Will Amazon S3 Vectors kill vector databases or save them?

Not too long ago, AWS dropped something new: S3 Vectors. It’s their first attempt at a vector storage solution, letting you store and query vector embeddings for semantic search right inside Amazon S3. At a glance, it looks like a lightweight vector database running on top of low-cost object storage—at a price point that is clearly attractive compared to many dedicated vector database solutions. amazon s3 vectors.png Naturally, this sparked a lot of hot takes. I’ve seen folks on social media

Small Objects, Big Gains: Benchmarking Tigris Against AWS S3 and Cloudflare R2

One of Tigris's standout capabilities is its performance when storing and retrieving small objects. To quantify this advantage, we benchmarked Tigris against two popular object stores—AWS S3 and Cloudflare R2—and found that Tigris consistently delivers higher throughput and lower latency. These gains let you use a single store for everything from tiny payloads to multi-gigabyte blobs without sacrificing efficiency. Under the hood, Tigris accelerates small-object workloads by (i) inlining very s

I can't go back to grainy night vision after testing this security camera

ZDNET's key takeaways The EufyCam S3 Pro is available separately for $220 or in a two-pack with the HomeBase 3 for $550. This EufyCam is an excellent 4K outdoor security camera that delivers on its night vision promises, features no monthly fees, and has dual motion detection to reduce false alerts. The biggest downsides are that the camera is expensive, especially when you bundle it with HomeBase 3, and its resolution drops to 1080p with HomeKit. $549.99 at Amazon Eufy Security launched a ne

Vibe-Coding a PCB – surprisingly good

After "vibe coding" a software-based vibing button in my last video, I decided to take things one step further: vibe-coding the actual hardware. The challenge? Let AI design a working ESP32-S3 development board, from scratch. Tools of the Trade For this experiment, I used Atopile — a tool that lets you define a hardware project using code and turns it into a KiCad PCB. I also enlisted Claude, an AI coding assistant that seemed to outperform Cursor for this task. The Prompt The board needed t

Ptar: Replacing .tgz for petabyte-scale S3 archives

Hi, I’m Julien, co-founder of Plakar. Before we built this, I spent years as an engineer and later as a manager of infra teams. We handled backups, compliance, and recovery. In every place, startups, big companies, regulated sectors, I saw the same routine: tar -czf archive.tgz /some/folder We all love that command. But in 2025, it can cause trouble. What’s changed since .tgz was invented Back when tar came out in 1979 or even gzip came out in 1994, things were simple: Data was small, jus

This thumb-sized accessory gave my old PC an instant speed boost (and double the storage)

The heatsink makes the drive rather bulky, and you will need a 4-pin fan header on the motherboard to power the fans. $169.99 at B&H Photo-Video In the not-so-distant past, the solution for speed-boosting an aging and sluggish PC was to add more RAM or upgrade the processor.

A native PS3 emulator for Android is available on the Play Store

We're another step closer to getting PlayStation 3 games to run smoothly on an Android smartphone. A little-known developer has released aPS3e, a PS3 emulator that can natively run on Android, onto the Google Play Store. Independent developers have been creating ways to emulate our favorite nostalgic hits on PS3, but offering a direct way to do it on an Android device is a major step in the emulation world. Before you dive in, it's worth noting that aPS3e suffers the same issues as other emulat
