Thank you for letting me know. I did not know about the Delve MS product. I just recently renamed from Flashlight to Delve. I like the name and MS retired it, so I'm going to try to stick with it.

That's a good portion of what we are going for. I want it to be as simple as possible for users to make use of their data. Whether the data is coming from logs, APIs, files or any other source, it should be simple and straightforward

I would like to piggyback on this sentiment to call out a common feeling in the US (and probably elsewhere). When people are facing jail time, they are usually told to expect to be brutalized in prison by the other prisoners and guards. Put

If the current cost of things is based on exploiting workers, then costs should rise. However, I don't think that's currently the case. The current cost of things is now predominantly driven by how much could be charged. I see it

I'm skeptical of the impact this will have on homeowners, if you define homeowners as someone who owns the house in which they live. This comes at a time when residential property is increasingly being bought up by commercial interests
