Yeah then you have the choice to not buy the locked down hardware, you don't have a right to get open hardware FROM Google. Of course there are no good options for open hardware, b…

I worked in a similar system. The raw data from the field first goes to a cloud hosted event queue of some sort, then a database, then back to whatever app/screen on field. The dat…

I have been using it lightly. But the biggest problem (for me) is that I cannot use custom icons. I have to use Azure specific icons in a lot of diagrams. Mermaid's support for cus…
