• Veo

  > Google is large enough to not care about small opportunities. It ends up focusing on bigger opportunities that result in shittier products overall. For example, just a few months ago they cut 17 features from Google Assistant because they couldn't monetize them, sorry, because these were "small opportunities": https://techcrunch.com/2024/01/11/google-is-removing-17-underutilized-assistant-features/ > all are... - Source: Hacker News / 14 days ago

• Apple Introduces M4 Chip

• The Data Stack Journey: Lessons from Architecting Stacks at Heroku and Mattermost

  For Growth and larger, I would recommend Looker. The only reason I wouldn't recommend it for the smaller company stages is that the cost is much higher than alternatives such as Metabase. With Looker, you define your data model in LookML, which Looker then uses to provide a drag-and-drop interface for end-users that enables them to build their own visualizations without needing to write SQL.
