~Construction and agriculture also run on diesel~
(edit..OPs comment was germane to the thread, and correct, logistics by large the majority of diesel usage on this report).
We migrated from newrelic to datadog (for cost reasons LMAO) a while back and I miss NRQL every single day I'm building a dashboard.
I enjoy having everything instrumented and in one spot, it's super powerful, but I am currently advocating for self hosting loki so that we can have debug+ level logs across all environments for a much much lower cost. Datadog is really good at identifying anomalies, but the cost for logs is so high there's a non-trivial amount of savings in sampling and minimizing logging. I HATE that we have told devs "don't log so much" -- that misses the entire point of building out a haystack. And sampling logs at 1%, and only logging warnings+ in prod makes it even harder to identify anomalies in lower environments before a prod release.
last hot take: The UX in kibana in 2016 was better than anything else we have now for rapidly searching through a big haystack, and identifying and correlating issues in logs.

lol for sure, I'm genuinely curious though, like maybe op is a clickhouse dev? Or maybe they had the cursed idea and decided clickhouse was the best fit for various reasons?
DUDE I was daydreaming about this the other day, but with postgres. Can I ask why you chose clickhouse? My idea was that every op could be an insert, and then the resulting state would be a transaction and logged? So you'd get basically logged cpu state? Idk cool stuff I'm pumped to dive in tonight.
Yeah dude! Did you see linqpad is supported on osx now? I used a Mac for a couple years, last gen Intel, when I was doing mostly node work, but I never really got used to it. One of my coworkers though has been doing full-time .net on a Mac with jetbrains for probably about 2 years now and he said he's just as productive as before at this point.
Plasma on Ubuntu is the what windows 7 could've been. It's been my daily for a couple years now, with jetbrains tooling and vscode. The only reason I boot back into windows is if I have to work on a .net framework app with visual studio. And Ubuntu is even explicitly supported by dell and Lenovo? It's a no brainer tbh. I'm lucky that my corporate IT is cool with it: I showed them how it supports drive encryption, can join our domain and run our patching software to meet all their 'policy'
Dude I've been running Ubuntu with Plasma for almost 3 years now as a daily, and it's perfect. It's what windows 7 could've been. Maybe I'm stuck in my ways, but as a dotnet and devops guy, 2020s was the perfect confluence of open source, works on Linux tooling to fully switch over. Rider, datagrip and vscode, and I don't have to deal with docker or wsl anymore. It's beautiful. I only boot into windows now when I have to deal with .net framework OG stuff, and I'm pretty sure I could kill a weekend and get a VM to boot from my windows nvme so I never have to leave.
I think that's how most people work. I watched a colleague use his MacBook for react dev and all of his windows were just...like whatever size and position they opened at, but never full screen? My 3 monitor brain couldn't compute lol.
I have a laptop, 24" centered horizontal centered and a 24" vertical monitor and do a vertical half split for Spotify/teams/shell/outlook, with docs on the laptop screen and ide on the main window full screen. And virtual desktops for design/research, dev and personal.
Sticking with the standard monitor sizes instead of 4k or ultrawide makes screen sharing way simpler as well!
Small gripe, Modern UI design with 10px of padding around everything means most apps and pages HAVE to be full screen to get anything done.
