The amount of screen space that MS apps waste, like Teams, Loop etc., is nothing less than criminal. I am surprised their UX and product are Okay with this!! #microsoft

Paper read of today: arxiv.org/pdf/2312.101...

Good to see a mention of Aurora DSQL. And the rumors that it was planned to be based on QLDB isn’t quite true. Although it shares certain things with QLDB.
