Giant iceberg #A23a has nearly melted now

But should we have a new naming convention? What should we call Antarctic Icebergs?

We have Boaty McBoatface for a boat.

This iceberg was once the biggest in the world. Now it has just weeks left

A23a was once twice the size of Greater London but it's spectacularly disintegrated over the past year.

A good friend of mine has an open #dataengineer position in his group. Stack is #gcp, #python, #trino, #iceberg

The Company is located in Madrid and supports #remote work across europe. The product is adtech, but instead of using user tracking they use contextual Information from the pages where the ads are shown. Both interesting and morally okish approach.

Feel free to boost or reach out if you are interested.

@zulfian Thanks for providing this application to my desktop! I'm a fan of #Parquet and #Iceberg/#Delta, and the possibilities these formats give with e.g. schema compared to CSV/TSV. Anyways, I have your first issue here: https://gitlab.com/zulfian1732/munquet/-/issues/1 - if you need help, just let me know, and we'll see what we can do together.

#Mamdani’s got more support here today, to clear for our coming storms, very encouraging for us midtown folks. After the Times Square revamp, 9th avenue was transformed (2009) w/ downtown traffic; trees died, four lanes there for a while…
So to see the bike lanes, plantings, and now this ongoing maintenance is encouraging. Sewer Socialism, *in deed*…

#PhotoOfTheDay: Meltwater Turns #Iceberg A-23A Blue

The year that iceberg A-23A first broke away from Antarctica's Filchner Ice Shelf, Ronald Reagan was president of the United States.

Forty years later, the massive tabular berg—one of the largest and longest-lived bergs ever tracked by scientists—is sopping with blue meltwater and on the verge of complete disintegration.

Here we gooo, NYC! 1-3" today, then another 12-16" tonight!
At least the city came 'round and got rid of most of those icebergs on street corners, knowing they'd be making fresh.

[Перевод] Архитектура Lakehouse: три года после хайпа

В 2021 году Databricks ввели в моду термин «lakehouse», и индустрия дружно решила, что это и есть будущее. Аналитики писали восторженные статьи о том, что классические DWH мертвы. Вендоры спешно проводили ребрендинг своих продуктов, а на конференциях обещали единую архитектуру, которая решит вообще любые проблемы с данными. Некоторые обещания Lakehouse сбылись. Другие оказались лишь маркетингом. А еще всплыли проблемы, которых никто не ожидал. В этой статье разберем честный опыт внедрения Lakehouse к 2025 году: какие обещания оказались маркетингом, почему расходы на вычисления часто растут вместо экономии, и как на самом деле выглядит прагматичная работа с Delta Lake, Iceberg и Hudi в современных проектах. Что выжило в продакшене, что тихо скончалось, а о чем принято помалкивать?

Presented at the Berlin Open Lakehouse and AI Meetups, about WarehousePG. Finally found the time to write about the meetup.

My talk was: How we made WarehousePG Open Source (again)

All talks and recordings are linked in the blog posting.

Today we check out what happened to #Iceberg #A23a ? It was the largest iceberg in the world but multiple large breakups have left it much smaller, covered in lakes as shooting off east northeast across the southern Atlantic. #A23 https://youtu.be/GdkSp_8y85Q

It's the 2nd Sunday of March that we *Spring Ahead*
Losing an hour sleep but worth it,
>Saturday night 7th/ Sunday morning the 8th of March.
(We will gain 28 minutes of daylight that week and the week prior we got 26, so it will feel more springy.)
And, #NewYork, we're soon free of ice berg corners, with rain and high 40s forecast later this week ~

🧊🚢🌙 Aujourd’hui, les élèves remontent le fil du naufrage du Titanic !

Le Titanic est un paquebot long de 269 mètres qui compte 8 ponts et peut accueillir jusqu'à 3 000 passagers.

🗣️ Leur débat du jour : Le drame du Titanic aurait-il pu être évité ?

🙌 Sources et bibliographie du jour :
@cite-sciences.fr : La vitesse du Titanic - 22,5 nœuds, soit 41,7 kilomètres par heure -est trop élevée pour la traversée d'une zone réputée dangereuse.
