How can I configure and interpret otel's data output to the console effectively?

Honestly, otel's data output to the console is a beast if you don’t tame it. I started using `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES` to add more context to my logs, which made it easier to filter out irrelevant stuff.

Also, if you’re on Linux, `tee` is super handy. You can split the output to a file and the console at the same time:
```bash
otel-collector | tee output.log
```
Then you can analyze the file later.
