Interesting idea, thanks. I never, ever use the BQ UI for querying unless I absolutely have to. We use Metabase for BI, which we plug into all of our development datasets and do the exploration and iterating there which still requires net

I'd be curious to know the revenue breakdown of all their various products as a percentage of the total. I wonder if all those products you reference bring in much $$ compared to the bread and butter ones that they started off with - E

Just curious - you ever listen to railroad earth? I used to be in that band and we killed in the Bay Area. It was said by some that we “filled their jerry hole”, which was some of the highest and funniest praise we got.

I just bought a Mitsubishi mini split system to replace our oil furnace and bring A/C to our house here in New Jersey for the first time. Their high end outdoor units heat down to -13 F, which is colder than I've ever seen here. I
