"Building for the future"... then, "we're firing 1K+ people."

What a BS.

So you're saying it's pretty low quality because it failed specifically to parse PDFs?

You got a point.

IIRC, multiple writers in SQLite is supported, their writes will just be serialized. What you don't have is concurrent writes. But, given SQLite writes are so fast, in practices it's not really a big deal.

If you haven't used SQLite in a real project with heavy writes, I'd say you do it. SQLite is WAY more powerful than people tend to think of it.

SQLite is abolutely amazing as an app format! I couldn't list how many tools are available to read SQLite data, or how easy and friendly they are. Even its CLI does wonders when you're dealing with data with it. SQLite has been around for 20+ years and is one of the most heavily tested softwares in the world.

SQLite is very simple, yet very reliable and powerful. Using SQLite as file format might be the best decision an engineer can take when it comes to future-proofing preservation of data.

I wouldn’t say it’s so intuitive. We need more of these articles coming in — I learned nice things from this text, specially about the exact match over partial indexes, and to always QUERY EXPLAIN instead of assuming you’re right (my case haha).

What’s obvious for you might not be for someone else.
