Yes, I’d love to be able to do this kind of y-axis scaling in Grafana. I was just messing with a network I/O bandwidth graph in Grafana this morning and thinking about log scales. It hadn’t occurred to me to band it by binary/1024

I use Wizard all the time. I'm not a data scientist, but I often need to make engineering decisions based on trends hidden in large datasets. Wizard makes it easy to find what I'm looking for. I'm generally using it for a

I use Wizard all the time at work for analyzing manufacturing data to quickly check for trends and correlations. I find it better, easier, and faster than the internal tools purpose-built for the same task. I also prefer Wizard over JMP, Ta

This is incredible, and it appeals to me on so many levels. The snippets that are smooth time-lapse clips are like a brief view of a lonely journey far out in space. But on top of that it is a work of art. One of the best combinations of a

I've always loved this absurd document. I think it must have been made after the new logo was designed, as a way to back-annotate a fake history of how it was developed. Looking at the new Pepsi logo, this is all I can see: http:/
