We ran a benchmark comparing a typical Python microservice with PostgresML and got some exciting results:

Machine learning isn't a single task so a 40x speed boost isn't meaningful without context.

A title like "serving ML models from the db is 40x faster than in Python" Would be more appropriate imo.

When you submit a link like this the link is not clickable.

Please delete this submission and resubmit it as an ordinary link. If you really feel like you have to say something that isn't the article (why?) you can make a comment.

Why is this the expected norm, though? It's much nicer to have a short summary next to the URL. So many of the links we get have poor original titles and a lot of SEO blogspam. Having a concise summary actually really helps to provide context.
