They are getting shittier and shittier

I was wondering if there’s a way to automatically measure calorie intake—like some kind of biosensor that could be worn on the body. Companies are investigating this I bet!

Congratulations to all PG community!

Can this be used in a way similar to “supercomputers” proposed for Haskel?

coW? So devs can have their ephemeral databases in seconds at no cost? Only the reads and writes they use and the “delta” storage of their thin clone?

Bitenporal support?

Smart anonymization (like Tonic.AI)?

Looking forward to hearing the announcements

Even if a GTP-X will be able to get my description of a system and because it understands the industry lingo and practices create a extremely optimized RUST code, why would we need systems like apps and webapps (like internet bankings) in a world where we all have access to GTP-X?

Like program a KUKA robot to manufacture typewriters in 2023.

How "computer systems" will look like?

Congrats PG team and community

Interesting. I am personally more interested in precise and diverse health sensors, that can measure my health in real time.

Is this the start of a future where we can write high level code (Idris, Agda, Coq) and the resulting code will run as fast (and as safe) as RUST? Interesting.

1. Shorter cold starts 2. Secure environment 3. Heavily tested in production

These are good PROS of Isolate for Serverless Computing, IMHO.

Great list. As I can add anything here, I will say:

- Bitemporal support OOTB (storage would be more expensive, as temporal data needs more disk space)

- CoW capabilities OOTB, so it would be super easy (fast and cheap) to create ephemeral database for development purpose.

- Charge per request (ms of reads, ms of writes) - for the sake of being more specific about serverless.

- AI capabilities that detects the use of the database and suggests indexes or other tweaks to make the database as fast as possible (and cheap), even if schema changes, database size increases or query patterns change

- PostgreSQL support (and all its extensions... I know that's a hard one as PS is based on MySQL)

- OOTB capabilities for Masking and/or anonymizing of data (PCI, PII, etc)

Thanks
