Yeah, as a SWE I just got sufficient money to pay my expenses AND have some to invest quite recently (about 2/1 months ago), but I basically froze the money instead of investing because everything seems overvalued and about to fall (even silver and gold).

I saw the graphs of some silver mining stocks and it seems to just follow silver price, why don't just buy silver then?

I'm kinda new into economy crashes, was a kid in 2008, is there a way to protect of it?

That's on me, I thought it would receive the attention it deserves if people jump straight into the code (and see the "written in Rust btw").

I think a better candidate to prototype would be SQLite, at least to have a better sense of how would bf-tree behave on real world

> You managed to clone the repo an run your test by yourself, whatever the outcome is this is a plus against the standard model for scientific research.

That's so true, which is kinda funny since one of the cornerstone of scientific thinking is reproducibility.

IMHO they're using the best tool for this, nix.

I think you could build an ETL-ish workflow where you use SQLite for OLTP and DuckDB for OLAP, but I suppose it's very workload dependent, there are several tradeoffs here.

Can we even say that Anyblox is a file format? By my understanding of the project it's "just" a decoder for other file formats to solve the MxN problem.
