[8:01 AM]&_____: I am so glad I banned that asshole from here .. dirk the ever toxic doucheweasel
[8:02 AM]TheSemicolons: lmao, the rest of the issues are pretty funny
[8:03 AM]TheSemicolons:
Sometimes, it displays an unknown pop artist (a dude in white pants and guitar) instead of an airplane.
It displays a burned battery instead of some model of Boeing 787.
It does not distinguish between different models, e.g., Boeing 737-700, 737-800, 737-900, or Airbus A319, A320, A321,
which is unforgivable, but we use a primitive request to find a picture from Wikipedia.

[8:33 AM]&_____: yeah it is created by ClickHouse employees to promote thier database product
[8:33 AM]&_____: https://clickhouse.com/pricing
[8:35 AM]&_____: We could offer them data, but guessing they won't return the favor, as is pretty typical when they are out simply grinding for sales.

[8:37 AM]&_____: check that out
[8:37 AM]&_____: so he's insulting sites on his github for not being "all free for him"
[8:37 AM]&_____: but in bed with millions of $ in funding
[8:37 AM]&_____: fucking trash
[8:38 AM]&_____: of course everyone else time and money is worthless, except for his

[10:16 AM]~sakura~: imagine if mh370 went to space just for fun
[12:50 PM]biscuitdigits: I actually get the impression that he’s a decent dude motivated primarily by doing interesting technical stuff - AFAIK the demo was created by Alexey alone, not by hoardes of CH employees. The history of ClickHouse is somewhat interesting (started out and Yandex, then split out and very much distanced), but I don’t think it’s your typical set-up and certainly not fair to compare CH to a “AI image people”. Not cool to shit on other sites for not giving free data if that has been happening, but equally I don’t see how such a harsh reaction to the demo, simply because it was made by a company, is all that much better than Dirk’s reaction
[1:07 PM]biscuitdigits: In fact, where has he been insulting other sites for not being free for him? Or is that hyperbole?
[5:32 PM]&_____: Dirk is just an asshole that is also a troll. A self proclaimed opensource and privacy policy expert that takes others people's work and pretends it is his own. Him and his troll crowd showed up after the ADSBx sale and have caused constant drama and chaos. His posts on github and Hacker News are typical Dirk shit.
[5:38 PM]&_____: imagine if the earth is hollow ..
[5:39 PM]&_____: Just the github is enough. Seems like all he's doing is using other people's work to drum up sales PR for his time series database company, that's what happens when you have investors that demand a return on thier investment.
[5:41 PM]&_____: It's not the first time this has happened, there was another guy that did that same thing. That guy took all the data, ran up a decent AWS bill exporting it at the time, and put up a "demo". Then ghosted. https://www.warp10.io/
[6:36 PM]&_____: This is always the problem, had he/ClickHouse simply said "this is a sponsored ClickHouse project, I am the co-founder and CTO of ClickHouse, the project is using our database to demonstrate querying capability of aggregated of aircraft data" - that would be fine. But making a list of sources, then insulting those he deems "unworthy". The Dirk license drama is just typical asshole Dirk drama. That crowd believes everything should be free as long as they aren't the one's paying for it.

[6:38 PM]&_____: Just the arrogance in his "evaluations" of other people's work. "well you didn't use ClickHouse, so what was done is obviously inferior, had the author known about ClickHouse, he surely would have used it if he had a brain cell."
[6:41 PM]BenCos18: yep
that is just terrible for sure
[6:46 PM]&_____: the subtle jab on the last one
[6:46 PM]&_____: "smaller dataset but the demo is slow"
[6:46 PM]&_____: crafty
[6:48 PM]&_____: https://github.com/ClickHouse/adsb.exposed/issues/12From their discord. Totally seems like a good faith issue. Apparently &_____ is also @adsb-related-code, making the use of "they" rather disingenuous
