But most of it does biodegrade so it is short time problem vs very long time problem.

And that still solves not all that much because you still have to feed the city by fleet of trucks, and still need to have a fleet of vans to deliver all of that to the stores you now walk or cycle to.

You can just tell them that. "That is not the type of jobs we usually do, and if we did we'd have to use a lot of time to build competency in the problem and that would've costed you a lot. You'd be better off trying X o

I tried it and it was more complex to do anything compared to PromQL. Like, it looks super powerful for complex queries I will never need to make...
191.
by ilyt 3y ago
And it *has* to be feature, not just "it's faster", because they are (much) faster time-series databases that support PromQL and are near-drop-in to your infrastructure.

I think they missed one thing: Nobody wants to get locked in with the runner-up. If they on top of that provided some compatibility layer for Prometheus/PromQL, like few other competitors did, then the prospective enterprise client hav

AFAIK only difference is that in Influx a given row can have more than one value so say "interface traffic" would be interface_if_octets host=router,instance=eth0,rx=123584,tx=213956 while in prometheus it would be

VictoriaMetrics all-in-one binary is honestly everything that I need in my home IoT things. Prometheus-compatible interface for query, a bunch of ingest protocols, smaller memory usage than InfluxDB (v1, haven't tested v2 coz new langu

Was very similar for me. No good reason to go V2, the new query language, on top of sucking for anyone that only uses it once every few weeks, also wasn't really supported well in Grafana. I ended up trying VictoriaMetrics by near acci

by ilyt 3y ago
We just left it. Too many changes, new query language is incomprehensible to drive-by-graphing, and rest of the industry seems to be building around PromQL/Prometheus. Victoriametrics so far works very well.

But it also verifies nobody tampered with e-mail after it left the server and that is still valuable. As in the DKIM signature doesn't mean it was really the sender that sent it, but it does say that it wasn't changed after that.

The problem is that it takes time. Learning how to go on 2 wheels isn't that hard Learning how to go on one is noticeably harder as in need 2 axis of balancing, not (essentially) one Meanwhile they want to sell product that's smal

Yeah I don't get how they looked at SecondLife and VRChat and went "no, people don't want that, people want to be entirely themselves in virtual world".

Good luck trying to get any actual liability out of them... Like, go try to make Oracle write you a contract where their base going down compensates your lost profits. You just won't get it, unless you throw some hideous amount of mone
