compacted

It's not completely wrong, the article is not talking about a compacted spacial dimension, it's talking about a large, unfolded fourth spacial dimension.

So these are produced in large panels, which are laid on a compacted roadbed, or perhaps on concrete supports.

The more science is discovered, the more it gets compacted into the essentials of this knowledge.

That would create frequent holes of already persisted data in the WAL, and it would have to be regularly compacted/rewritten.

A fully compacted LSM tree arises only when writes stop happening for a sufficiently long time.

Most likely that the 300PB are distilled/normalized/compacted data whereas the 4PB per day are raw logs.

A fully compacted LSM-tree should be equivalent to a b-tree in terms of read performance.

In central London you would hope for highly compacted sand at about 50m (150') deep.

During the compaction phase, when a new temp db is installed while the old is being compacted, isn't there a window where messages in the old temp db are not searchable?

Huge piles of rock and dirt, miles long and scores of yards wide, stacked and compacted by hordes of zero-skill labor.

I like that they didn't include a parser in compacted code, such a parser wouldn't be very interesting.

Certainly science is compacted and that's how it gets transmitted to younger generations.

The quality of teaching in my uni is really quite shit and they've seriously "compacted" important courses (e.g.

However that thought experiment is newtonian thinking, not GR, so perhaps flawed) Update: It turns out I was describing something like the "Schwarzschild radius", confirming that in GR you don't need a singularity for a black hole - the mass just needs to be compacted into a volume smaller than a sphere of the Schwarzschild radius.

The subheading of the question was never addressed—"how do we get all of that information compacted onto that ever shrinking chip?" That's always been the biggest mystery to me: what are chip manufacturers doing differently with each of these "process nodes" that makes them able to do photolithography at slightly smaller scales, but with the scale only shrinking a little bit per five-year-interval?
