[15:48:41 CST(-0600)] <athena> ok, i think that makes sense
[15:49:10 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so the first thing you're interested is actually the date range
[15:49:13 CST(-0600)] <athena> so we're going to wind up with some pretty complex queries to get the right date range back
[15:49:30 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yes
[15:49:36 CST(-0600)] <athena> ick.
[15:49:42 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> an unfortunate side effect of the dimensionality
[15:49:49 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> which is needed to reduce the number of rows
[15:49:49 CST(-0600)] <athena> and even worse once we start considering datetimes
[15:50:08 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> if we embed all the date/time info in each aggregate the number of rows starts to balloon
