Didn't take it that way at all. All good. :)

For anyone who is confused due to the infodump on the GH page, here is a video where I step by step go through some of the SQL and Viz generation features - it's a bit long and doe…

This "problem" had been bugging me for a decade. The schism between "Proprietary BI Tools" (quick and inflexible) and just writing things from scratch (slow and wide open). You cus…

Heya. Very cool to see this here. Still in alpha and a lot to work on, but I think it's truly a unique offering in this (mostly crowded and nondescript) space. Not to shill too har…

Thanks! Pretty much. The idea is to kind of make easy things easy - but allow a very high ceiling for hacking and modifying them for your use case. Besides, if we generate code for…

Thanks. It's funny about the chosen aesthetic - I had early builds and demos that were very "corpo sterile" and eventually I started going crazy with dynamic themes and openai gene…

Project guy here - yes, succinct messaging is an issue I'm working on - there is literally so much there. I've been trying to frame it like an Iceberg - on the above the water leve…

ORMs all the way down? Please no.

Same. Had a Commodore 64 hooked up to a CRT in the living room. Thinking back - "a programming language as an 'operating system'" is actually still very cool idea for those reasons…

From what I recall, he didn't like the aesthetics of the license plate (to which I can't really blame him). It's also because CA DMV is a bit of a shit show - buy a car and you won…

Beautiful and clean. I love how straight-forward your pitch is as well. Nice work, guys!

At the risk of sounding petty and nit-picky... I hate it when companies start their marketing about how shitty their main competitor is. Really? You couldn't muster an elegant elev…

People want viable services not "tech". Red flag: both their concept as well as name have YT's brand name in it. The equivalent of calling your company "Uber for X". I'm all for de…

This x10. Being aware of "who" / "what" is in the room - and then (the tricky part) self-aware of how they may see you. Use this ance-data to shape your tone and phrasing.

> web services do crappy things with that data. (Hey Zuck, how was Congress?) Is this kind of snark really necessary in top marketing copy? I get what you are saying in terms of fr…

OR allow student loans to be discharged in bankruptcy - that would give the schools a hell of an incentive to not ship overtly-debt-addled peeps into the workforce.

Sadly - this is virtually ALL companies over size X, age Y. The dirty "silos" outnumber the clean by far.

Hah, that is a great story. Reminds me of ancedotes of devs intentionally wasting ram in old school console game development; locking it up in some obscure way; just so that at the…

I recall seeing a tweet this morning stating the same for ethics committees in academic research papers. Students are being taught to put questionable things in - that are easy to …

Not adding anything productive to the convo - but love the design here. Very nice. Big fan of dark interfaces and visual (relationship) flow-graphs like this.

>> have these irrational moral qualms, I would have ended the marriage by now A twisted version of Stockholm Syndrome, trust me. That nagging feeling that says, "I don't want to ro…

This. The only decision you have to make now is how much more suffering you would like to endure. A lifetime more - or a chance to have your own life back into your own hands somed…

Hmm, looks like you are correct. Thanks, I never noticed that actually. Going to fix the offending "encoder" scripts (or whatever you want to call them) and re-index everything ove…

OP: Thanks everyone for the feedback! Just a short explanation of the (still very rudimentary) query "system" (using the term loosely here)... Tab file gets scraped, broken down in…
