@deavid I was pretty entrenched in C++ (wrote a few books) when C# came along, and I saw memory management in a C language, I was hooked. That was 20 years ago. A few books and videos later and I'm still at it.

I worked on web apps for years, and regret now having boxed myself into iOS and Android, but I *really* like #NETMAUI so all is good.

I just finished one of the newest #backroom games, The complex: expedition. I'm amazed on how real it looks, the atmosphere is so good. But I can feel more lost in Minecraft than in there. I finished the game in just 55 minutes. If you know a bit or two about how maps are built, basically you can run through the exit without needing to know where it is. Oh I guess that applying engineering concepts and algorithms removes the fun of getting lost.

But I think this could be easily amended if they take into account the common ways players can navigate maps. Don't make 90 degree corners, put some minor ramps up and down, and force the player to make U turns.

Anyway, I enjoyed the game a lot.

@nosherwan @xblasco This article for #Python #dicts is interesting: https://tenthousandmeters.com/blog/python-behind-the-scenes-10-how-python-dictionaries-work/

For one, it reiterates the time complexity as O(1), but then you can see the graph where it doesn't follow theory when benchmarked.

The article explains why. CPU Caches.

But the underlying question is, should be considered O(1) if in practice doesn't follow it?

@fritshoogland that is very cool, the fact that you are reusing codebase here. That alone tells me a lot!

I am very interested on this, yet I have no applicable use. Hope you don't mind if I ask you a bunch of questions.

Or... if you want to direct me to read something in particular, that's good too 👍

I basically want to know "what are we giving up" when using #Yugabyte instead of #PostgreSQL. (cons on single server and/or low count of servers)

#yugabyte #postgresql

David Martínez Martí @[email protected] · 2022-11-25 · 15:52 UTC

@fritshoogland I wonder, how close is #Yugabyte to #PostgreSQL? Is the query planning as good? does it support the same level of SQL? How well it performs in single-cluster vs postgreSQL?

I would be interested on seeing benchmarks of complex queries with >10GiB databases to see how much performance would be lost compared to #PostgreSQL

If it's not much, Yugabyte might be interesting for DBs that you might to run in cloud, even for regular data sizes, just in case it becomes too big later on.

After having a look at #cockroachdb and #yugabyte database licenses, I find surprised that CockroachDB backtracked and it's now closed software.

But anyway, these two seem both oriented at selling it as a service, not really #foss. Or at least my impression.

There is market for a totally distributed cloud alike #PostgreSQL. And it is doable because at least there are two products out there. #citus seems to be lacking multimaster, and not sure if integrates with #BDR
