f.lux changes the color temperature of your display based on the time of day, which can be far easier on your eyes. It takes a while to get used to the hue, but it’s an easy solution for headaches, besides blue-light-blocking lenses. The only disadvantage is that, if you’re doing colour-sensitive work, the colour will be distorted, though you can turn it off for as long as you need.
InfluxDB is an open-source tool optimized for fast, high-availability storage and retrieval of time-series data across fields such as operations monitoring, application metrics, IoT sensor data, and real-time analytics. It is the only stack purpose-built to handle time-series data.
