DUDE I was daydreaming about this the other day, but with postgres. Can I ask why you chose clickhouse? My idea was that every op could be an insert, and then the resulting state would be a transaction and logged? So you'd get basically logged cpu state? Idk cool stuff I'm pumped to dive in tonight.

based on this line from the readme, the answer to your question is likely "because":

> This emulator makes ClickHouse truly Turing complete. We are one step closer to running ClickHouse in ClickHouse.

lol for sure, I'm genuinely curious though, like maybe op is a clickhouse dev? Or maybe they had the cursed idea and decided clickhouse was the best fit for various reasons?

"Because" is always the most fun reason.

Spencer is an engineer at ClickHouse, so it makes sense.
