My partner was fed up with our sewing machine. We got it maybe 15 years ago, but never really used it much. Neither of us had the patience to get it threaded properly.
I mostly hand-sew things (repairs) and my partner does have their mom's old machine (which still works!)
So we've gave the machine to my daughter and she could not be happier! She just sewed up parts for an art installation and is working on making her own pants now.

Oracle is like a smart phone. It can do everything. No need for separate devices for music and notes and whatnot. It can even do json now. And vectors.
Data privacy is often done at the app layer, which means a rogue ai could generate SQL to bypas that. So do access control in the db direftly. Which is probably better even without ai honestly. This 'deep security' might work well.
Ai is happier , according to the man from Oracle, if it just has one Oracle db without competitors software at all.
Fancy that.
