The intro to that post is so bad: "PostHog's original data warehouse had a single goal: delay the moment a company needs to hire their first data engineer."

It is not to serve high quality and timely data to make good decisions, is to avoid hiring a specific role, lol. So bad.

Ironically a good data engineer should probably let them avoid needing 3 different data warehouse systems within a year.
