But why even bother with ClickHouse? What's wrong with Trino?

Why didn't you just use Iceberg and Trino from the get go (or Paimon if you are fancy)? This has been the accepted answer for quite some time now. The fast OLAP stores just don't scale as well as going object store to a proper query engine like Trino.

ClickHouse is fast OLAP. Just do Iceberg with Trino like a normal big data person. WTF?

Opus 5.5 is great, but you are kidding yourself if Deepseek 4.1 flash isn't as good as good for 99% of coding tasks. Anthropic (and OpenAI) are between a hammer and an anvil in terms of good enough local models being able to run performantly on current and next gen Apple hardware.

I have M1 Maxes (one for work, one for home) that perform as good as new, as far as I can tell. Only thing they lack is an Nvidia GPU. I might pick up the new uber-studio though tmw when it launches (presumably).

Interesting. Nobody on a visa will take the offer, presumably, so it's kind of a workaround for all the immigration controversy.

This analagous to distributed cloud infrastructure that for 99.9% of companies could be replaced with a few servers and a 2-3 node postgres system.

All vulnerabilities should be disclosed immediately, publically. That would over a short time lead to much better security practices.

I'm convinced a small percent of people get addicted to anything much more easily. Ive enjoyed various things but it's like meh- though Ativan is fucking amazing (but only for fear of flying). I think it is a brain reward structure thing; I get bored very easily and i guess it takes a decent amount of danger or effort to get me very interested.
