> The data infrastructure underneath it took two years. yep, that's what Definite is for: https://www.definite.app/ All the data infra (datalake + ELT/ETL + dashboards) you need in 5 minutes.

I think this is a move to get business users paying consumption (per token) pricing for codex instead of a flat rate.

what's the use case for cortex? is anyone here using it? We run a lakehouse product ( https://www.definite.app/ ) and I still don't get who the user is for cortex. Our users are either: non-technical: wants to use t

We've ( https://www.definite.app/ ) replaced quite a few metabase accounts now and we have a built-in lakehouse using duckdb + ducklake, so I feel comfortable calling us a "duckdb-based metabase alternative". W

also, who pays for "a data visualization" SaaS? I guess they mean BI, but for a company of any scale, they aren't paying for a chart, they're paying for a permissions system, query caching, a modeling layer, scheduling,

yeah, I wanted a better terminal for operating many TUI agent's at once and none of these worked because they all want to own the agent. I ended up building a terminal[0] with Tauri and xterm that works exactly how I want. 0 - screensh
