> InfluxDB 3.0 open source will be called InfluxDB 3 Core, a recent-data engine persisting Parquet files and enabling queries against the last 72 hours of data. Development of Core will carry on under the permissive MIT or Apache 2 license

> InfluxDB 3 Core gives developers a new tool for time series data management—a high-performance recent-data engine optimized for querying the last 72 hours of data. This focused approach enables Core to deliver exceptional performance for real-time monitoring, data collection, and streaming analytics use cases. By optimizing specifically for this pattern, we’ve achieved query response times under 10ms for last-value queries and under 50ms for hour-long ranges.

The limitation of 72 hours of data is a bit disappointing. There are use cases that don't require 50ms query response times, but instead need longer on-prem storge. InfluxDB 1.X and 2.X supported these well. Would it be possible to reduce query performance and extend data retention?

Is there any guidance on a planned EOL for InfluxDB 1.X and 2.X once Core reaches GR?

This article references "custom code." What about custom applications?

Are all government contractors required to provide the source code for all developed applications? Or does this bill only apply to contracts where the deliverables actually include source code?

It will be interesting to see the durability of print vs digital content of time.

Many web properties are no longer accessible due to M&A activity and Small/solo publishers unable or unwilling to maintain their assets. Archives like WayBack Machine mitigates some of the loss of digital content so long as the archives themselves are still maintained.

Will spinning rust be as durable as Microfiche?

Anecdotally, using the Gemini App with "Gemini Advanced 2.0 Flash Experimental", the response quality is ignorantly improved and faster at some basic Python and C# generation.

Eh, Tesls's FSD and Autopilot as well as GM's Supercruise are all classified as SAEJ3016 Automation Level 2.

> I've come to notice that there is no incentive for 3rd party ev-chargers to be dependable.

I don't know, how often would you stop at a gas station if their pumps weren't reliable? Many 3rd party chargers are selling electricity at a mark-up.

Has VMware won any significant customers since Broadcom's acquisition?

This still feels a long way off. I have yet to encounter a charger, not made by Tesla, that has an NACS plug.

Not only sideloading, but there are actual Play Store alternativities already available for Android.
