DuckDB has become my preferred tool for hardcore data wrangling. Excel is fine for like 80% of data processing tasks, but the remaining twenty percent are a pain, especially when you're CPU bound on a remote desktop. Smuggling the DuckDB JDBC driver onto said remote machine was the most productive infosec violation I've ever committed.
I've been beating my head trying to get duckdb to statically link into a Go program (I'm neither an expert with cgo nor ld). If anyone else has been able to do this I'd love to see your build steps.<p><a href="https://github.com/marcboeker/go-duckdb" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/marcboeker/go-duckdb</a> produces a non-static binary by default.
Great to see new features being implemented. I'm using DuckDB for a thesis project and integrating it into my own Python CLI/web tool has been super easy -- I especially love the direct integration with DataFrames, it makes things really seamless.
I've been using DuckDb a fair bit recently and really enjoy it... When it has slightly better ide support (eg, I can use it in pycharm) and can take in geospatial data, I'll be ecstatic.
