"A child learns that a day is 24 hours long; a developer needs to know that is only true in UTC." - @chaffelson

After 1 year at Voltron Data, I found myself along with my teammates and 50+ people in need of a job
I have plenty experience building OSS Python data tools, presenting at conferences and OS community management.
If you think I'd be a good fit for a job please let me know

Should I use a Date or DateTime? Should I store it in UTC? What is ISO8601? What's the best timezone database? Working with dates, times, and DateTimes in databases can be... stressful. Here are 10 tips to make it less so 👉 tbrd.co/datetimes

@JuMaUK We're also getting to where I'm instructing a GPT agent to read your docs and draft an integration, if they're incomplete or not machine readable that's going to be nearly as bad as plain ol' wrong.

@wardbekker @GergelyOrosz @simonw I find the UI gets very laggy if the conversation gets long tho, particularly if I switch between windows
English
@GergelyOrosz @simonw hehe just switches as well. Claude responses feel less shallow and it makes up stuff a bit less.
English
I recently chatted with @simonw about what tools he uses for coding. He told me something all of the lines of
“If you’re not using Claude 3.5 Sonnet, you need to switch. It’s so much better than ChatGPT, in every way (coding, non-coding.” And also uses Claude Artifacts.
Alex Graveley@alexgraveley
Everyone I know is switching to Claude Artifacts as their daily driver. ChatGPT a lot less sticky than everyone thought.

Rockset users scrambling to find a new real-time analytics home....
I'm putting together a public/free Rockset feature comparison matrix.
I want to help educate customers (and other vendors) on what Rockset did so well and what considerations are needed to find a replacement.

JSON warped people's understanding of what data is.
Don't make every piece of data self-describing.
Example: a file with a list of latitudes and longitudes is just a list of integer pairs which the reader gives meaning to. The pairs don't store the "lat" and "lon" names.

Dropping keyboard focus on a Rename action, and dropping the file in the root of the GDrive on a CMD+V instead of the open folder just seems childishly petulant.
English
I am familiar with weaponized incompatibility between @Apple and @Windows back in the day over @Office.
But I hadn't realised that now extended to Apple & @googledrive messing with the copy/paste and rename functions in the Drive/Finder integration.

@wardbekker @LinkedIn It used to be that you'd only get 'My Network' notifications if there was actually a change in your network, like a new Connection Request.
Now it's showing a notification for feed-filler like work anniversaries on the new 'Catch up' view.
English
@chaffelson @LinkedIn wow...that's a new one. how do they look like?
English
Congratulations @LinkedIn on the new fake Connections notification; it has finally killed the last shred of utility I got from your site.

Pretty sure @tinybird have an internal scoreboard of who can lower their revenue the most, by optimizing their customer's pipes
Marc Seitz — oss/acc@mfts0
Tinybird has the best engineering support in the world right now! At @papermarkio, we use Tinybird for recording millisecond-accurate views to documents and provide real-time analytics for our customers. In April, we had over 9,000 views on documents and our Tinybird bill was $350 🤯 Based on our growth rate, we would be doubling our bill in May. This would absolutely ruin our business. 😰😰 I reached out for help in the @tinybird Slack and @chaffelson responded offering to jump on a call with me. I was surprised. I thought they might offer a discount or just shrug it off. I'm sure Papermark is an insignificant customer compared to their enterprise clients. No, Dan spend over one hour with me on a video call. He was so excited to optimize our queries and I was blown away by the results! In May, we had over 13,000 views on documents and our Tinybird bill was $7 If you a building real-time analytics products, starting out and not using @tinybird, your life is harder than it should be.

Thanks @AmazonUK for putting the Kids+ price up - the email reminded me to check the subscriptions my family has and cancel a bunch.
