It’s really me
There are two kinds of people in the world:
1. Those that measure out their Robitussin the right way
2. People like me

Tableau was so so good. I loved the dev interface so much.

I learned tableau way before learning SQL and I’m really glad I did. It was much easier that way.

The closest thing I’ve found to that is the experience from Sigma computing, but they don’t offer a single user tier.

Nothing like a "Weekly Huddle (Mandatory)" to set the right tone on a Monday 👌

This is not my team, thank goodness hahaha.

Wake me up when @duckdb.org supports iceberg catalogs.

Big SQL doesn’t want us to have this.

Start:
I don’t know how we can make this valuable without a semantic layer

Fixed:

Fixed more:

Final fix:
I don’t know

I'm not a data masking kind of guy, personally.

BUT, I wanted to screenshot some anonymized usage data from a usage dataset and it was so easy to apply a mask.

I didn't plan on it, but seeing the "Mask data" prompt in the catalog, I was curious and built it mostly on accident.

Any recommendations for actually scary books?

I’ve been in a mission and haven’t been able to find anything that scared me yet.

I made a dbt setup guide for databricks dev environments.

I think this is the most intimidating part of getting into dbt full time. The training is great, scheduling things is great, but getting that first dbt_rpitcher build can be a little scary
