    100% agree, it's on the todo list! If you just want to see what it looks like here's a demo looking at hackernews data: https://kavla.dev/hn There's also no email verification gate…

    10 years ago I rode my bicycle from Connecticut to Central America. I stayed in Antigua for a few days to just relax and reflect. Thanks for bringing those memories back!

    Working on open sourcing my data analytics canvas: https://kavla.dev/ I've worked on it for about a year, with 1700 commits. I've been going back and forth if I should just open up…

    Yeah I think it boils down to trust issues. I can't know how the text was created. Anything created before 2023 I know that at least a human had to invest a significant amount of t…

    I concur with the author. Personally I think I just won't read fiction produced after 2023. There's so much good literature already produced, why bother with the new stuff? I feel …

    Pretty clever to keep the existing parquet files as is (assuming daily partitioned) to not break any analytical queries. Also creating this index for the first time would make me s…

    As a data engineering person I can say that this is a great write up! Some thoughts: A "bubbling" topic right now is conversational analytics (i.e. talk to your data). There has be…

    I have never heard of Denodo before. "The only real semantic layer" is a bold claim. From the website it just looks like another data governance tool?

    Got another daughter last week! There were a lot of complications post delivery, and I want to make some sort of interactive story about it. We'll see how it goes (Everyone is safe…

    Örebropartiet is like the weirdest party in Sweden. It's named after "Örebro", a Swedish city with 125k population. The party's founder, Markus Allard, used to be far left politici…

    I just started doing this last week! I'm not very good at C++, but coupled with the extension template and codex I got a basic version of my extension working within an hour. Go fo…

    This sent me on a trip down memory lane! So nice that they are still going. I solved a few of their problems almost 10 years ago. Looking at my repo I have absolutely regressed mat…

    Cool! But as a data engineer I don't know when I would ever use this. Getting data into a centralized place so it can be joined and queried easily is like prio 1 for any data team.…

    I recently picked up writing short stories again. I briefly looked at different editors, but ended up just doing it in vscode (daily driver). I'll make sure to look at cheese paper…
