You know what always needs improvement? Logging.

Why?

Because everyone logs all the things, but doesn't think they need to break up the logs to differentiate functionality.

So, you get 58k log lines for "Info", without a single differentiation for what those lines mean, which means you now reference the source code to find the goddamn line and compare outputs to the string being formatted.

Devs, stop trying to be clever here. Fucking be clear, concise, and make the line simple.

Anyway, this is just a subtext to say "fucking querying your goddamn logs to make a fucking dashboard with SQL sucks".

Thanks Google for encouraging people to use your GCP Logging module. It's both a delight and a goddamn pain in the ass.
