There is no absolute direction for a galaxy’s spin—it’s always relative to the observer’s perspective.

So I’d suspect they’re saying time and distance would need to be factored in rather than just looking at static images relative to our position today since our own spin may have caused a particular galaxy to appear to have been spinning in a different direction at another point in space-time

Nice thing about SQLite is you can “clone” the repository by copying a single file. And in cases where you need incremental sync, you can use an SQLite of diff’s as a single packfile (similar to git).

Things like cr-SQLite also have a lot of potential to make single SQLite per client a lot more viable. But I’m interested to see what you think the problems are? Have you found a solution or alternative?

Is there a public git repo available somewhere that represents a Kart repository?

Are the raw files in the working repository GeoPackages? How is it tracking the changes made inside the geopackages? What happens if it's replaced with an updated copy of the geopackage the was edited via some other application? How does it diff the changes?

This looks neat!

I assume it’s using WASM for browser based web encoding? Is local encoding always guaranteed to be faster or could some internet connections be fast enough that an upload would beat out the client side encoding depending on device capabilities?

Automatic captioning and clipping based on transcripts are great features.

And then things like neural implants and BCIs -- seems like your dog could have language capabilities sooner than you'd think ;)

I wonder if language translation will be one of the "killer apps".

Especially if it can be done real-time and according to the context/level of the audience/listener. Even within the same language, translation from a more technical/expert level to a simplified summary helps education/communication/knowledge transfer significantly.

In scenarios where an individual customer/tenant can have isolated data this makes sense. Is there any reason why the client application itself can't be one of the nodes in the distributed system? Does LiteFS support a more peer-2-peer distribution model (similar to a git repo) where the client/customer's SQLite database is fully distributed to them and then it's just a matter of merging diffs?

Is there any documentation on the native schema used to store the documents. Is it sane enough that you could manually roll your own JSON1 queries in SQL to facilitate more relational join like features?

Why not include C#/MAUI on this list to make it 5?

How do serialization libraries, like Newtonsoft JSON.net, work on platforms like iOS/Blazor/Unity that use AOT? Doesn’t seem like anything special has to be done other than reference the Nuget package and it’s just working?

Don't you think we'll get to the point where individual AI instances will be as ubiquitous as calculators? Or will it always require massive compute power that keeps the generative AI population low?

I do wonder how well (quickly) the whole thought is formed in your head and it’s just the encoding into language that tricks you into thinking you didn’t know what the word would be.

Having learned another language, the moment you start to feel “fluent” is when you start speaking first in the 2nd language and aren’t using your first language as an intermediate step to translate to your 2nd language.
