Interesting. So they're taking the "app engine" concept that Kdb provides and promoting that bit. Anyone have experience using Hobbes in the wild?

Scrolling through the thing: I'm pretty sure not many (possibly not any) people are going to have experience using this thing in the wild.

Except at Morgan Stanley (where the same could be said for kdb 20 years ago).

Well, do you know anyone at Morgan who is using it? I must say that I do not.

Five of his last eight posts contain links to it. So I surmise he is the primary author of it.

Great! Glancing at it, I suspected it wasn't actually used; looked too "Buck Rogers," but maybe I am old and set in my ways.

Do you have a pointer to setting something like a ticker plant up like in the old K3 manuals? Maybe over here? https://hobbes.readthedocs.io/en/latest/logging/hog.html#on-...

Something about the language itself, the presentation and documentation, or the dependency environment?

BTW, it would be a treat to see an open sourcing of kerf at some point! I am an admirer.
