  • parquet is cloesely tied to the apache foundation, because it was designed as a storage format for hadoop.

    But many data processing libraries offer interfaces to handle parquet files so you can use it outside of the hadoop eco system.

    It’s really good for archiving data, because the format can store a lot of data with relatively low disk space, while still providing ok read performance because often times you won’t need to read the whole file due to how they are structured, where csv files would be a lot of plaintext taking up more diskspace.



  • Tender is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica

    Just started, premise is interesting, i hope Marcos becomes a bit more than our depressed tour guide for this bleak world.

    Berserk by Kentarō Miura Mangas count, don’t they?

    Just got the second volume of the english deluxe edition, and so far the drawings alone where worth the price.

    The first Volume was basically an action packed rush through a grim dark world fighting demons, but the second volume seems to be a flashback to Guts youth and seems to focus more on Guts inner demons and how growing up as part of a mercenary band shaped and damaged the black swordsman we got to know in volume 1.
