I tried to setup Looker as an integration point to all Google Analytics but wanted something much simpler with 1-2 clicks.

Hacker News • HackerNews • Use case: Setting it up as an integration point to all Google Analytics data

MIXED

I’d love to see deeper integration with BI tools like Looker.

Hacker News • HackerNews • Use case: Mentioned as a BI tool they wish Barawave had deeper integration with, indicating prior or desired use for business intelligence.

I have this sinking feeling that a lot of what is happening with Docker as a specific tool is going to be replaced in 4 or 5 years with unikernels.

Hacker News • Hacker News • Use case: containerization (implied, as the subject of the post)

MIXED

Some of the developers hated Docker because of the quality of documentation and a lots of counter intuitive workflows, so I had to go an extra mile for those and massage them to accept it.

Emphasizes data modeling and governed metrics - valuable at scale with strong backend BI capabilities

FAILED

Slows down self-service adoption - more a backend BI tool than frontline analytics experience
