Are people calling the Nvidia cosmos paper the next "attention is all you need" but for physical AI systems?

tldr www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRCJ... End of year we tend to reflect on "Best of...". I've been thinking of _craft excellence_, eg cases where someone produces a masterpiece, an example of them just being excellent at their craft.

Day 18, happy holidays friends! youtu.be/GjndggmuhCs

Day 17! Today's challenge is about conditional branching in data pipelines youtu.be/MgkniMnmhMU

Day 16! youtu.be/mrlFdKJlosY (sorry for no video on day 15... life ya know)

Day 14 and mayyybbbbee my favorite day so far. Dynamic code gen and peeling back the onion on ways to combine different Python parallelization "layers" .... what more could you want for a Monday? youtu.be/azfCDBKTIoQ

Lucky Day 13 - all about incremental data processing youtu.be/_WSOaE5mr4g

@loppsean.bsky.social's walk through of asset checks in Day 11 is awesome, do check it out! In some cases, you might not want to re-read in the asset data (or you might even want to compare across previous materializations!) In my example, I use Dagster's metadata system to do just that.

Day 11! The diff between orchestration and data orchestration? Your code can stay the same, still work, but the data can change and break everything! youtu.be/ugS1KQhxWrA

For day 10 of 30 days of orchestration, one of my fave topics: materializing assets in different environments using resources! In my solution to day 10, I added an environment variable, DAGSTER_PROD_DEPLOY, which determines whether to use the folder `data_prod` or `data_dev` if it is not present.

Day 10! Data engineers + Pydantic classes = goodness. youtu.be/f_XfLTlHS-s

Day 9! youtu.be/g4oABNiIOmw

Daty 8, happy Friday! youtu.be/iroAyNM0kxA

Day 7! youtu.be/u9V0As2RZ5k

Day 6! youtu.be/RSUk6DU531w

Day 5! youtu.be/jNCaAYA-MVU

Day 4! (Its not too late to catch up!) youtu.be/Jaann2QiGwQ

Day 3! youtu.be/xUJTal1cq0Y Learn about more complex DAG scheduling, and get a sneak peek of holiday Daggie

Here is my solution: github.com/cnolanminich... For this one, I wanted to play with the new `target` argument 🤩 For the super common scenario of having one job per schedule, add a "target" argument and select the assets you want -- in my case "asset_one" and everything downstream #dataBS

Me trying to figure out Power BI pricing To share content and collaborate in Microsoft Fabric, your organization needs to have an F or P capacity, and at least one per-user license.

Day 2! Its a holiday week, lets talk how you accommodate business schedules with cron youtu.be/Wja1EmyIexE

I've spent time in all 3 cloud provider consoles, unequivocally Azure is the worst. I don't mean to offend ... If I am.... DM me. Maybe you can show me the ropes? Example: the organization > account > subscription hierarchy, when applied to roles, is insane. I am sudo. Respect my authority!

Lets GO! Day 1 of 30 days of orchestration youtu.be/RP6B1wXug_0 This will certainly be the most contentious video, because it starts by creating a Python environment (and of course, includes debugging said environment live).

There are two types of Git commit messages: 8:00am: ae678pt: "as described in the linked RFC, implementing changes to the partition strategy to reduce hotspots in our cluster index" 4:49pm: stcm98: "f-ing typos, try again. pleeeeease pass"

ok friends. if you do cron, airflow, dagster... _please_ watch this 5 minute snippet its the crux of everything we at Dagster have been working on for redefining DAG automation, and I think it could save you from a lot of PITA headaches youtu.be/Z77s50b_Sks?...

Sometimes people want to know what a sales engineer does Its this www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNuu...

Another DOGE suggestion Require 401k providers to give you the option to initiate a rollover to another firm without talking to their shitty sales team and _faxing_ forms.

Week of cool @dagster.io releases going on right now! 📆 dagster.io/data-platfor... (this link will have you register, give you a cal invite, and you can watch the videos via a live stream each day) OR ⏩ DM me and I'll send you the youtube videos when they're uploaded later on

I'm obsessed with everything about this video. If a prospect stops responding to me, I'm just gonna send them this link. youtu.be/Am7kr_lLbsw?...

The real DOGE would be eliminating SAS and paper submissions ... iykyk (Too soon, serious, or scary to shit post about... perhaps) But really, in the year of our lord 2024, people still can't decide how to validate R (a pharma once told me they mailed in the printed out source code of R core)

Leading a sales engineering team is weird. Call: "Do how should we handle late arriving data?" Me: "The only late arriving data I've dealt with in 2 years is the slack message with the context for this call... that I just got" It's not impost syndrome when you're actually an imposter

Realized today my daughter may never have to balance a check book. We live in a time when even the old church ladies take venmo I miss the days of old where they'd take a check and you'd just wait... and wait... to see if they ever cashed it Tech takes the suspense out of life!

One from the archives. In 2022 I worked at Google and wanted to be a thought leader loppsided.blog/posts/2022-0...

New post about bikes: loppsided.blog/posts/2024-1... PRO: It's pretty amazing that the pipeline I set up in 2019, distill + Rmd + Netlify, still works. Thanks, JJ CON: The in-line RMD spellcheck/Grammarly experience is very 2019, and apparently, I've developed crutches. Advice?

modal.com/blog/the-fut... Great example of using simulation to inform product strategy. Any other examples folks know of?

I hope my friends never find out. #databs

It took me too long in my career to figure this out, so re-posting here If you use Python with VS Code, be sure to add these settings: "python.languageServer": "Pylance", "python.analysis.typeCheckingMode": "basic" This will give you a super power: not messing up Python typed arguments

Reading Nvidia blog posts - true gems in there, but tons of 3 letter acronym syndrome Then saw this horrific Snowflake ad with the gag play on words "RAG and Roll". So here is my Nvidia rap: Grab the NIM from the NGC, use NEMO and Llama3, finish with TAO via LlangGraph, and hit me with TensorRT!

Am I the only one subject to: - Chrome always has an update, even after an update, and so 1password never lets me sign in with fingerprint - I have Chrome set to "open a blank page", but whenever it has a pending update, it defaults to "open all the old tabs" Paper cuts on paper cuts

Dagster is to Airflow as ________ is to LangGraph Really enjoying this agent RAG tutorial, but creating the DAG feels fairly verbose? github.com/NVIDIA/Gener... Also, since when did "writing software" get rebranded to "agentic" ?

👋 I guess my introduction to Blue Sky would be - Try packagemanager.posit.co/client/#/ to source R and Python packages - Consider uv to install python packages instead of pip My espresso setup is currently a 9Barista. I have lots of bikes and try to ride them every day.
