yay, we've beefed up the honeycomb Free Plan -- and you can now sign up for it directly, without going through a sales trial! @fishmegs has a post on why this is so philosophically core to our mission: 🐝❤️ honeycomb.io/blog/free-as-i…

when you're dealing with distributed systems, a part of the answer lives in your brain, and a part lives in each of your coworkers.
raw systems data is critical, sure, but even more meaningful? how you and your team interact with that data. *that's* where superpowers live.
