I know I mentioned linking things from $FLAKE repo into $HOME which I'm quite happy with. This is the implementation I'm using. It'll replicate a tree subdir into $HOME for you, nothing using home.file.x.recursive so you won't get collisions with folders and stuff 😄
ah this was what you were talking about yesterday! i'm gonna try to roll with some variant of this for a while. long time ago any of my systems were impure hehe | 19:05:22 |
| kraem | LilleCarl (Salsa9): also did you mean https://github.com/PRQL/prql ? in that case we thought about the same project | 19:06:26 |

| lillecarl | It's early work, but it's nice to see either way. SQL has had it's best days | 19:10:06 |
| kraem | yeah i saw that, nice! last time i checked prql i think they were still talking about implementing the postgres layer | 19:10:12 |
| kraem | this (https://github.com/neondatabase/neon) is pretty interesting as well, although not the same thing at all. it basically swaps out the storage layer of postgres, making it distributed and the backing storage is s3 :) | 19:24:28 |
