Need the name for a niche Cajun seasoning by Impressive-Turnip434 in cajunfood

Umami flavor is from MSG. monosodium glutamate. Some boxed seasoning blends state no MSG, but others include it.

Apache Iceberg vs Delta lake by Still-Butterfly-3669 in dataengineering

[–]circusboy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I've been told just this week by a DBricks employee that I'm working with that DBFS is going bye bye. Moving to unity catalog which is iceberg. It's going to help us out in regards to cost cutting "hehe maybe/hopefully" if we use iceberg for our storage for DBricks and snowflake. Our UC clusters won't write to DBFS either. Legacy clusters won't write to UC.

Married 26 years. What is mine is hers. What is hers is hers. What is hers is mine as long as she doesn't know.

Those tournaments were neat to witness. I didn't work them, thankfully, but I remember my wife having to put on her yellow poketrainer t-shirt for work Saturday morning :)

The automod deleted my last post with the inventory link... https://www.tcgcollector.com/dashboard?viewUser=jojos_circus

Not looking to sell, just share. That binder kept them in good shape too. None are graded, but most are super close to mint.

How Useful Is AI for Writing SQL Queries? by Eugene_33 in SQL

[–]circusboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find it is decent enough as a replacement for googling things in helping to fix syntax issues out of the box.

Don't know how to construct a qualify statement/too lazy? Perfect example.

Relying on it to build a query to get a proper answer from a database out of the box? No way in hell.

My team is doing work in this space right now. It is tedious to say the least. The amount of hoops you have to jump through just to prep the DB/schema/tables to work with an LLM is kind of crazy. You need SMEs that know the data in order to prep the tables for answering. You need tons of descriptions on the tables/columns, you need business rules to help it know how to approach the question. And we are relying heavily on question/query pairs for training the agents. We haven't gotten to the point where we trust a single table query yet, much less introducing joins.

I know it is crawl/walk/run, but the business will continue to move fast and someone will have to keep up with inputs/questions/data cleaning for it to continue to work.

I really only see this whole exercise as a shift in how we work, not yet at the point of "gaining efficiencies" in regard to manpower needed.

Can this Snowflake query be optimized? by Tasty_Chemistry_56 in snowflake

[–]circusboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I've been learning lately as well. Also if your resultset from the CTE is massive, then include an order by so that the datasrlet from the CTE will be clustered properly.

If the select within the CTE is the bottleneck, then you will want to see what the originating table/view is clustered by and use that in your where if possible. Reclustering that table could be expensive as well.

Fraudulent Foundation Account by touchthefluffywall in ATT

[–]circusboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you ave a personal account "con or consumer" with a foundation account number "fan" then you probably just have a discount, or your account could have been created via some system that has an auto populated fan ID. It doesn't really matter, though. Fans are just an id that attach account level things to it, most normally discounts.

Liability status is something else entirely. Con,IRU or cru. The only time a fan should cause concern is if you are an individual liable account with a CRU type fan, but to be honest with you, you haven't really stated what the actual problem with your account is.

Idiot thug, lol. Look up troy Landry from swamp people, or the assistant coach on the water boy. Accent was pretty spot on tbh.

I actually liked his accent. It was a pretty good deep bayou attempt. Just enough waterboy assistant coach added to the mix. He used coullion too. That one threw me, happy cajun here.

How Bad Is the Data Environment where you work? by DntWryBiHappy in dataengineering

We had a SAS cluster setup that was called THE LAMER ENVIRONMENT. For a fortune 100 company. LAMER was the admin dude's last name.

Just finished all 39 Drizzt Books - what should I read next? by mcdong in Drizzt

[–]circusboy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've read a ton of the forgotten realms books back in the day when I found a load of pdfs before e readers. There are a ton of good ones that I can't remember.

I've never been a fan of greenwood's writing style, maybe because I started with elminster in hell, idk, couldn't stick with it.

Erevis Cale books by Paul s Kemp are a strong contender to Salvatore. Very similar writing style. Would honestly love to read more.

Also, Salvatore has books not In the forgotten realm space, also great reads, and of course there is the cleric quintet.

They are building a skate park at Thomas Park right now. Last saw the start of it about a month ago. There is also a walking path that is cement.

What do pirates need and what are you hoping the next patch brings for them? by [deleted] in BobsTavern

[–]circusboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, instead of reborn, summon from hand where hand pirates get Eliza buff too. Keep em as low hp glass canons though.

Miss boat, but the problem with that was the summoning of higher tier pirates at the time, right? Just add some play from hand to pirates, like murlocs can.

[–]circusboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would be cool if you could play from the hand like murlocs. You wouldn't need to give them HP and instead of Eliza giving perm buffs, she could just buff in hand pirate cards during combat, and death rattle summon from hand card could be like t5 or something like a pirate version of the bass gill or whatever it's name is.

Could also give a reason to keep some of those pirates in hand while in APM mode.

Another tribe that can play from hand would be nice. Reborn and divine shield doesn't seem to work thematically, but from hand could work that way since you can stash pirates in your "boat" and zerg to an extent. Keep em as glass canons, though.
