Looks promising. I found a music generator called heymusic.ai and was considering subscribing, the songs were fun to make with the kids, but then it disappeared off the face of the earth with no updates anywhere online. I'm cautious of subscribing to AI services, lots of GEN AI startups popping up and it's not easy to make a profit

It doesn't sound like the approaches are incompatible. You can use minhash LSH to search a large set and get a top-k list for any individual, then use a weighted average with penalty rules to decide which of those qualifies as a dupe or not. Weighted minhash can also be used to efficiently add repeats to give some additional weighting.

> doing UPDATE in SQL feels pretty weird, as the default mode of operation of your _business data_ is to delete data, with no trace of who and why!

It's a good idea to version your schema changes using something like liquibase into git, that gets rid of at least some of those pains. Liquibase works on a wide variety of databases, even graphs like Neo4j

I got the same feeling in Erlang many times, once write operations start getting parallel you worry about atomic operations, and making an Erlang process centralize writes through its message queue always feels natural and easy to reason about.

RDFox is worth a try as an alternative, also datalog but C++ based, has incremental reasoning, and explainability. It's a database but also a rules engine that can chain any number of rules. As far as I know datomic is unique for its "query the database at any point in history" and incremental tracking of schema changes, easy to use UDFs, it really shines above other databases in that context.
