I've been building data systems for long enough to be skeptical of “revolutionary” claims, and I’m uncomfortable with grandiose statements like “Built for the AI Era”. Nevertheless, AI workloads have tipped us into what I'll call the Third Age of data systems, and legacy platforms can't meet the moment. Three Eras of Data Systems In the beginning, databases had human-scale inputs and human-scale outputs. Postgres—the king of databases, first released in 1989[1] —is the archetypal application d

Porsche’s insanely clever hybrid engine comes to the 911 Turbo S

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-13 04:00:58

Today, Porsche debuted a new 911 variant at the IAA Mobility show in Munich, Germany. It's the most powerful 911 to date, excluding some limited-run models, and may well be the quickest to 60 mph from a standing start, dispatching that dash in just 2.4 seconds. And it's all thanks to one of the most interesting hybrid powertrains on sale today. Rather than just bolting an electric motor to an existing 911, Porsche designed an entirely new 3.6 L flat-six engine, taking the opportunity to ditch t

Interruptions cost 23 minutes 15 seconds, right? 2023-11-05 You’ve likely read lots of blog posts stating that it takes 23 minutes and 15 seconds to get back to work after an interruption, context switch, or meeting. Thus, “do you have five minutes” ends up not only costing those few minutes, but instead about half an hour. But where does that number come from?

‘The Penguin’ Team Had Talks About Bringing in Robert Pattinson’s Batman

Almost a year has passed since audiences were first exposed to HBO’s The Penguin, and to call it a success would be an understatement. The show didn’t just find fans among critics and audiences alike; everyone involved has been swimming in awards ever since, with its recent 24 Emmy nominations being the latest. And yet, before its release, many were skeptical of the show. Why would we want to see this story? And did it make sense to do a Batman villain story without Batman himself? To that last

Debounce

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-12-04 12:04:13

Debouncing, in the context of programming, means to discard operations that occur too close together during a specific interval, and consolidate them into a single invocation. Debouncing is very similar to throttling. The key difference is that throttling enforces limits on continuous operations, while debouncing waits for invocations to stop for a specific time to consolidate many noisy invocations into one single invocation. A typical use case of debouncing is when responding to user input.

Earth’s Unusual Rapid Spin Could Prompt First-Ever ‘Negative Leap Second’

The Earth has been spinning unusually fast recently.

Tesla profits pulled down by falling EV sales and regulatory credits

techcrunch.com Kirsten Korosec 2026-01-04 14:48:04

Falling EV sales combined with a lower average selling price, less revenue from regulatory credits, and a decline in solar and energy storage revenue took a toll on Tesla’s bottom line during the second quarter of 2025. And a 17% growth in revenue in its services business, which includes cash generated from its Supercharging network, wasn’t enough to close the gap. The company reported Wednesday revenue of $22.5 billion, a 12% decline from the same period last year. The company’s second quarter
