A KC friend sends me this for my amusement. That it has become a recognisable joke speaks volumes. Only a short while ago, we would all have responded, "I don't get it. What's the joke?" Now, we get it. That presents a big problem for the government.

Very interesting design of a range filter that learns the dataset’s distribution by sampling keys and storing them in a cache-efficient trie. Uses y-fast tries instead of a traditional trie to achieve an 𝑂(log2 L) number of cache misses for predecessor and successor queries

It’s not “manufactured drama.” The UK is trying to scare the shit out of Americans in order to censor the world’s Internet, and Americans are replying to the UK with hamsters. Sorry, we’re not going to be intimidated out of our rights by UK bureaucrats.

Today is my first day at AWS. I noticed a small bug in DynamoDB clustering implementation and I think I fixed it. Shipped to prod already. Going to make a coffee and will check back if everything is working.

The German company that built the forklift used in the Louvre robbery uses a photo of the heist to advertise itself: “When things need to be done quickly.” 😂😂😂

Don't forget to put your clocks back! And think of the poor workmen who have to reposition Stone Henge every year to compensate for the lost hour. Here they are at the end of British Summertime in 1958.
