I think people stop arguing which is a better programming languages for a while, then, recently, they start to argue again on which is a better language for LLM.

Is it a cost disadvantage for being NVMe-backed ?

[saisrirampur → sakesun]

Great question! It really depends on the workload. We already support NVMe instances as small as 4 GB RAM / 2 vCPUs. For HA setups, you could go with one standby (with configurable synchronous replication) or two standbys (cross-AZ, with quorum-based replication). So yes, there is some additional cost from a hardware perspective due to the standbys, but depending on the workload, NVMe performance could offset those costs. On top of this, there’s a separate topic around the reliability/availability promises of separating storage and compute for an OLTP Postgres database.

As I remember, Workday was found when a founder is in his 60s.

LLM should generate to terse and easy to read language for human to review. Beside Python, F# can be a perfect fit.
