Another day, another release. pynb.app just got native connectivity for Postgres, Snowflake, Bigquery, SQLite & Flight SQL via ADBC (so it's fast and memory efficient)

You can try this out now!

I was wondering where all the stars were coming from thanks for the shoutout!

I built an alternative Jupyter frontend as a native Mac app. It's also reactive (no weird state issues), supports SQL as first class, has autocomplete, is uv-native amd works with agents (like an *existing* ChatGPT subscription that you already pay for)

Hi data friends that manage data pipelines & like Apache Iceberg— please take a look at my dlt destination for Iceberg that supports REST catalogs. Got some updates so it has full parity with the paid dlthub connector!

I've been working on a universal metrics layer for @sidequery.dev the past few months that works with many different semantic layer formats. I built a demo so you can try it out. Runs 100% in the browser (via DuckDB & Pyodide). Warning large download !

Now includes an instructions improver skill that lets your agent of choice search through your past transcripts to correct common failures & reinforce wins

Lots of improvements to this one... dark mode, gist backend, homebrew support for installation. brew install nicosuave/tap/agentexport

I built a few tools to make working with Claude Code / Codex CLI easier First up is agentexports.com which lets you publish transcripts to the web. Content is end to end encrypted (I can't even read it) and you can self host on Cloudflare if preferred.

Track your Claude Code usage with DuckDB (it's much faster than ccusage)

I find Claude Code pretty effective to help with data analysis. But it's not easy for everyone to setup and manage & has no collaborative capabilities. So I built it into a Slack app.

Been busy lately; I built a DuckDB extension that embeds Claude Code inside DuckDB

Crazy this account / PDS still runs on a free tier Oracle Cloud server

I've been working on a universal semantic layer. It's still a bit early but I'm really excited about its future. Will also be tightly woven into @sidequery.dev Compatible with definitions from Cube, MetricFlow (dbt), LookML (Looker), Hex, Rill, Superset, Omni & there's a native definition format.

The big 3 agent CLIs all have support in @sidequery.dev

Anyone on here into risk analytics / underwriting for alternative lending? DM or email me [email protected]

I wrote a blog post on the @sidequery.dev blog, check it out

New marketing site (and focus) for @sidequery.dev A native macOS app

V pleased with my new hiddenbar setup. No more menubar junk

Er, how was your weekend?

I got a commercial where a lady just kept repeating “Churu” and my cats were disappointed to say the least

Seems legit lmao

Why is it that every time I take a day off I get 5x the new Slack conversations compared to a normal day?

One of my cats is named Jerry. Every time I say his name, my phone activates Siri 🙄

On Saturday, I built a DuckDB extension that embeds a v8 javascript runtime and exposes a few table functions. You can pass arbitrary js code & natural language prompts for which js code is generated and ran.

orthogonal

As I sit here while the clock crosses 6am, I realize I am now running on permanent cat time

Love how my cats know to wait until I'm on a call to jump on the counter / dining table...

Have been busy lately; chipping away at this new SQL notebook UI for @sidequery.dev Here's CTE ejection for times when you need a little more intermediary inspectability!

In a new boba shop and there’s only kiosk ordering

Claude Code isn't perfect by any means, but it's magical connecting to a playwright mcp server and letting the LLM reproduce frontend bugs, fix them, then check work

Why waste time read lot word when few word do trick

Nissan Altima energy (entering through the exit gate of a parking structure)

People talk smack on GCP heavyweight project setup but have you ever used Azure? Holy shit feels like I'm in 1998 crossed with Temu this is egregious

Using Claude Code for the first time seriously and it feels like a text adventure game & I'm here for it

It's weird that LLM provider tribalism is already a thing. Some people wouldn't really consider using a model not from their preferred brand.

Animal shelter near me has 3 paragraph descriptions for all the dogs describing their personalities and preferences but all the cats have a name like "Orange" and no description 😭

Had my 3rd example of Al Pastor pizza in the past couple years and I’m coming around to it

This but HEIC

Few better feelings than waking up from a nightmare & realizing that's not your life

I brought up pitbulls in a conversation about dog breeds with my british uncle a few days ago... whoops lmao

The fact that AWS reserved instance recommendations run once per month or something is terrifying. I opened a support ticket because was still seeing an RI recommended that I bought a week ago but AWS just doesn't update that metric in anywhere close to real time.

Protip: never bank with Goldman/Marcus. It's nearly impossible to get funds out to a non-Goldman account.

Did one of those annoying blocks of errands (that can only be done in the morning) I’ve been putting off for weeks & now I’m in line for fancy bread & pastries. Good start to a Friday!

My parents are taking a 3d printing class with their friends lol

Both my cats will now play fetch. It’s way more entertaining (esp for me) than wand and feather toys.

This has always felt to me like the only way to reasonably use ai for data. We need verifiability more than ever!

I now pretty much use Hex for all reporting; how the turn tables!
