• Is Tableau Dead?

  I try to avoid these tools wherever possible, given the choice I'd always go for tools like Blazer. https://github.com/ankane/blazer No such luck in my current role, Looker and PowerBI are both in use by different bits of the org and nobody has the ability to delve into the underlying figures. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• BI vs custom queries in app

  As u/jaxn said you could use Blazer for this kind of thing. I would also look into materialized views or custom tables and a scheduled job that calculates the metrics they care about. That will take you a long way. Eventually you can use something like Metabase but I would put that off for as long as possible as it's really expensive and pretty involved. Source: 12 months ago

• Evidence – Business Intelligence as Code

  And it's Open Source: https://github.com/evidence-dev/evidence if you are into the Ruby on Rails world. It's super solid, and it's been an indispensable tool integrated to all my projects. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Italian watchdog bans use of Google Analytics

  I use Ahoy too, but I don't have very good visibility into the data. I should spend more time building queries and creating charts. I should probably set up blazer as well: https://github.com/ankane/blazer. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Using Scientist to Refactor Critical Ruby on Rails Code

  The Blazer gem provides a nice way to analyze the results easily. It is simple to install and allows SQL queries to run against tables. The query here shows that the candidate implementation is significantly faster than the original. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago

• A refresher on GitHub Pages

  I moved my blog from WordPress to GitLab Pages in... 2016. I'm happy with the solution. However, I used GitHub Pages when I was teaching for both the courses and the exercises, e.g., Java EE. At the time, there was no GitHub Actions: I used Travis CI to build and deploy. - Source: dev.to / 7 days ago

• Yet Another Tour of an Open-Source Elm SPA

  For this application, Elm controlled the routing. So, I had to adapt the scripts to deploy to Netlify instead of GitHub Pages. Why? Because you need to be able to tell the web server to redirect all relevant requests to the application. GitHub Pages doesn't have support for it. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago
