@Justice_Israell@001Adebayor@Sisi_Yemmie What ??? 😳😳
Sorry, but this is funny.
You need to gross over £200k a year to take home £10k monthly… Only about 1% of people in UK earn up to that, are we saying the remaining 99% are not living “averagely comfortable life” ✌️
TIL JavaScript lets you use numeric separators (underscores). You can write one million as 1_000_000 instead of 100000. Same number, way more readable, and it just works out of the box, superb! 🤩
At its core, anything that lets you store & retrieve data is a database. A variable, a file - all qualify. But the moment you care about *how fast*, *how long*, and *how much* data you're dealing with, the data structure underneath starts to matter a LOT.
3. B-Trees - the dominant structure. Reads are predictably fast, thanks to the search tree structure. A 4-level B-Tree can store ~476TB of data 🤯. Postgres, MySQL, and MongoDB all use this.
PS: B-Trees ≠ Binary Trees (I always confused these 😅).
2. LSM-Trees - fascinating architecture. Writes go into a sorted in-memory buffer, flushed to immutable sorted files (SSTables) on disk. Naturally biased toward HIGH write throughput. Cassandra & ScyllaDB are built on this.
I really need to learn how to intentionally scale Postgres... Such a powerful DB but with quite some surprises if not properly tuned for scale. I've come to realize that most of my data headache is a skill issue tbh...
PS: first tweet of the year, happy belated new year 🥳
I’ll take the deal… setting aside property management fees, repair and taxes, I still get > 11% per annum.
Seems like a really good way to invest €110,000 in property.
The deal must also factor that I’m free to sell at prevailing market price in 25 years.
Would you take this deal: I got offered a house in Europe for €110,000. In the middle of a major city, other houses of same size around cost around €500k.
The catch is this - you only get the house, not the land. After 25 years, you have to move out, and you are paid the value of the house at that time.
Rent in the same area for a similar house is around €1,500.
