Folks often use things like LoRAs for that.

It's at least CUI. At _least_. I would suggest material that is operational in those regards would be secret or top secret. It had: * timelines of kinetic resource missions * conop…

Lots of folks out there use evidence.dev. It's a simple way to get some BI up and running without needing to deal with licensing / corporate IT, etc. Remember all it takes is 1 emp…

You appear to be describing a classic type 2 or type 4 slowly changing dimension. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slowly_changing_dimension )

Here was my situation. Occasional queries. Over a couple petabyte of data. Customer facing so response in seconds per SLA but > 95 percent of the time the warehouse isn’t running. …

“I can’t imagine being a traditional teacher, and having to teach kids that don’t care.” What I’ve seen is igniting that spark and moving folks from not caring to caring (or realiz…

There are some huge deployments out there. Snowflake (the database) has a big dependency on it for how they do metadata (for example)

Let’s say you work for a SaaS doing analytics. Your boss says “hey! We need to start reporting on new logos. Can you snag those from the DB?” But what counts as a new logo? Does a …

There's a lot of ... sub par BI devs who want to point and click through horrendous PowerBI interfaces and such. Personally i find that style to hamper my ability to express what t…

I'm curious what you hit in dash and plotly that evidence let you overcome. (FTR, I use all of them, lightdash, streamlit, (as well as drop down to flask) etc.)

It's just considered "data" these days. We just look at the Vs of the data and adjust based on those. High velocity? Do X. High volume? Accommodate Y. High variety? ... The other s…

Modified air packaging with carbon monoxide is _very_ common in the US. So the “artificial color” isn’t some dye or something… it’s how the myoglobin reacts to the MAP.

As to Buddy’s just make your own. Snag a blue steel pan, learn the basic dough recipe, snag some decent ingredients and you’re good to go. Zingermans has a pretty decent virtual cl…
