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
