Awesome, Camille

Anyway: If you hint, even jokingly, that a woman got a promotion, award, acceptance or recognition for any reason other than fully deserving it on merit. You are an asshole.
You also shouldn't say that to dudes. Except it seems like dudes rarely get that, so we are good there.

@JordanALewis @CockroachDB I look forward to both of those index types

[Jordan Lewis @largedatabank]

Please tune in tomorrow for LARGE DATA BANK #2 (hacking on @CockroachDB) @ around 3 PM! https://t.co/GrGWiAPGq8

Tentative plan:
1. Finish up array inverted index stuff
2. If we're feeling ambitious... start a ~partial index implementation~

Anything else you want to see?

[Jordan Lewis @largedatabank]

ok I fully expect this Twitter Poll to get exactly 0 responses but here goes

would you expect the query to use the inverted index or not?

CREATE TABLE a (pk INT PRIMARY KEY, j JSONB);
CREATE INDEX ON a USING GIN (j);
SELECT * FROM a WHERE j IS NULL;

[Jason Brown @jasobrown]

@cheeseplus fwiw, that is the correct response

I’m desperately trying to find people who worked on MS BOB or Clippy for interviews but I’m striking out, y’all. I just re-emailed the designer who created Clippy. Just know that I’m trying. 💖 If anyone has any leads, please LMK! Please RT for help!

Flight attendant: Is there a Dr. on this flight?

Dad: *nudging me* that should've been you

Me: Not now Dad

Dad: Not looking for a hard reset, are they?

Me: Dad, there’s an emergency

Dad: Go and see if using "git reset --hard HEAD" will help
