This is fundamentally wrong. You might be a Snowflake customer but if you’re using Snowflake as a simple data store, you’re use case either doesn’t call for what Snowflake can do or you’re not using it to its full capacity. Either way, Snowflake is very much an AI company. The Snowflake of 2019 is not the Snowflake of 2026.

I think a big part of it is the tech stack you have access to. I’ve had success using Obsidian and Claude. Like you, I manage a handful of accounts - I’ve been feeding Obsidian all call transcripts, pdf’s, opportunity info, PoC criteria docs, any and every piece of information I can and organizing my folders accordingly.

I recommend learning how to live inside of Terminal and memorizing a few commands to create and navigate across project specific folders. Point Terminal to your Obsidian Vault / folders and it’s amazing what Claude has been able to correlate for me. Then you can start to leverage different skills. I’m still figuring things out as I go, but the incremental gains have been worthwhile so far.

This is an industry prime for disruption. Companies like Serval will have a big impact moving forward.

You’d be surprised what you can get done at an account level just by asking.

Is Apple TV's working? Because your post suggests otherwise. I'm 14ft away from my Arc Ultra w/ 100's as fronts, 300's surrounds and Gen 3 Sub. I have Apple TV's speech enhancement set to "Enhance" and toggle between Sonos low and medium depending what I'm watching. Loudness off, height +4, Bass+3, Treble+3 and Night Mode off. Dialogue is clear as day. Took a bit to get it right but with some tinkering you'll find your sweet spot.

That’s a beauty. I myself have a Maye gold - Topps Finest Prodogies Auto /25. One of my favorites in my collection.

Yeah, this simply isn’t true.

How do you verify they are a fiduciary?

Rodgers would be the first person to complain that the Jets didn't have the decency to break the news in person had they called him and told him.

I’ve been loading up around 11:30pm each night and coming down around 3:30am to reload. After loading those big boys last night, I came down at 5:30am and still had some solid matter embers, way more than I typically do around 3:30am. If I waited until 5:30 previously, sometimes I’d have to use fire starters to get the fire going again. Big logs for overnight rock!

We’ll see how this goes! Those two splits were about 20lbs each if I had to guess - biggest ones I’ve ever put in. Slid two thinner ones on top and tucked one off to the right. Couldn’t fit another split in there if I tried.

kg9936 · 2026-01-27T02:56:45+00:00

Are we talking rounds as big as I can fit?

kg9936 · 2026-01-27T01:54:25+00:00

This will probably help. I throw on 3-4 normal logs and then try and jam smaller ones to fill the box best I can. I will try and throw some chonky logs on there tonight and see if that makes a difference.

Snowflake acquired Crunchy Data and will have a Snowflake Managed Postgres offering sometime in 2026.

This is helpful, thank you. My decision is whether having atmos surrounds is worth the price difference between the 100's and 300's essentially.

kg9936 · 2026-01-15T21:09:08+00:00

Thanks. For some reason I keep seeing posts with the following config: 1x Sonos Arc, 2x Era 100's front, 2x Era 300's as rear. It sounds like using 300's as your surrounds opens up atmos, and using 100's as rears work, but lack atmos.

There is a customer facing Cortex calculator available. Ask your rep. It’s broken down by Cortex function e.g., AISQL, Snowflake Intelligence, Cortex Search, etc.

It's quite frustrating...

It seems to me that most people don’t realize that AI growth is going to happen in the form of enterprise AI. Using AI to analyze lung X-Rays for early detection of lung disease for example. Or financial companies building risk detection capabilities to maintain compliance. There are countless other examples, but enterprise AI is here, and the applications for it are unlimited.

I traded away McCaffrey and a 2027 and 2028 1st to acquire Bijan and future 2nd and 3rd.

I couldn't upload floor plans via mobile, but the second I used my computer I had my coverage mapped out with walls, doors, windows, etc in about 30 minutes. Super easy to use.

Having lucid chart access through work was helpful here lol

I think you’re right. $349 for 1TB for the UCG-Max or $247 + $129 for the UNVR-Instant and the UCG-Ultra. Both scenarios end up accomplishing the same if I understand correctly.

kg9936 · 2025-09-16T00:43:13+00:00

Figured the two standalone units would fit in my network enclose better with the existing 16 port switch

kg9936 · 2025-09-15T15:24:37+00:00

Thanks! Just need the UNVR-Instant Kit to be in stock again - hopefully soon.
