will want to do that and it’s potentially very slow.

It’s also a step not needed by most other ecosystems.

raoulj · 9 months ago

Yeah. It's too slow. Editable installs make application development much faster.
