Watching Tomorrow Never Dies for the first time in many years. M, Bond and co are being rushed through the streets by police and they’re all on the sauce in the car, everyone’s got a large drink on the go

One last house thing of the day, latest video games for the “Wall Hall of Fame” all games finished by me and the kids. Did not 100% Zelda because of some Amiibo nonsense…

Right keep me honest here…small to medium sized data processing workloads (few MB to a few GBs) work very well using Python notebooks with Polars and Delta-rs? I’m writing loads of 1GB files to a lakehouse and it’s very quick…far quicker than Spark

We’re entering the time of year and weather where a full roast dinner in a Sunday is mandatory…. But first more paint needs stripping from wood! To the paint scraper!!

Family watch Strictly and I play one of the greatest Zelda games ever

The form factor and screen size of the original Switch (and OLED) model is perfect. I don’t really like the bulk of the Switch 2…. I get that it was probably necessary to get a bit more grunt and a bigger screen size, but the original was perfect

This isn’t mainly political. I’d have the same problem for any “side“ of the political spectrum dictating term usage and calling people “enemies” for not using said term.

Satya Nadella is using the term Super Intelligence now. You gutless coward Satya

If I catch a single Data Platform MVP using the term Super Intelligence then the program is dead…unsustainable as a respected program

Little PS Portal update…seems it was my PS5 that was the problem. Where it was situated, the WiFi has terrible (~15mbps). I got a booster (which I should have done ages ago anyway), hardwired the ps5 in and now around 140-150mbps. Portal works flawlessly now

I wanted to love the PS Portal I really did…but my word the laaaaaaaaaaaaag is horrendous on an internal WiFi setup that gets about 500mbs…

In Star Trek TNG there’s an episode where loads of enterprise d’s appear from parallel universes, there’s one ship that’s all fucked up and smashed and exploding and that versions Riker is screaming “we won’t go back!!” and I feel like that’s our universe

United States President Donald Trump issues executive order instructing federal government agencies to "use the terms 'Super Intelligence' and 'SI' in place of 'Artificial Intelligence' and 'AI' and will not acknowledge the usage of 'Artificial Intelligence' and 'AI' in any applicable setting."

Also, why be an MVP anymore when you can just watch all the latest updates come in posted by MVPs 🤣. Keep it up everyone! I’m learning a lot

I would have liked to be at #FabCon this year, not so much the tech but just to catch up with folk. But things change, as do priorities. I spent tonight with a hot air gun scraping paint from stairs….

Chatting to a mate about his lad saving up £100 over the last few months to buy FC27 (I think it’s a football game…) and thinking “that’s insane!” and then remembering the cost of games in the early 90s… £50 for NES Gremlins 2… that’s £115 in today’s money 😳

I can’t remember the last time I thought a game was a masterpiece…probably the original Final Fantasy VII (Yeah VI story is also really good). This remake/rebirth is outstanding #FinalFantasy

The number of apologists in this thread is insane… It’s simple, don’t market your product as limitless when there are clear limits (yes I was in the Synapse Analytics trenches). Be clear about your ability to provide your services and people will understand. Limit at creation time and people won’t…

I’ve never used DAMA-DMBOK in any data projects, and after 25 years in data not sure I’m ever going to. The principles just seem to be “common concepts” in data anyway, what makes DAMA special? i find myself once again looking through materials and thinking “ok…so?” dama.org/dmbok2r-info...
