Ordered Insertion Optimization in OrioleDB

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-12 02:54:47

When many sessions try to insert into the same B-tree leaf page, classic exclusive page locking serializes progress and wastes time on sleep/wake cycles. We’re introducing a batch page insertion path that lets the session holding the page lock insert for itself and its neighbors. The result: dramatically reduced lock waits, and big gains at high client counts (2X throughput boost starting from 64 clients in our benchmark). In OrioleDB beta12, inserts into a B-tree leaf are performed under an ex

TL;DR Google Phone app users are getting a new feature called “Take a Message.” This feature separates missed or declined calls from spam calls. The app will provide a real-time transcription of the caller’s message and suggestions for next steps to take. Missed calls happen, whether you’re away from your phone or you didn’t hear the ring. And you’re not always in a position to listen to a voicemail. Still, you probably want to know why that person reached out. Even if you declined the call,

Astronomers Discover a Previously Hidden Moon Orbiting Uranus

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-11-13 17:58:03

Astronomers spotted a never-before-seen, bite-sized moon orbiting Uranus, bringing the ice giant’s follower count to 29. The moon is so small and faint—well below the detection threshold of NASA’s Voyager 2 probe—that scientists believe Uranus may host many more undiscovered, tiny moons. The moon, provisionally named S/2025 U1, first entered the view of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) on February 2, 2025. Further imaging led by the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) shows that it sits at

Google said its Pixel Journal uses on-device AI models to prompt users to fill out journal entries. The app can also suggest writing prompts based on memories, past entries, or your goals.

Why email security needs its EDR moment to move beyond prevention

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-11-14 03:01:11

Security leaders today are rethinking email security, not because traditional methods have failed outright, but because the threat landscape and business needs have evolved beyond what legacy approaches can handle. A surprising but apt analogy keeps surfacing: email security is stuck where antivirus (AV) was a decade ago, and it’s time it evolved like AV did, into an element of EDR. The comparison might not be obvious at first. After all, email and endpoints seem like apples and oranges. But

NASA’s new AI model can predict when a solar storm may strike

Early testing of Surya showed it could predict some solar flares two hours in advance. “It can predict the solar flare’s shape, the position in the sun, the intensity,” says Juan Bernabe-Moreno, an AI researcher at IBM who led the Surya project. Two hours may not be enough to protect against all the impacts a strong flare could have, but every moment counts.

Earlier this year, local and national officials gathered for a first-of-its-kind tabletop exercise to test their readiness for a severe solar storm.
