On the surface (I haven't tested it) it looks like a great cost and runtime saver, but only for data sets that need a cadence above 5 or so minutes. You wouldn't be able to have a refresh button to get the "latest" data outside this window, depending on size and build time? Wondering if you can apply a hybrid approach, combining the historical parquet file with a live query.

Same in Canada. lol

How much is a scan going to cost? The video motions petabyte per scan? These types are scans (medical images) are extremely dense and large in size, storing short or long term images sounds like its going to be extremely expensive when combined with AI analysis, etc. Not to Mention the cost of operating a Spa is not cheap, especially if your buying real estate, and the cost of the machine itself.

Is this a dystopian Spa, where full scans cost 50k, and basic ones are 1-5k?

You mean llia Polosukhin, who is recognized as an AI founder and co‑authored the landmark 2017 paper “Attention Is All You Need" while at Google Research? /s ?

They are funding alternatives to ASML. ASML has hit a wall and it co-insides with a new innovation based policy, to bring America back to a tech leadership role. This is a critical economic and security policy, they are pouring billions into this tech as we speak. To think that ASML will continue to have a monopoly would be the actual insane thing.

Correct, but these fees are trending up and not down, its not uncommon in this space to see payment fees hitting 15%. Removing the primitives of payment requirements, rails which are hard to build and practicably a monopoly, would free the state, this would power end-users instead of building more monopolies.

Imagine you have a home on Airbnb , your guest sends you a payment, but its not directly to you, the payment goes through the payment rails stipulated and controlled by airbnb. This amounts to what is often 25-35% of your listening fee (payment charges, visa network, listing fee, etc, etc.) This is the middle men crypto is supposed to replace.

Only a trustworthy network can replace the current system, it must be something public, immutable and participatory , otherwise it will just centralize back to the above scenario, regardless of any intent. Essentially crypto is network code, it creates the primitives on transmission. And thus anyone (really anyone) can run a node and get a reward for supporting this security model. That's not a scam or even just pragmatic, its literally how money operates, as a incentive/disincentive mechanism.

People forget the early stock market was filled to the brim with scams, the original intent was good, but it attracted bad actors piggy backing in its lack of regulations, and it took years to clean-up, one can make an easy argument that's its still filled with fraud.

Agree, also the logging is very limited across the board,, database functions are impossible to debug without good logging, I think a lot of people don't realize its not a direct copy of Postgres, for the cloud version several Postgres functions are disabled by default.

99.9% of app on app store connect to the network for a multitude of reason, do you really think only browsers connect to the internet? Do you not have an app on your phone?

This isn't obvious, 99% of apps make multiple calls to multiple services, and these SDK's are embedded into the app. How can you tell whats legit outbound/inbound? Doing a fingerprint search for the worst culprits might help catch some, but it would likely be a game of cat and mouse.

Install a network monitor or go even deeper and sniff packets.

That's what cold storage is. And more than likely cold storage they requires multiple signatures, to prevent any single entity from being compromised.
