Logging must be cheap, build new generation observability database https://t.co/X5Q2bC26F6



There’s nothing more depressing than building a product with a free tier. Free products attract the worst behaviour: obscure, illegal, and often amoral requests. It makes you lose faith in humanity. I can’t imagine what the safety teams at ChatGPT or any major social network deal with every day.







Go read this post from Mat Duggan right now -- "@ClickhouseDB is Winning the Observability Wars". Go! I'll wait. matduggan.com/clickhouse-is-… "Every other observability backend I've worked with mutates as it grows... ClickHouse at 10 TB a day looks like ClickHouse at 1 TB a day with more shards. That's it. That's the pitch. That's the whole reason I'm writing this." Duggan's piece is a riot from start to finish. He talks you through all the pain of scaling Elastic, LGTM, and Datadog, and shows why a little tiny bit of upfront effort buys you SO MUCH EASE down the road, as you scale indefinitely. Why am I boosting Clickhouse's reputation like this? Because it isn't just fucking Clickhouse, you guys. Duggan just discovered what it's like to use observability backed by a columnar storage engine. We've been writing about this since the Year of Our Lord 2016. We wrote about it in the first edition of "Observability Engineering". We called it "Observability 2.0" a couple years back. We invited Clickhouse to contribute a guest chapter to the second edition of "Observability Engineering." I was on a panel at their conference last month. THIS IS WHY. This is the same way Honeycomb is built. But if you want to run and scale your own, yeah, you should fucking use Clickhouse! I don't mean to be all "I told you so", but look! what a difference! this shit makes! it can even make a grizzled logs warrior like Mat fall in love. YES, IT IS DIFFERENT. YES, IT IS EXCITING. If you're stuck using a product that was designed twenty years ago, maybe you too should give @ClickHouseDB -- or @honeycombio -- a shot.


fuck i just pulled out my calculator to do $0.08 x 100





SpaceX has exercised the option to acquire @cursor_ai in an all-stock transaction with the goal of building the world’s most useful AI models. For the past few months, SpaceXAI has been jointly training a model with Cursor, which will be released in Cursor and Grok Build soon. We look forward to working closely with the Cursor team to advance our frontier AI capabilities
