I didn't check in last night due to some a evening mess that needed cleaning.

What progress did you make yesterday?

Not a lot of progress yesterday. Did some reading of Architecture of a Database System. There's a lot more going on under the hood of a DBMS than I realized.

You mentioning that so often makes me want to take a look... if/when I get some free time to do so.

If you do, I'll have a copy that includes bookmarks to each section when I'm finished reading it because I'm bookmarking them as I go.

I'll take it if you're offering; what about your bookmarks, though? Won't you miss them?

[–] ericjmorey 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's a pdf. I'll send you a copy soon.

2 days in a row with very little progress. (Tuesday and Wednesday)

More productive on Thursday.

Completed 3 of 6 Grouping and Sorting exercises in the Pandas course.

Read more of Architecture of a Database System, but I didn't comprehend it all (not sure if the authors are assuming some prior knowledge or their promised further explanation about the details of Disk I/0 buffers [Database I/O, Log I/O Requests] in later chapters will clear things up.
