• Analyzing multi-gigabyte JSON files locally

  OctoSQL[0] or DuckDB[1] will most likely be much simpler, while going through 10 GB of JSON in a couple seconds at most. Disclaimer: author of OctoSQL [0]: https://github.com/cube2222/octosql. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• DuckDB: Querying JSON files as if they were tables

  This is really cool! With their Postgres scanner[0] you can now easily query multiple datasources using SQL and join between them (i.e. Postgres table with JSON file). Something I strived to build with OctoSQL[1] before. It's amazing to see how quickly DuckDB is adding new features. Not a huge fan of C++, which is right now used for authoring extensions, it'd be really cool if somebody implemented a Rust extension... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Show HN: ClickHouse-local – a small tool for serverless data analytics

  Congrats on the Show HN! It's great to see more tools in this area (querying data from various sources in-place) and the Lambda use case is a really cool idea! I've recently done a bunch of benchmarking, including ClickHouse Local and the usage was straightforward, with everything working as it's supposed to. Just to comment on the performance area though, one area I think ClickHouse could still possibly improve... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Command-line data analytics made easy

  SPyQL is really cool and its design is very smart, with it being able to leverage normal Python functions! As far as similar tools go, I recommend taking a look at DataFusion[0], dsq[1], and OctoSQL[2]. DataFusion is a very (very very) fast command-line SQL engine but with limited support for data formats. Dsq is based on SQLite which means it has to load data into SQLite first, but then gives you the whole breath... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Steampipe – Select * from Cloud;

  To add somewhat of a counterpoint to the other response, I've tried the Steampipe CSV plugin and got 50x slower performance vs OctoSQL[0], which is itself 5x slower than something like DataFusion[1]. The CSV plugin doesn't contact any external API's so it should be a good benchmark of the plugin architecture, though it might just not be optimized yet. That said, I don't imagine this ever being a bottleneck for the... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• I'm writing a new vector search SQLite Extension

  Could this be implemented in Rust? Does that project (sqlite-loadable-rs) support WASM? https://observablehq.com/@asg017/introducing-sqlite-loadable-rs. - Source: Hacker News / 10 days ago

• Show HN: An extension to track your Wikipedia adventures

  Have you tried out a tangled-tree visualization? [1] I've found it to be super useful when visualizing these sorts of relationships in a compact way. [1] https://observablehq.com/@nitaku/tangled-tree-visualization-ii. - Source: Hacker News / 10 days ago

• A feature-rich front-end drag-and-drop component library

  Maybe I'm easy to impress, but I always stop and play around with the nested tree example when I come across Sortable. It works so flawlessly, and feels very tuned to mobile dnd. It even works to arrange (and reflow) inline spans in a paragraph! I have yet to come across this functionality in a text editor..

• Parquet-WASM: Rust-based WebAssembly bindings to read and write Parquet data

  Arrow JS is just ArrayBuffers underneath. You do want to amortize some operations to avoid unnecessary conversions. I.e. Arrow JS stores strings as UTF-8, but native JS strings are UTF-16 I believe. Arrow is especially powerful across the WASM <--> JS boundary! In fact, I wrote a library to interpret Arrow from Wasm memory into JS without any copies [0]. (Motivating blog post [1]) [0]:... - Source: Hacker News / 20 days ago

• A flat map with the least error possible: The Gott-Goldberg-Vanderbei projection

  Here’s the D3 implementation (which is just an interrupted azimuthal equidistant projection): https://observablehq.com/@d3/azimuthal-equidistant-hemispheres. - Source: Hacker News / 21 days ago
