Ben, you probably don't remember me but you hired me ages ago to help out with the Python client for Timber. Just want to say thanks for that opportunity — it's been amazing to watch you guys succeed.

Also, I've ended up being responsible for infra and observability at a few startups now, and you are completely correct about the amount of waste and unnecessary cost. Looking forward to trying out Tero.

Hey Peter, I absolutely remember you! Thanks for the nice comment.

And yes, data waste in this space is absurdly bad. I don't think people realize how bad it actually is. I estimate ~40% of the data (being conservative) is waste. But now we know - and knowing is half the battle :)
