Datadog figured it out. It's pretty great. Obviously it doesn't see everything, but it's a very useful signal. Their anomaly correlation is even cooler.

It would be good to add information explaining why. Empty dismissals don't contribute much, whereas if you make a substantive case, readers can learn.
