@pwm @prettygood You could try a vector database, heard those are used for AI. Oh, your data is not vectors? You'd better get yourself an embedding.Or maybe SQL but instead of indexes, AI guesses which pages to fetch from disk?AI could also make query plans.And check for string similarity, instead of this cumbersome `LIKE`Or you know what, feed the whole WHERE clause to AI have it tell which rows match the conditions.The database market could use some disruption, right?/s

@Reiddragon I've never worked directly with it either, only installed as a package as a dependency for something. Its a JSON-like document store kind of database, "nosql" was how people used to call it, I think. Anyway, I don't like it because it takes forever to compile and the compatibility / updates between versions tends to be a shitshow.

@prettygood at university for a project we had a professional dev that was teaching some class about web dev and he made us all use mangodb for it because he was a big fan of it, i don't think we ever managed to have to thing reliably working and it all sounded so dumb to me to use that because we just had some other teacher show us how to use mariadb and it was much easier to have it running. I still don't know to this day if it because he was bad at teaching mangodb or if it just suck

@phnt @swee oddly enough my desktop's signal sqlite DB is 14GB and cruising along happily. Firefox, Thunderbird, Evolution, wallabag, freshrss, a few others, all went down in flames at some point, sometimes multiple times.

@prettygood @swee Are you using a full DE? Because mine always implodes because Signal gets confused what secrets store its supposed to use for decrypting the DB and once it fails once at that, 90% it cannot be recovered.Yes, I literally have the secrets store hard-coded in my keyboard shortcut, but it still randomly decides to use something else.

@prettygood @swee They are probably doing more than running /usr/lib/pam_kwallet_init on startup, so it would make sense. But kwallet always worked when Signal imploded.Also death to any application that requires gnome-keyring or kwallet to store login credentials. Looking at you Nextcloud.
