It seems Nao from @blef.fr just got open-sourced.

Nao is a framework for building and deploying an analytics agent. Focused on data engineers. Included is a nao-core cli for getting context on metadata, modeling, and rules.

And a chat UI to run analytics on your data.

πŸ‘‹ Reminder: the Gemini APIs in ai.dev have a batch mode, which not only saves time – but also money (up to 50% of the standard costs)!

If you're sending in many requests all at once, I strongly, *strongly* recommend taking a look.

Love that the smirking alligator is both a hypothetical wildly different species that would exist if evolution were real and also a species that looks just like us and there evolution is not real. Good work, alligator!

🎸✨Instead of hiding my questionable and ever-evolving @lastfm.bsky.social history, I built a Python bot to roast me about it every morning!

πŸ€– Poe API + ScriptBot (w/ Gemini⚑️)
βš™οΈ @github.com Workflows (running daily for free)
πŸ“© Gmail (to bring it all home)

And the best part? ~$1.75 per year to run.

Data Identity Politics and The Kimball vs. Inmon War Bill and Ralph don't care, and neither should you. It's time to move on.

β€œThe bigger point is simply that Bill and Ralph don’t care. If you’re still upset about the Kimball vs Inmon wars, see a therapist and get help.”

A red on white shirt design depicting a cartoon cat and a cartoon dog in a street fight, slashing at eachother with knives. The dog has brass knuckles, the cat has a chain, the cat's head is not connected to its body and the dog's torso is cut in half. The cat says "is there no escape from this cycle of violence?"
The dog replies "what tragic creatures we are, built only to inflict and to feel pain."

Last new shirt design of 2025, with an important message that i think could bring about a lasting world peace if everyone buys one that is my hope

A new PNAS paper finds that polarization increased immediately after the release of Lady Gaga’s β€œJust Dance” and the advent of the late-2000s electro-pop era, which both appeared around the same year, 2008.

Just presented this! You can check out the code here:

(note: the layout is screwy and config options don't get shown, but not bad for coding by voice while out and about and not even looking at the results until around midnight). No code was actually touched by me.

Remember when Childish Gambino released the video for This is America and everyone was amazed at all the symbolism? The stuff from the Trump admin is like the funhouse mirror of that with the polarity all flipped.
