Making a PDF that's larger than Germany
Slightly tangential: if you are hacking on PDFs, manually or otherwise, this is an incredibly useful tool: https://pdfcpu.io/ (not the author, just a user)

Marker: Convert PDF to Markdown quickly with high accuracy
I can report that the closest I've came before is with PDFMiner (https://pypi.org/project/pdfminer/) for Python. The benefit of this one is that it retains styling information, so that italics and the like can be retained, at least with some post-processing (I think one might need to convert certain CSS-classes to actual or tags).
The other option I have started looking into is the PDFCPU library for Go. It is a bit more low-level than PDFMiner, but one gets out very well structured info, that seem it might be possible to post-process quite well, for one's particular use case and PDF layouts: https://github.com/pdfcpu/pdfcpu
I also now tried the Marker tool in the OT, and it seems to do a reasonable job. It did intermingle some columns though, at least in some tricky cases such as when there were a round shaped image in between the two columns. One note is that Marker doesn't seem to retain styling like italics though.

PDFcpu snippet for read text of PDF file?
Can anyone help me with PDFcpu? How do I get the text of a PDF via the API? https://github.com/pdfcpu/pdfcpu
Of course, the best way would be to solve it via the API without CLI. But this doesn't seem to work. https://github.com/pdfcpu/pdfcpu/issues/122

no-/low-code ETL recommendations
You might want to have a look at https://benthos.dev. It’s open source (MIT license). While it doesn’t have support for reading data from PDFs (yet), it can be quite useful if you’re happy to write some Go if you need to extend it. It allows users to inject any custom input/output/processor/etc and create their own binary. There’s also https://studio.benthos.dev if you need a visual tool for your pipelines. Regarding PDFs, there’s https://github.com/pdfcpu/pdfcpu which might expose the required APIs to build a Benthos input for streaming text data from PDF files, but I’d have to study it in detail.

Sequential and parallel execution of long-running shell commands
Pueue dumps the state of the queue to the disk as JSON every time the state changes, so when you have a lot of queued jobs this results in considerable disk io. I actually changed it to compress the state file via zstd which helped quite a bit but then eventually just moved on to running NATS [1] locally.

Revolutionizing Real-Time Alerts with AI, NATs and Streamlit
Imagine you have an AI-powered personal alerting chat assistant that interacts using up-to-date data. Whether it's a big move in the stock market that affects your investments, any significant change on your shared SharePoint documents, or discounts on Amazon you were waiting for, the application is designed to keep you informed and alert you about any significant changes based on the criteria you set in advance using your natural language. In this post, we will learn how to build a full-stack event-driven weather alert chat application in Python using pretty cool tools: Streamlit, NATS, and OpenAI. The app can collect real-time weather information, understand your criteria for alerts using AI, and deliver these alerts to the user interface.

Introducing “Database Performance at Scale”: A Free, Open Source Book
About cost, see [1]. Also, S3 prices have been increasing and there's been a bunch of alternative offers for object store from other companies. I think people in here (HN) comment often about increasing costs of AWS offerings.
Distributed systems and consensus are inherently hard problem, but there are a lot of implementations that you can study (like Etcd that you mention, or NATS [2], which I've been playing with and looks super cool so far :-p) if you want to understand the internals, on top of many books and papers released.
Again, I never said it was "easy" to build distributed systems, I just don't think there's any esoteric knowledge to what S3 provides.

High-Performance server for NATS.io, the cloud and edge native messaging system
Ahh, they may work on QUIC this year: https://github.com/nats-io/nats-server/issues/457
TIBCO Rednezvous, https://www.tibco.com/products/tibco-rendezvous, is the first thing that came to my mind from previous experience in the financial industry working with real-time market data. Although I'm not sure if it has built-in KV support for dealing with large payloads like NATS does, TIBCO RV and their related software packages are worth checking out to see what an long time established commercial product offers. Which leads me to...
... the protocol is text-based like HTTP with CR LF for field both for the client, https://docs.nats.io/reference/reference-protocols/nats-prot..., and cluster protocols, https://docs.nats.io/reference/reference-protocols/nats-serv... -- which means encoding overhead if your payloads are binary. So depending on your definition of performance, ymmv.
I really do not see how implementing an API across multiple languages is easier by making a new linefeed-based protocol, https://github.com/nats-io/nats-server/blob/0421c65c888bf381..., than just using code-generated JSON or gRPC (Protobuf or Flatbuffers). One could then write subscriptions/clustering algorithms in a protocol-neutral library.
