Ah yes, the riveting tale of stumbling upon 7 TiB of memory like a kid finding candy in a sofa 🛋️. Because clearly, the best way to optimize infrastructure is to let #terabytes gather dust while you scratch your head in a "high-stakes" debugging scavenger hunt 🕵️‍♂️. Genius! 🙄

Ah yes, the future of data querying: running DuckDB-WASM in your browser to chew through #terabytes like it’s 1999 🦖💻. Because nothing screams "cutting-edge" quite like cramming a data warehouse into a tab next to your 50 open Reddit threads. 🤦‍♂️🚀

It seems you can #download #books and magazines for free from the #internet, once you are big enough.

»details around the #torrenting were murky until yesterday, when #Meta's unredacted #emails were made public for the first time. The new evidence showed that Meta torrented "at least 81.7 #terabytes of data across multiple shadow libraries through the site Anna’s Archive, including at least 35.7 terabytes of data from Z-Library and #LibGen," the authors' court filing said. And "Meta also previously torrented 80.6 terabytes of data from LibGen."«

Pregunta técnica, tecniquers del mastodon

Conocéis cómo va la empresa de alojamiento “internxt”?

Son de valencia, tienen precios buenos, parece que cifrado nosequé y bajo ley protección de datos etc

Pero la estamos probando en la cooperativa y va fatal, y no está habiendo buena comunicación y ya no estamos seguros de si seguir embarcados ahí

It turns out that using #HDF5 needs some cleanup routines – that's totally okay, but I have plenty of #Terabytes that worked without 🤔
