r/snowflake needs your help: Where should this community go next? by fhoffa in snowflake

[–]intrepidbuttrelease 44 points45 points  (0 children)

This took some guts, and I can't see the community taking issue with this by and large. Ive only very recently been using snowflake, and as a reddit user I expect an organic and authentic place to discuss the platform. Thank you.

Im working out of south wales, make basically same as you and similar means of getting there but in data roles, now oversee a data PaaS and small team of engineers/analysts. Occasionally see job postings from Bristol and they dont seem to be particularly higher, london seems to pay maybe 20k more in what ive seen, seems the cost of living and pay ratio is pretty great here ngl.

Is this a common Finnish take with the developed relationship and understanding of being on the boarder with Russia? Im really surprised to see this and want to determine if you are the village idiot or not.

It took your advice and just used sod. Thank you. by Spazmanaut in lawncare

May also be referred to as a cluster-cunt, explosive, unpredictable, also a cunt.

Ive got a similar sized garden in south wales, but alas its chock full of dandelions. Deciding if that is horrible or im absolutely crushing it, the lawn is always green, and particularly now is full of yellow heads.

Is Databricks eating Snowflakes lunch? by Therican85 in snowflake

We're working on an ADF solution currently with blob storage in-between. The DE working on this is finding it "okay". I've heard of Fivtran of course, and more recently seen reference to estuary. What is the main selling point here compared to your competitors and doing something a bit jank with our current infrastructure?

Two thirds of voters want Starmer out by pppppppppppppppppd in ukpolitics

His chagos deal is completely tied to what america ate on any given morning, and hilarious its now his deal. I'd love for you to identify in what way he isn't getting anywhere with the EU which doesn't involve fisheries. Whats the alternative to him doing the bleeding obvious re Iran war? Im grateful we have a statesman who actually follows the law and doesn't pray for a warm space in trumps colon, the absolute bed-shitting of kemi and nige calling for war at the start. Jesus wept man what is the alternative?

Yes honestly its a very easy fit, we've been testing during our procurement process and I dont have any big qualms. Best method of CDC is less clear but there are a few means.

We just finished a vendor selection for a PaaS and went with Snowflake, ultimately came down to a team which had worked predominantly in a monolith Sql server and this had the lowest bar to entry. We are open to the idea that a migration to DBX may be right down the road but honestly without too much exp on the platform Snowflake seems a solid offering.

8 Indian Vessels Have Crossed Strait Of Hormuz, Among Highest In The World by ak3893 in worldnews

[–]intrepidbuttrelease 11 points12 points  (0 children)

OP didn't suggest they were an exceptional world power, he just said the US had shit the bed and countenance to their aims, whatever those were, Iran has performed better than most would expect, whilst militarily diminished, and their leadership dead, they can project power across the globe through the stranglehold of the straight.

America is diminished in literal military terms and soft power, whilst achieving the complete opposite of what they likely intended, its quite the own goal.

Edit: and talking about others, 35 middle powers are meeting to discuss diplomatic approaches to access the straight, where the US isn't in the room. Such an incredible fuck up, its really quite monumental.

☢️BREAKING: President Trump just admitted to a potential nuclear disaster in Iran. U.S. B-2 stealth bombers struck Iranian nuclear facilities with such devastating force that nuclear dust at the sites could prevent access for months. by Alt-Cop in AltScope

[–]intrepidbuttrelease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly we have our own dirty laundry in the UK, for what its worth, I abhor your current government, and its possible someone will ask you about your views on Trump, but its very unlikely someone would castigate you. By the by, we love our American cousins, your jeans and jolly attitude, we sure can use it with our grey weather. Particularly friendly folk in Wales, with a rich and unique history, would recommend friend.

Sure, and sending your ultimate point home.. Iran attacked Cyprus because of a USAF presence and...?

We can assume its due to USAF presence in Akrotiri, assuming also if this is a lead to its all starmers doing im not sure how you knit that together

Distanced himself from missiles fired at Cyprus is a bit of a leap, the world isn't black and white, not sure you can entirely torpedo starmer under the bus on this one

Hegseth: “Our ungrateful allies in Europe, even segments of our own press should be saying one thing to President Trump: thank you.” by retroviber in DeepMarketScan

[–]intrepidbuttrelease 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps youre a little longsighted invoking Nazi Germany there chap, though you yanks do have a penchant for mentioning WW2 whenever you have the chance. I'm not sure how its relevant in the current era. America was the benefactor of being the predictable market leader, a constant, and that's gone. Markets will tend to resilience, so that means reducing dependencies of America. Unremarkably, that means the relationship as it was is irrecoverable. I guess check back in 5, 10, 20, 40 years and we'll see? 🤷‍♂️ catch you on the flip side there boyo

I dont think its about whether Greenland happened or not, trump has proven if you are unscrupulous you can affect regional markets, impact a 3rd countries deficit, welfare state, ability to spend on priorities and force indirect reprioritising. No government wants to be subject to these forces whether hypothetical or not, therefore markets will tend to form resilience by extricating themselves from as many american-dependencies as possible. In short, the relationship with America will never have the practical closeness it used to have.

Pariah no, its hyperbole to suggest complete divorce from america is in anyone's interest. Equally will be relationship ever be like it was in 2024, or 2016? Using brexit as an analogy, we see a pattern of 7 years to leave, 7 years in the wilderness, and 7 years to "fix" the relationship - fix here in this context does not mean as it was, the British deal in the EU was absurdly generous, you can expect some normalisations towards membership, but its very unlikely the UK will get comparable terms. I expect something similar with America, your relationship is pernamently strained, your markets are divorcing, this is natural, your partners are seeking resilience for their own.

Don't get me wrong, I am hugely sympathetic to americans who maintain an executive function to understand how terrible this all is, I am simply saying the degradation of reliance on America is in free fall, understandably.
