Really hate to watch online course with AI Robot Voiceover.
What is the purpose of forcing people to watch it while it can’t even taught by human???

On March 28, a powerful M-7.7 earthquake struck Myanmar. I created this collection to compile updates from BlueSky to document that tragic event.
This feed focuses on locally relevant keywords that MM people are more likely to use.

Diagram showing the Python 3.10+ syntactic feature that allows you to combine types with the operator pipe |. Full example source code: def is_number(x): return isinstance(x, int | float | complex) print(is_number(34)) # True print(is_number("hey")) # False
Since Python 3.10 you can use the pipe operator to combine types – this creates a type union.
This can be used, for example, when you want to check if a value belongs to one of 2+ types with `isinstance`.
Here's an example 👇
I've had a crazy few days with my advent calendar of code, looking at Tobiko's SQLMesh with @duckdb.org.
Yesterday, I mentioned in my post that I needed to bring in some data from @bsky.app's HTTP endpoints, and I was going to try using dltHub.

A screenshot from my Bloom Filters blog post, showing a visualisation of the bits inside a bloom filter after the words "loved" and "your" have been added. There is also a code sample visible that reads: let bf = new CountingBloomFilter(); bf.add("loved"); bf.add("your"); bf.remove("response"); bf.contains("loved"); // false
A screenshot from my Queueing blog post. A list of goals can be seen that says: - Add 15 requests to each queue. - Add 10 priority requests to each queue. - Drop 15 requests. - Drop 10 priority requests. Below this task list can be seen a visualisation of 4 different queues.
A screenshot of my Turing Machines blog post. A Turing Machine running the first program seen in Alan Turing's 1936 paper can be seen, it prints alternative 0s and 1s to the tape.

This is one of the first that came out of that—integrating dbt, airflow, and superset into a single portal with permission management and multi-user context.
Disclosure: I have worked on it for a year. Try it yourself, getting started with the single docker-compose cmd.

Do you use a makefile to manage your #dbt commands?
Mainly used for compiling code, you can actually use a makefile to run any commands
A makefile a great way to
- reduce command fatigue
- group commands
- abstract your common tasks

The testimonies of the people of Gaza. I have no more words. There is nothing more to say. We have failed the call of humanity in such a fundamental way so many times throughout history, but it is another thing entirely to have had so much access to it this time.

Four years in the making and finally released today: The Software Engineer's Guidebook is out!! Get it on Amazon or via engguidebook.com
@whereistanya.bsky.social described it like this: "This book is well named: it really does feel like the missing guidebook for the whole industry."
This #PGSQLPhriday, Chris Ellis asked about the weird and varied things that people are using #PostgreSQL for. I decided to try to explain a bit about what I'm using Postgres for in my PhD research.
Look out for all of the other #PGSQLPhriday posts!

Loved talking with Matty about data, the data journey, how to make resilient data platforms and data streaming!
A good test to see if you’re writing maintainable code is to re-read it six months later.
Both pandas & tidyverse fail this test, unless I add copious comments about the shape/content/schema/types of the data frames after each transform. Comments should not replace data structures and typing…
Respectfully, the War in Tigray from 2020 to ~2023 was this kind of war, with millions displaced, war crimes denied by all parties, massive disinfo campaigns, international aid blocks, and regular telecom blackouts across northern Ethiopia. I can’t begin to tell you how bleak things were and are.
