Law as Rhetoric, Rhetoric as Law: The Arts of Cultural and Communal Life (1985) [pdf] (lwionline.org)

I got tired of wrestling with AWS Cost & Usage Reports, so I wrote an open-source script: point it at a folder of Parquet CUR files, run one command, and get fully interactive Rill dashboards that adapt to your tags and cost drivers.

Highlights

Clone to custom dashboards in < 5 min

Ingests many CUR exports at once—even with schema drift.

Unifies schemas. Flattens MAP-type cols like resource tags automatically.

Chooses chart types programmatically based on spend coverage, cardinality, and distibution.

Generates Rill YAML (source, metrics (including measures), canvases) so you can tweak further.

Credit to Dan Goldin (CEO @ Twing Data) for the idea. Would love feedback or edge-cases I missed!
