It sounds like they found a way to bypass MFA on snowflake (because snowflake didn’t expire session cookies), and stole an employees credential, obtained via a “Lumma-type Infostealer” which I guess is just a key logger in browser extension

I think we are conflating Loki/VictoriaLogs (the UI, API, and log databases) and LogsQL vs LogQL (the syntax). > Loki doesn't allow calculating multiple stats in a single query Victoria's support for projecting multiple st

As an addendum, I think the main flaws with Loki is log presentation in the Grafana UI, rather than necessarily querying syntax (extracting data from log lines with regex etc/pattern matching is gross, and if you're doing that you

Interesting to see a new approach! You wrote that you don't like Loki's LogQL, but it looks quite similar (Victoria's LogQL first): log.level:error _stream:{app!~"buggy_app|foobar"} {app!~"buggy_app|fooba

Generally I view things like this as under-investment in energy provision, rather than 'overusage' by businesses. There was story last year in the UK, where the power usage of data centres in west London were blamed for a lack of

Slack has been using customer data for ML for years. Look at their search feature - it uses learning to rank, a machine learning approach that tracks content, clicks etc. It sounds like the worry is this overfit generative AI will spew out

Good luck folks! I'm glad there are projects trying to solve enterprise search. I guess the main problem is the "private" aspect, if I've understood your goals correctly. Since most SaaS products lock down the private da
