yeah I love stuff like that. Airtable’s API usable from public places would be so cool
podviaznikov 2017-01-27T19:13:41.000183Z
just started using Airtable myself. Looks so cool. Started thinking that it’s interesting exercise to develop something like airtable using datascript and/or datomic
pesterhazy 2017-01-27T19:26:33.000184Z
@podviaznikov I've been thinking that as well
pesterhazy 2017-01-27T19:26:48.000185Z
airtable based on datomic is totally doable
pesterhazy 2017-01-27T19:27:20.000186Z
a word of caution: airtable is not fit for largish data sets (think >10.000 rows)
podviaznikov 2017-01-27T19:28:21.000187Z
that is interesting, do you know why is that? I don’t have a use case for 10K rows, but still curios why they are not fit
pesterhazy 2017-01-27T19:29:22.000188Z
airtable just breaks after a certain limit
pesterhazy 2017-01-27T19:29:32.000189Z
i.e. their servers crash
pesterhazy 2017-01-27T19:30:05.000190Z
from what I heard they use a proprietary (home-built?) experimental database in the background
pesterhazy 2017-01-27T19:30:18.000191Z
that may be the cause of the instability, I don't know
podviaznikov 2017-01-27T21:28:30.000192Z
just experienced my first airtable problem. Me and my teammate edited the same sheet but different rows and columsn and got conflict error. Don’t know how common is that
pesterhazy 2017-01-27T22:23:41.000193Z
we didn't experience too many conflict errors afaik
