For this very reason I also want to invest time in more robust testing. All that said, I do not see any more delays leading to the release at this moment. (2/2)

[Sayan @ohhsayan]

The new Skytable will land by the end of this month. Probably earlier.

Several major low level cluster bugs in the spec that were previously undetected have been detected and fixed. I’m currently working on pushing what will be the final spec for 0.9…(1/2)

I wish the best of luck to my mech keys because they’ll be facing the wrath of active combat shortly.

So I fixed a network partition and grabbed a ham sandwich. And now my sandwich has a bread partition. Oh no!

@miniapeur Logic checks out

[Sayan @ohhsayan]

Great progress again. I keep saying this but indeed - last few steps. I will be finishing up work on the control console, automated testing, pending misc. work & docs this weekend. Monday is the day perhaps?

[Sayan @ohhsayan]

@miniapeur This is so good ... my humor is broken. NB: It however depends on what you're cooking :D

A case enumeration failing that you expected to pass is annoying. However, a case enumeration passing that you expected to fail is terrifying.

Peak %rip sleuthing moment

[Sayan @ohhsayan]

It has to be, by tradition, an incredibly silly error.

[Sayan @ohhsayan]

Isn't it great when your:

1. test suite explodes
2. you compile the test suite target and summon gdb
3. gdb hits a SIGABRT
4. the trace points at a rust proc macro and provides absolutely no information whatsoever?
5. back to caveman style dbg!()

Happy debugging thursday!

[Sayan @ohhsayan]

Happy π day!

Almost ironic how I just turned on the Do Not Disturb focus mode and right at the very point my neighbors started drilling at that very moment XD

There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.

[Sayan @ohhsayan]

Update: huge progress on compat ... I think we should be done with compat by EOD or by tomorrow.

[Sayan @ohhsayan]

And yes, we're actually very close this time.

There's a bunch of things remaining: (1) porting the remaining clustering implementation code from the testing code base to our code base (2) updating client drivers (3) compatibility options (4) documentation.

[Skytable @skytabledb]

Yes, there were delays. Plenty of them.

But they delivered something better: a stack of new features and extensions for faster performance, easier scaling, simpler deployments, and powerful querying.

The new Skytable ships in just a couple of weeks :)

[Sayan @ohhsayan]

I am exploring options to automate documentation generation but since "public API" is not a straightforward construct for a database server, we'll likely have to find some silly way to do it ... for example, we previously used an external file to generate docs. We'll see.
