The tin foil hatters get the last laugh

Aren’t they going to lose about half their population in the next 75 years?

That’s… problematic

In American cities, as long as you don’t look like a bum, hotel lobbies are usually accessible.

I think nurses in the Bay Area make like 200k a year

this sounds like an absolutely wholesome story where multiple strangers donate their attention and time to help somebody who was not a victim in any way but just merely lost.

I wouldn't want my wife lost in Compton either but if the good guys outnumbered the bad guys by Inf% then it must not really be that bad. What would happen if it were Kinshasa instead of Compton.

This looks solid! We are also going for a single-executable (typescript/bun in our case), but we are specifically going after agent monitoring in the first version. We think people shouldn't have to send all of their agent conversations to a vendor like DataDog or Sentry.

It doesn't take very long (because compute and storage are separate in most of them) but good lord does it get expensive. Every time you click that upgrade button you are doubling your cost. It's really painful when you have a spiky workload that is performing fine like 95% of the time but you are watching the p99 and need to double the cost of a very expensive infra component, only to improve the experience of the heaviest 4% of your workload. This is to say nothing of the gambit you then have to play with reservations/prepays.

Definitely encroaching.

Our last product (SaaS observability) uses Clickhouse.

Our next product (self-hosted observability) uses DuckDB.

my kids are not teenagers yet, what am I missing? the iPad I let them use has child safety enabled and it seems to do exactly what the comment above you is suggesting.

No it doesn’t track. In his example, observing license plates is perfectly legal without a warrant. Looking in your phone is not. These are not at all alike.

The most likely conclusion is that she was fired. To quit before your equity cliff things would have to be so terribly bad that you fear you are committing a crime to stay. After 11 months you feel like you’ve already earned that money.

All you had to do was put in an order with your broker (robinhood, E*Trade, etc). Some brokers did not get much allocation (Schwab) but this was not a hard stock to get at $135.

Putting 2 servings of ice cream in a thick plastic jar was always a dumb gimmick.

Borrows from Business Operating System (BOS) - in use for decades.

Yes, you nailed it. Old data is important sometimes, like when a problem has been identified and investigated, but most workloads are looking at the current state of the system. So we keep the hot data cached locally (not nas/ebs) and s3 is always the source of truth. DuckDB over parquet files on a local ssd is fast enough you don’t need a traditional database.

We are using DuckLake with a “lakehouse” architecture for the observability agent.
