  • I think SQLite is a great middle ground. It saves the database as a single .db file, and can do everything an SQL database can do. Querying for data is a lot more flexible and a lot faster. The tools for manipulating the data in any way you want are very good and very robust.

    However, I’m not sure how it would affect file size. It might be smaller because JSON/YAML wastes a lot of characters on redundant information (field names) and storing numbers as text, which the database would store as binary data in a defined structure. On the other hand, extra space is used to make common SQL operations happen much faster using fancy data structures. I don’t know which effect is greater so file size could be bigger or smaller.








  • Yeah that wasn’t a great moment, but if you look at the context for that you’ll see that it wasn’t even talking about a black person. It was just an expletive, like saying “motherfucker” or “son of a bitch” etc.

    Keep in mind that outside of USA the N word is not nearly as charged politically and racially as it is within the USA. And PDP is Swedish IIRC, not American.

    Edit: my point is that his usage of that word - which AFAIK only happened once - is not indicative of his character. It’s just indicative that he was really angry at that moment and human brains for some reason use expletives in those cases.





  • I have asked a few times why PDP deserves all the hate. The best answer I got is “look it up yourself”. I did, and the only things I found were many years old, and in each instance (of which there aren’t that many) he apologized publicly and acknowledged that things got out of hand. To me, his apologies seem sincere and genuine - none of that “I’m sorry I got caught” bullshit that actual scumbags are known for.

    I don’t watch PewDiePie but he’s alright best I can tell. If I’ve missed something, please let me know what that is, and be specific because I genuinely can’t find it.
