🚨Dynamic is joining @FireblocksHQ.
Together, we will give builders a full stack to power the next generation of finance.
Dynamic remains its own brand and product, now backed by Fireblocks’ reach and scale.
This is a big milestone for Lance format.
The F3 paper (https://t.co/cMhvuUa3xO) verified that Lance has THE fastest random access, essential for search, shuffle, and many other AI workloads. But it incorrectly assumed it was because of lack of compression.
With 2.1, we show that, yes indeed you can have your cake and eat it too. Not only does this release come with major improvements on compression without sacrificing performance, it also includes goodies like JSON and better nested data support. It’s also a proof point of how extensible the encodings are in Lance.
You can read our blog post for all the fun details
I’ve been a huge fan of the Netflix engineering blog for a long time. So so excited for @lancedb to be an important part of the multimodal AI transformation in data engineering

@lancedb@changhiskhan Sick... but can a homeless dev get a retweet to draw attention to an app that uses LanceDB under the hood?

@AdtechGod and half the time it's a moldy mess that does more harm than good, but you only find out after you paid, opened the box and it's no longer refundable

OK so this was a TON of fun: we wrote an extension for @duckdb to run @PyTorch models (powered by our @ApacheArrow compatible Lance data format). I’m calling it…drum roll please…peeking duck (i’ll be here all night folks).

This week on Elixir Wizards we are delighted to talk to @dsdshcym, a software developer at @Tubi in Shanghai. Hear about Yiming’s journey to Elixir and the Protocol project that led him to create his own library: Promox. https://t.co/h9H2EFLF8S #myelixirstatus#elixirlang
