It is great that Parquet is so good at a lot of things, but that does not mean just because it came first that it deserves to be the only analytic file format forever. I think you and vouwfietsman (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48649412) are actually saying the same thing in different words—I think their "unfortunately" means "it is unfortunate that, by virtue of coming first, this now has a support lead that will make it difficult for anyone else to catch up." | ||
