Ted Chiang wrote a short story inspired by Flowers for Algernon ("Understand") that explores what might happen if a guy just never stopped getting smarter: https://web.archive.org/web/20140527121332/http://www.infini...
I love Flowers for Algernon, but Understand is my favorite short story of all time.

Runway | Remote in USA and Canada | https://www.runway.com Runway replaces the operating model that almost every growing business has in spreadsheet form and transforms it into a visual model of how every part of your business is connected. This gives everyone from the CEO to the individual contributor a shared understanding of how the business works, where you’re going, and why. With this new context, your team can engage in higher-level conversations about what’s right for the company. Together, you can easily explore which levers to pull and find out, in real-time, if doing so will help you meet your goals.
Runway does all of this in a way that makes you want to dig into the data — not run away from it — through a fundamental rethinking of the core primitives of the spreadsheet. Because when you have the information you need, your team can ask better questions and make the best decisions possible.
We’ve put together an exceptional team of ex-Striåpe, Coinbase, Facebook, and Twitter engineers, many of whom are experienced founders. We are backed by folks like a16z and Garry Tan from Initialized, Dylan Field from Figma, Akshay Kothari from Notion, Naval Ravikant and Elad Gil. If you’d like to learn more about our team, our culture, and what’s it like to work at Runway, please check out our Working at Runway profile along with our Values here: https://runwayhq.notion.site/Working-at-Runway-c7a9a7c8ef914... Our open roles in Engineering, Product, and Design as well as Go-To-Market are listed on the bottom of the page: https://runwayhq.notion.site/Working-at-Runway-c7a9a7c8ef914... Stack: Typescript, React, Go, GraphQL, Postgres, GCP/Kube, Figma.

It’s so crazy to see this. I still remember meeting Spenser and Curtis for the first time when they were just like half a dozen people. Even then it was clear this solved a huge pain. Surreal to see. Congratulations Spenser, Curtis, and Jeff!

Hi! I'm a cofounder at Runway.
I've been poking around with Pry for Runway, and I think their approach is super compelling. There's a lot of overlap between our approaches, and some meaningful philosophical differences in product strategy.
Overall, the problem space is enormous and I'm super impressed by how much Andy has built with a small team.
Out of all of other products in the space that are publicly available, I consider Pry to be the most impressive one I've seen. And I strongly agree that we need more people in this space innovating on finance, so more options is a good thing.

Have you looked at Amplitude? Because those reasons are exactly why I became a customer (and later an investor)
If you ever get to that point, you can use raw Redshift access to do whatever queries you want. I used to use Zynga's pretty state of the art analytics infrastructure, and Amplitude dashboard was the only thing that covered most of my edge cases. For the rest you can always go raw SQL.

Right, that's the point of the article the OP posted that I'm responding to.
