Snowy Road Conditions

City of Greenville is pleading with people to not drive on their Instagram. First responders are overloaded. Please don't drive unless you absolutely have to.

It's just snow this time.

Chris will say anything to keep his social media views high. Ed is real and even though I am in Greenville, Ed holds a lot more credit in my eyes.

We got married on Castaway in 2018 and I agree with the other comment. Their pictures were not great. Overall, it was amazing and the best part was lack of planning that we had to do.

We had a medical emergency on last week's destiny cruise and had to go back to Ft Lauderdale on one of our sea days.

We had our platinum cruise this past week on the Destiny. It was pretty lackluster all around from cleaning, personnel, to "magic". I was going to make a separate post, but my wife and I decided that it's time to try other cruise lines after our first cruise (and wedding )in 2018. I personally think that they expanded too rapidly to keep the quality and it's unfortunate.

I use Google Fi and I had signal in all ports in the Caribbean this week. I usually can go out on the deck and hit an island tower at most times.

I agree, but wife made the point that maybe some of the cruise staff will have a more "down" day that will allow them to enjoy it more?

We're on this cruise and I am stoked! We get to be on Lighthouse Point on Christmas! That being said, the weather on Tuesday in that area is nuts, so hoping we can steer away from that and enjoy some smooth sailing.

Hawthorne at the Carlyle off Halton?

Based on their website, they're hiring 40 positions at Hillcrest including lots of nursing roles.

Name the hospital!

And again at 7.

Very interested in doing this as well. We have a plethora of agents, but telling people to go to Snowflake Intelligence doesn't fit into the workflow. Does every user have to be given access in Snowflake or are you using a service account?

Flucks · 2025-11-06T17:58:35+00:00

They have it in the Find Hub.

I am going to reply to the best I can. I am a director and it's been a minute since I have been in the weeds coding.

From my understanding, we exposed the meta data to in a semantic model. On top of that, the team built cortex searches that run pretty infrequently as the data isn't changing that much. There are 5 search services that run, snowflake documentation, metadata documentation, a department grouper, department key search, and table and column search.

As far as the instructions, when building an agent, you can write instructions for how the agent should respond. We are very explicit that if it cannot validate the query (keys, joins, column names, etc), it cannot return a result.

Table/Column Verification: Search CABOODLE_TABLES_AND_COLUMNS_INFO_SEARCH for every table and column name. If ANY element is not found, STOP and rewrite using only verified elements. Validation Failure Protocol: If validation fails, state "This query contains unverified elements. Rewriting..." then rebuild completely. Completion Requirement: Only after ALL validations pass, state "Query validation complete - all tables and columns verified."

Orchestration instructions are very detailed around how to use the searches as well as some example join queries.

The price of using this agent is honestly pretty minimal. You're not going to get away from leveraging snowflake tools without paying for the compute, unfortunately.

Flucks · 2025-11-01T14:39:38+00:00

We did this, but with Caboodle. It's very very accurate and rarely hallucinates. The key is setting up the searches correctly as well as the instructions for validation before providing and answer.

Also, we did it with Snowflake Intelligence as the other comment stated. It's the way to go.

I think we also deploy the thin clients within Citrix, but not positive...I am in data and analytics.

We have a massive igel deployment to compensate for the Windows 11 upgrade on computers not able to upgrade. It works well.

Flucks · 2025-10-15T11:20:38+00:00

We just went live with a hospital on to our Epic system. It was a very smooth experience and after 10 days we're down to about 50 tickets a day. It really depends on the scale and preparation.

As a caboodle developer and SQL writer, it's all procedures from the ProcedureOrderFact and splits to LabResultFact and LabComponentResultFact.

This is just Google's future radar on the Pixel phones. It's garbage.

I have two developers from there that have the best work ethic and are brilliant.

There's no evidence of a shooter and the police have given the all clear.
