That's me.

From being an ML Engineer to contributing to a DB project.

Never imagined this timeline but here we go.

[Pekka Enberg @penberg]

99 contributors to Limbo! 🤩

@dadua_daku Before getting into systems programming I was into HPC optimising large scale genomic simulation software and also doing ML modelling. I get nostalgic when I see posts like this from pre6.

[Krishna Vishal @EigenVectorizer]

@dadua_daku Read the code 🗿🗿

[Krishna Vishal @EigenVectorizer]

@theharshpat @TheASF @ApacheIggy Thanks man.

[Krishna Vishal @EigenVectorizer]

That escalated quickly.

You don't actually want job. Nobody dreams of labor. What you want is money. And even money is not what you want. You want the things you can buy with money. But what if you could get the things you want without any money? Anyways, have you heard about robbery?

@PThorpe92 Miss me with that Rust hatred.

[Krishna Vishal @EigenVectorizer]

@uds5501 yo-yo bulk.

[Krishna Vishal @EigenVectorizer]

@uds5501 @ApacheIggy Thanks man.

[Krishna Vishal @EigenVectorizer]

@ApacheIggy's graduation is a testament to its thriving open source community. I’m honored to be part of this journey as we build a fast, efficient, and reliable message streaming platform.

We have more to share in the future. Stay tuned to this space!

There's no reason for software to be slow anymore:

This made my morning.

[Bart Mol @Bart_Mol]

Me explaining AI to friends

[Krishna Vishal @EigenVectorizer]

@DeepknowledgeU Oof. This is just bottom of the barrel behavior.

[boundless ventures @theboundlessvc]

we hosted an AI salon with @amuldotexe and @lossfunk built around a single question.:

what did you believe about AI a year ago that you don't believe anymore?

over 400 people applied to working theories.

we split the carefully curated teams into five-person pods to go deeper. then everyone came back together and shared what their group had landed on. we closed with an open floor. people brought a problem they were actually stuck on, and the room worked through it together.

a few things came up again and again through the afternoon. whether verification matters more than generation now that code writes itself. whether agent evals are quietly becoming the new unit tests. whether judgement has overtaken output as the scarce skill.

thank you to lossfunk for the space and to amul, who steered the room.

stay tuned for the next one.

This is like the subprime of databases…

But most (still) don’t recover the WAL correctly in at least two ways cf.:

1. “Can Applications Recover from fsync Failures?”

2. “Protocol-Aware Recovery for Consensus-Based Storage”

Single node DBs like SQLite can lose committed transactions on storage faults.

And distributed protocols (and DBs built on them) like Paxos and Raft can enter split brain and lose the cluster.

The papers are worth a slow and careful read.

@rishabhm This is essentially price discovery for babus. Probably made the market more efficient.

[Krishna Vishal @EigenVectorizer]

@superchicao10 This is getting too much man. Our development velocity has suffered because of slophub.

[amul.exe @amuldotexe]

This is exceptional feat for an Indian team at a global level - the difference between the first & the second place is significant

[Krishna Vishal @EigenVectorizer]

@uds5501 WTF.

[Krishna Vishal @EigenVectorizer]

There are good number of well maintained opensource DICOM viewers. I've recently used one of them.

Maybe we need to Google first like the old days instead of asking LLMs 😆.

[Paolo Rosson @redp314]

Dentist did a 3D X-ray of my jaw before a root canal and said I wouldn't be able to open the raw data, it needs specialized software. It's 800 DICOM files. Asked Claude Code to make me a viewer. Two prompts later... this is nicer than what he showed me on his screen.
