Had a blast speaking about query.farm at the #DuckDB Amsterdam Meetup #3 where I had time to spend some time with my heroes @carlo.piovesan.io @samansmink.bsky.social @szarnyasg.org Tania Bogatsch and so many more awesome people! Thank You @duckdb.org for giving space to the community! #opensource

📈 DuckDB 1.4.0 is out! This is our first LTS release which comes with *one year of community support*. It also supports database encryption, the MERGE SQL statement and Iceberg writes. For more details, read the announcement blog post at duckdb.org/2025/09/16/a...

Interesting. QEMU 10.1 supports WASM and can run inside a browser. 🤔 wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/10.1

We are holding the DuckDB Amsterdam Meetup next week, featuring talks by @rolandbouman.bsky.social, Tania Bogatsch and @qxip.bsky.social: www.meetup.com/duckdb/event... The event is already at capacity but consider joining the wait list because there are always last-minute RSVP cancellations.

Today is exactly twelve years ago since we created the lib/http2.c source file in the #curl source tree, and doing HTTP would never be the same again. The paradigm shift going from one transfer per connection to possibly multiple transfers per connection was massive and took many years until […]

New blog post on how Streamplace indexes ATProto, with my take on some PDS additions we could make to improve the ecosystem!

Thanks to @qxip.bsky.social for the httpserver extension!

Absolutely brutal AWS / cloud story. www.seuros.com/blog/aws-del...

I really wish there was a way to make #opensource again without money and greed poisoning everything. We're just as strong as the weakest link and this washed out culture of calling everything open for marketing puts our society at great risk. Humans must fight to save opensource from extinction.

The open-core as "enterprise" gateway drug trick abusing #opensource labels for VC gains is officially about to be over. What used to take years to write now takes hours and filling the gap between "open core" and "enterprise" features using LLMs is very possible as long as the license allows it ..🧵

Trending app can turn a $3000 machine into a $1 scale

Clickhouse adds experimental support for Iceberg writing after everyone else did and their "glory shot" confirms they no longer care about performance in their opencore subproduct

How to get clicks in the summer

#GigAPI Assistants are in open beta! Designed to figure out data and timeseries ingested in GigAPI w/ BYO models, resources, compute local or remote. From zero to dashboard widget in < 30s and we're only just beginning! @gigapipe.bsky.social #timeseries #duckdb #gigapi #gigapipe #olap #llm #agent

InfluxDB3 Community Builds are resumed for the open source community to leverage! The unlocked community releases (binary + docker) drop most of the "open core" limitations: github.com/metrico/infl... #datafusion #arrow #flightsql #influxdb3 #iox

🐤 duckdb-rs v1.3.2 is here! Highlights: DuckDB v1.3.2 core update, improved Arrow integration, enhanced Inserter trait, interrupt handling support, and lots of internal tooling updates. github.com/duckdb/duckd...

In terms of DuckDB Community Extensions statistics, it seem 400-500 downloads/month is basically the zero line (builders, CI, etc?) above which you see real users. There's a big difference between extensions used by a few dozens and few thousands but unfortunately the stats don't tell us where from

Next week we'll drop our AI Agent integration into #GigAPI - our infinite timeseries lake - and while it's tempting to jump on the AI lingo bus and announce this is "Cursor for Timeseries" it's actually a lot more! 🔥 github.com/gigapi

Due to stupid regulations, E-Step scooters (aka no pedals) are basically illegal in the Netherlands. But luckily a company named Selana has solved this huge problem! FOR JUST 1900 EUROS you can get a shitty legal scooter with a tag and mirror. What a steal!!! In pre-oder because its NEW TECH 🤣🤣🤣

#Gigapipe is ready for #Grafana12 Drill-Downs! This quite exciting as it completely changes the Grafana game particularly for new users which can now browse around logs, metrics, traces and profiles without typing or knowing much! As always we're the first to support this feat @gigapipe.bsky.social

Weekend Fun: Inspired by xarrayvideo, videoparquet attempts converting very basic Parquet files to video files and back, using ffmpeg and advanced data handling techniques for compression (~25x) 3-channel ffv1+gbrp16le supported for near-lossless ops (<0.001) github.com/lmangani/vid...

Good #DuckDB vibes in today's Drop given all the horrible that happened today and this week in general. — DuckPlot is a useful ObsPlot+DuckDB homunculus — The DuckDB Viz MCP == no SQL req'd interactive dataviz — DuckDB-QuickJS extension adds serious JS powers to DuckDB queries

The GigAPI MCP Server is here and ready to dive into your infinite timeseries lake from your favourite LLM sidebrain github.com/gigapi/gigap... #mcp #timeseries #gigapi #duckdb #parquet #apache

🛠️ A new updated and improved documentation for webrtcperf is now available here vpalmisano.github.io/webrtcperf/ ✨ Bonus - try the new AI prompt: ``` webrtcperf --prompt "run a 2min test with 2 sessions connected to 'https://...' limiting the 2nd session upstream at 1Mbps with 1% packet loss" ```

@saghul.bsky.social this one's dedicated to you! A pinch of QuickJS-NG inside a DuckDB Extension. Nobody asked for it and nobody might ever use it but it exists and runs basics 🤟 github.com/quackscience...

I rather not have my Open Source projects' communication live or die at the mercy of Salesforce (Slack). Seems Kubernetes' slack gets to live for now. https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/communication/slack-migration-faq.md

No more observability nightmares! Switch to #Gigapipe gigapipe.com

#GigAPI features experimental LLM API backends to chat with your timeseries and query results with both local and remote support 🔥 straight out of the GigAPI UI - as always 100% open source @gigapipe.bsky.social

Unpopular opinion on the lake: a database should not require using a second database.

We all have a few glitches or a bad SQL query here and there in our opensource demos. Just don't feel too bad - evidently even the VC powered billionaires can't get a demo right using their OWN stack and their OWN demo data LOL 🤣

Finally a useful automation from ClickHouse Cloud 🤣

Fun Fact of the day: Its been 2360 days of pioneering observability! It all started at the end of 2018 with cLoki (Loki for ClickHouse) later evolving into qryn (and a long story of C&D attacks and heavy acquisitions turned down) and finally becoming our polyglot stack Gigapipe @gigapipe.bsky.social

Blogged: Kamailio World 2025 Thoughts www.fredposner.com/kamailio-wor...

On Saturday, I built a DuckDB extension that embeds a v8 javascript runtime and exposes a few table functions. You can pass arbitrary js code & natural language prompts for which js code is generated and ran.

So dead around here! Is the bsky wave of interest over already? Near zero engagement on this and other profiles, near zero posts by peers we're following.

My talk at the #OpenSIPS Summit on some core changes to the SIP and NoSIP plugins in #Janus will take place soon: if you're interested, make sure to follow the live stream! www.youtube.com/watch?v=lN96...

GitHub MCP suffers from the lethal trifecta for prompt injection: access to private data, exposure to malicious instructions + the ability to exfiltrate information Be really careful with this stuff: attackers can trick your "agent" into stealing your private data simonwillison.net/2025/May/26/...

Today we're launching DuckLake, an integrated data lake and catalog format powered by SQL. DuckLake unlocks next-generation data warehousing where compute is local, consistency central, and storage scales till infinity. ⁠ducklake is an open standard and we implemented it in the "ducklake" extension.

Glitch will be going down soon.... developed so many little p2p apps (and hacks) with friends on Glitch and even paid the subscription for a while. Even with its little limits, it will be missed! #glitch

Finally a video making a good case for LLM generated speech to replace insufferable human voices. One of the worse attempts at a return ever. And oh, R1 is still a piece of junk.

The latest GigAPI release includes a new awesome SQL User-Interface (a child of Duck-UI) to query data and time series stored in our infinite lake house with DuckDB and our lightweight 🧊 icecube metadata engine. Fast, Beautiful and Simple to manage, deploy and scale. Open Beta github.com/gigapi

"thank you for your existence" - I do get lovely emails as well in my #inbox https://daniel.haxx.se/email/2025-05-20.html

Goodbye Soundcloud 👋 Hello #soundSky ☁️

"Holy $^#& Databricks just acquired Neon!" a few hours later "Today we're announcing the launch of a new PostgreSQL platform... " LOL at the instant pivoters 🤣 keep on trying

#GigAPI 2.0.16 is out with several improvements to our open infinite time series parquet write/query engine compatible with InfluxDB3/IOx: - Embedded Query UI - All-in-One mode (rw, ro, compact, aio) - Refactor of settings - Latest DuckDB engine Next: Plugins support 🔥 github.com/gigapi/gigapi

I got @duckdb.org running on @cloudflare.social Containers 😍

I just uploaded my slides for the talk I gave at Kamailio World 2025. I introduced RTP over #QUIC ( #ROQ ) and my new #imquic library, with a few observations on what future this may have, if any (especially considering most of the focus is on #MoQ instead) www.slideshare.net/slideshow/rt...
