Before we discuss what VACUUM does and its implications, we need to understand how data is actually stored on disk. What happens when a tuple is inserted, updated, or deleted? Understanding this will help us understand what VACUUM does, why it’s needed, and its implications. Tuples, Page & TOAST A tuple in database ...

Okay, promises, promises. Here's the first of my bucket list projects I'm completing which I've intermittently worked on for literally two decades. Now that I've finally shaken out more bugs, tuned it up and cleaned it off, it's time to let people play with the source code. This is the official 1.0 release of the In...

Tasks are the wrong abstraction

Okay, so you've probably read the title and are thinking: "Hey is this clickbait?" - and no dear reader, it is not. I'm fairly convinced at this point that tasks, as an abstraction, are not right for Rust and we would do better to achieve parallel execution through composition.

This quarter, I'm being funded by Clojurists Together to build out jank's lazy sequences, special loop* form, destructuring, and support for the for and doseq macros. Going into this quarter, I had only a rough idea of how Clojure's lazy sequences were implemented. Now, a month in, I'm ready to report some impressiv...

With the Nix project currently undergoing major turmoil, it’s good to remind ourselves that everything is transient: Every project, no matter how technically sophisticated, will eventually fade away, but its best core ideas can - and should - be identified, documented, and get to live on in other projects. So, if ni...

The Depraz mouse is a damn stylish piece of equipment: Produced in the early 1980s, it was used in several systems, but to me the most interesting was the Blit and its descendants, the DMD 5620 and others. (By the way, if anyone who happens to read this should have one of these terminals for sale… contact me!) I rec...

Free-tier pricing is a common marketing strategy. “Free” gets people in the door and allows them to settle in and see how things work. But, as Juan Diego Rodriguez explains, the practice of free tiers is often conflated with free trials. And while the distinction may be nuanced, the consequences of sunsetting free-t...
