A huge problem with spending $400 is the build quality of the bike. I went down this exact same route last December. I bought the same Sunny bike in the link, an Apple Watch, a Wahoo cadence sensor, and an entry-level iPad. The Sunny bike broke after 3.5 months of regular usage, right at the start of Covid quarantine. I ended up replacing it with a high quality ~$2k Keiser M3i. The Keiser has been great the last 7 months.
I've had the slightly nicer model of Sunny (with magnetic resistance) and it's been great. I'm ~200 and do a lot of standing riding and haven't noticed any issues.
I've only had it for ~3 months so maybe a few weeks down the road I'll have issues
I’ve got the belt drive one with the leather pad for resistance (SF-B1002) and haven’t had any issues. I’ve been impressed that it feels like an average spin bike you’d find at a gym (for $400!). Did you have the magnetic version?
This is the same bike I had. The drive belt eventually frayed/snapped. Sunny customer support was terrible and I got way more help trying to fix it on a Sunny owners Facebook group.
So many people sleeping on DB Visualizer. It’s been around forever, can connect to anything with a JDBC driver, has a ton of features, and is updated frequently. My favorite is the ability to quickly full text search any query I’ve ever run.
Sounds interesting, but what are good examples of "Visualizer" part? Screenshots section [1] only has 6 (pretty primitive [2]) images out of about a 100 total, but maybe that is outdated?
Finally someone else who has felt that pain of GoodData.. I was hired to make it work after GD's consultants set it up at my current company. What a nightmare. It took a year+ but I finally convinced everyone that it was terrible and we switched to Tableau, which let us use our own db's instead of GD's terrible "logical data model"
I worked at a large public 3PL for 8 years before joining a VC backed startup and at first glance the logistics industry seems ripe for disruption by smaller tech-driven companies. I'm super excited that there are companies out there trying to change the industry. My gut feeling however is that the large incumbents have long relationships, tons of cash, and people on the ground in hundreds of countries around the world. Those things might make it difficult for a startup. How do companies like flexport plan to compete with the Expeditors and CH Robinson's of the world? The place I worked would probably benefit greatly by acquiring a company like this and integrating their tech, but the culture would never allow that to happen.
This has a pretty nice look and feel to it, but I've yet to find something that competes with DBVisualizer (http://www.dbvis.com/). Connect to anything with a JDBC driver, auto-completion, SQL history, auto-generate insert statements using a table's data, etc. Great product.
