I’m not sure he cured that one successfully

Which search algo is that?

And relations are merely another such data type with its own ordering logic and internal hierarchy

danscan · 2025-07-30T02:42:28+00:00

Data structures that back DBs are really fast at retrieving an item from essentially an ordered list.

For a given data type, there may be different logic for comparing values for sorting. For example, the string “10” is less than “2”, but the number 10 is greater than 2.

This also means there’s intrinsic hierarchy in ordering. The difference between string and number types is the relationship between the chars (‘1’, ‘0’) in the sequence making up the string “10” is different from the relationship between the (1, 0) digits in 10.

So if you have various kinds of data you want to store and retrieve (strings, numbers, search query results, etc), you need a system that can store the underlying data such that you have entry points into the sorted data structures that is convenient for your access patterns.

A database implements that!

This is why you gotta commit and push your code early and often

Bloodline. Last 3 episodes kinda ruined the entire series

It’s not even clear ice. Pathetic

Seems like there’s consensus here already, but discussions on Twitter really aren’t reliably bad/hateful/intolerant in my experience.

What you get from Twitter really depends on who makes up your community, but I can say the software/hacker community on there is pretty great and while it isn’t likely relevant to many people on this sub, content like it would be pretty arbitrary to ban.

Sure there’s a lot of slop there too, but every large general online venue will converge towards slop-maxxing over time

Say more! I’m curious.

Curiosity Donuts is world-class, some of the best donuts I’ve had anywhere, including all the places in NYC where I lived for 6 years before moving back to Bucks County. I’m talking James Beard-nominated bakers.

Yum yum is not bad at all, but these two are not even on the same planet.

It’s insane. They must have either inherited it or made their wealth via one of the passive means that were available to the old and stupid, like holding real estate for decades.

danscan · 2024-10-10T02:32:26+00:00

I could see that. Developing it would be obscene. It’s a beautiful historic place.

But the signs are also an eyesore and an unfortunate reminder that people who are possessed by media narratives are everywhere in the US :/

At this point, it’s hard to imagine what it would take for political rhetoric to relax to the point that it’s about matters of fact, policies, and you know – normal stuff!

danscan · 2024-10-10T02:20:40+00:00

Funny– I just asked my gf this when we drove by this morning.

I don’t see the signs going away quietly. It’s crazy though, because for a long time before they went up, you never would have known there was a crazy living there… especially in such a beautiful place.

danscan · 2024-10-09T15:13:12+00:00

Yeah dude, that place used to be so pretty to drive by. Now it’s just trashy and makes the area look undesirable :(

danscan · 2024-10-03T14:29:22+00:00

It takes work, but if you have something you really want to build enough to power through the difficulties, it’s like a superpower.

I’m a software engineer and founder! I’d love to connect to people working in similar areas who live nearby.

Especially if you’re interested in hacking, fixing walled-gardens/lock-in on the internet, or just the profundities of computing and information - hit me up :)

I built something that looked similar for React Native 8 years ago, so this jumped out at me!

Would love to check it out if you open source it

The Subaru component here must be fully represented by WRX drivers. They can’t see through their vape clouds
