Impressive write up but we’ve been switching to iceberg more on aws. We’ve gotten a lot of weird errors in #hudi that have been hard to debug. Iceberg seems simpler and performant enough. What’s your experience?
Great paper about pruning from Snowflake: arxiv.org/pdf/2504.11540

Trivia: To run modern-sql.com I've currently 195 SQL systems in my lab and 60000+ test cases.
@aendra.com love your news feed. Just an idea for you. I like seeing all the headlines but would love another feed that just included sources that aren’t paywalled. As much as I would love to support journalism, some of us just don’t have the funds for multiple subscriptions. What do you think?

Do you like databases?
Do you want to hear two database professors rant about them?
Do you need one of those professors to have a Turing Award for databases?
If yes, then join Mike Stonebraker and I next Wed Dec 10 @ 1:00pm EST for database hot takes: www.dbos.dev/webcast-2025...
Wow made it quite a few years…

Bazzite is a remarkably solid and fun distribution for running games on a personal computer, and is good for other desktop tasks as well.
Microsoft Azure CTO Mark Russinovich warns users to know the limits of what LLMs can do, and what they never do. An ACM talk.
