The last two weeks have been hectic! Learned a lot of Go, delved into the docs for the AWS S3 API, implemented a few basic actions, along with SigV4 (with multi-chunk upload support), and setup a GitHub Org to collab with a friend on this project. 🚀

Learning Go to build an object store has been a really cool experience so far. At first, I thought that Go's syntax was a little weird, but now it just feels normal, and it flows quite well. Already have some basic requests working, but nothing too fancy to share yet!

This week I had fun making another video about DuckLake. It's scheduled to come out next Tuesday, so stay tuned! Love the duck! 💛🦆

In a new guest blog post, Mark Harrison (Madhive) presents Frozen DuckLakes. These are read-only DuckLakes that only require object storage and are frozen in time. He shows a process for creating and freezing DuckLakes, and demonstrates their use and performance.

Just noticed that KùzuDB got archived on GitHub. Its website now points to GitHub Pages, and documentation is gone! Also, their Discord server was shutdown. What could this mean? Layoffs? Closing source code due to monetization efforts? kuzudb.github.io

South Korea just lost their government data. Expired batteries started a fire, and they didn't have an offsite backup... 3-2-1 rule guys! #DevOps youtu.be/pGjXwvD9tB4

If you're still using a Makefile or custom language-based solutions like npm or uv scripts, then you must take a look at just! This is a tool I recently adopted and will, most likely, keep using in my future projects. just.systems

I am now running GitLab on a VM with 4 cores and 8 GiB RAM, and it seems to be stable, finally. But I'm not too happy about it. It's feeling bloated, a bit of a resource hog. Hopefully its features will make up for the amount of resources I had to let go.
My self-hosted GitLab instance suddenly went crazy. CPU was hitting 100% nonstop, and it kept freezing after navigating to certain pages on the UI (clearly when trying to load data). I kept having to reset the VM to regain access via SSH.

Did you ever notice, when using Docker Desktop in Windows that sometimes it will hang for a while on stop or restart? This is usually because it's reclaiming disk space by compacting its virtual hard disk (vhdx). Check your disk activity, if you think it's hanging. #docker #windows #vhdx

Currently working on a video series on data lab infrastructure for your tiny home lab. Every data person needs a toolbox! You’ll learn a lot about infrastructure provisioning, and we’ll essentially cover basic cloud concepts on our own hardware. And yes, there will be a DuckLake!
