Same happens for safari on latest iOS!

Are you saying druid hardware costs were coming out to be 10x of clickhouse hardware costs?

Caveat: English is not my first language so might have missed your point in translation. :)

That's right, yeah. We would have had to buy 10x the servers in order to support the same workload that clickhouse could.

Hey man, ignore the comment above, I hope things get better quickly and ya'll are safe, special the little one!

It's basically equivalent of cookie pop-ups on websites or ToS.

They’re loading ad after every choice which seems to take a long time for me (iOS + Safari)

Looks like service has gotten the HN kiss of death!

I dont have answers to your questions but you might want to prefix the post with "Ask HN: ". It will drive better reach.

IIRC, In Sundarban Delta (India/Bangladesh) people put on masks on the back of the head for similar reasons.

EDIT: Yeap, here's NYT article from 1989 https://www.nytimes.com/1989/09/05/science/face-masks-fool-t...

This reminds me of a Calvin and Hobbes comic where Calvin, having read about this practice, makes his own mask to protect himself from Hobbes' pouncing.

The outcome of Calvin's "experiment"

That's cool. The comic was about one year after the newspaper, so perhaps it got into the public consciousness during that period!

Apparently putting on a mask at the back of the head stopped working after a while https://books.google.com/books?id=zU7PmIjthpoC&pg=PA38#v=one...

IMO, adding 2018 in the title would be better.

I am _guessing_ they wanted to mean pollar opposite of A-Team.

(As non-native speaker) I always interpret A-Team as your most competent team for a given task.

Ah makes sense... thanks for the clarification!
