Seems that ScyllaDB takes advantage of https://seastar.io that shards across cores. It seems to still be open source (for the moment, at least). Wonder if other projects could benefit from its ideas.

Can this plugin work for Chrome on Android? Does anyone have a recommendation for bookmarking and/or webclips on Android?

Very clearly written, though storing files directly in the database (rather than just the filename/path) isn't necessarily the best idea, but I guess it works for them for now..

A canister of hydrogen in your car isn't exactly safe, either!!

I saw a link to this company posted on X and wonder if it's authentic (it seems like it). It's a service that apparently listens on your devices for you to say keywords/phrases and sells that information to advertisers - who then target you with ads. Is this legal? It seems to claim it is.. Can anything be done about this? We need stronger privacy laws, it seems.

So this is obviously a big deal.. But I'm imagining a Black Mirror angle.. Will advertisers buy up some of your background space.. and pay for your intimate reaction data? They'll see how you react to everything in incredible detail. Will you be forced to wear these e.g.: while working and this could turn into some kind of surveillance apparatus with the data shared with your employer? Could interviews be done with these on and you'll be evaluated by AI?
