A full orchestra on stage playing with no music stands sure would be make for a nice sight (assuming the glasses looked like regular old glasses -- (or maybe blues brothers shades)).

Using dolthub's go-mysql-server for Grafana's upcoming SQL expressions feature (private preview in Grafana 12, but in the OSS version with a feature toggle).

GMS lets you provide your own table and database implementations, so we use GMS to perform SQL queries against Grafana's dataframes - so users can join or manipulate different data source queires, but we don't have to insert the data into SQL to do this thanks to GMS.

It might be interesting if there is more fine tuning towards the lower end of the volume. So the higher harmonics can be present but much softer.

If reading, I would recommend a companion book, makes it easy to check references if you feel like you are missing too many things while reading. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0820328073/ref=tmm_pap_swatch...

Are there title rules for HN that would apply here? "Something is happening to [Someplace]" is pretty much meaningless since it is always true.

"Amazon has turned shill results into its next big thing. After selling $31 billion in ads last year, Amazon became the third-largest online ad company in the United States, trailing only Google and Facebook".

Got my attention more than than anything else. Seems to really be pushing antitrust to new heights?

Hoping to see cleaner ways to integrate across data sources, but developing that contract is going to take some time I think. In the meantime, should be able to get this supported with prometheus data source in a Grafana managed alert: https://github.com/grafana/grafana/pull/44865
