oh another thing. I was teaching myself Go while trying to build a data warehouse (in Go) for all of our music service data (a lot of our playlists were in Spotify) and this huge, detailed customer spreadsheet

the data quality in the store i built was pretty spotty, but I managed to get our playlist guru into a Heroku SQL shell with some convoluted queries that could pull back every customer we ever sent a kanye song too

chatbots are still around — the Robinhood app has one that messages me the same damn thing every time i make a sale

but you probably couldn’t get $5M for an AI powered chatbot these days
