@hamel.bsky.social my guess is you have a POV here...

I was a huge fan and early adopter of Snapchat Spectacles (RIP). So I like this directionally but am unimpressed so far. Also, the glasses feel very cheap. I'd pay more to not feel like I'm wearing glasses that feel like they came out of a 5 year old's birthday piñata.

- I have a purebred Aussie, Meta AI suggests she is a Border Collie. For anyone that knows my dog, this is hilarious.

- I connected the Meta View app to my Spotify account but I keep being told "I can't do that on your glasses" when I ask it to do anything Spotify related.
- "Spotify Tap", when mapped to Spotify, plays a random recommended song from Spotify. That's pretty useless imo.

I want to hear more about the desire for an alternative to SQL!

now we need to hear for which tool-- or in which cases it is value add!

I think this is a fair take. When I ran the data team at Replit we actually replaced a number of Airflow pipelines w Hex. I always felt like it wasn't the proper way to do things but Hex made it really easy.

why dismay? i am intrigued to hear more!

great take!
