You’ve basically already left, whether you know it or not. Yesterday they nuked their services database. I’d been there ~20 years, but it’s dead. Libera.chat has been lovely.

Think of it like buying a signed print of a photo, instead of the photo itself, but the “signature” is an entry in a database and that’s all you get. Still dumb.

The lospec palette list is a database of palettes for pixel art: [[https://lospec.com/palette-list]] #links #pixelart #color

huh. it seems that dumping + gzipping a SQLite database can sometimes have better compression than gzipping the SQLite database directly. cool. #sqlite

Baserow: Open source online database tool https://gitlab.com/bramw/baserow #airtable alternative ⌘ https://baserow.io/

here is the script I use to convert my twtxt feed into a SQLite database: !twtxt_sqlite

a unique thing I do with my twtxt feed is convert it to a SQLite database. This, combined with the Janet + SQLite scripting abilities available in SQLite, could provide interesting metrics and insights over time.

Is there a term for absurd euphemisms constructed for censoring dialogue for television – like ‘melon farmer’ and ‘this is what happens when you meet a stranger in the alps’? Is there a database of them?

Are there enough shared answers in the jeopardy questions & answers database to make a ‘Ladies, if he X, then he’s not your man, he’s Y’ bot from that corpus? Assume 4 questions per answer.

Bad idea of the day: a database of maps of conceptual spaces that are drawn like maps of physical spaces (ex., xkcd’s map of the internet & Knuppe’s map of the fields of mathematics)

I love it. I have a program that needs to processing about half a million records, which will take 3 days. The database that all those records are suppose to go to is acting up after I’ve just done 140K records.

While certainly not a solution to everything, I find I’m using temporary SQLITE database a bunch to solve problems with a few lines of sql and less then 50 lines of code (to insert data into the SQLITE DB) instead of several hundred of lines of code and a bunch of arrays.

@sdk@codevoid.de I have to admit that’s true. While I don’t call myself an expert, I almost always wore several hats at places I’ve worked. Programmer, Server Admin, Network Admin, Cable Puller, Telephone Admin, PBX installer, Database Admin, etc

@kdy I kinda hope people don’t mess with the timestamp, I use it as part of a UNIQUE constraint in the database for my site: https://git.xeserv.us/xena/twtxtlist/src/master/src/twtxtlist.nim#L14-L20

a nice side effect of all this is that you can reconstruct the data instantly, so my sqlite database can actually be quite volatile
