ChatGPT rickrolled me once.

Pretty sure that was the closest we’ve been to AGI.

What if Parquet didn’t just store data, but stored knowledge?

RAGs are starving for structured data with context.

What if we embedded ontology links, units, provenance and entity relationships directly into Parquet metadata?

Who else is thinking about this? 👀

OUR THINKING IS OUTDATED. Evolutionary beggere: • Survival required left-brain precision. • Long-term thinking was secondary. The Industrial Revolution prioritized efficiency over explontion. Our brain resists ambiguity, fevoring quick and detal ciented solutions.

Great topic @ @datadaytexas.bsky.social #datadaytexas

Welcome to The House of Duct Tape Why Data Ecosystems Are Broken and How We Can Fix Them

open.substack.com/pub/datareal...

I’ve started writing about the challenges in the data ecosystem and the burnout faced by data engineers.

These are systemic, cultural and deeply human issues.

I’ll explore practical solutions, systemic thinking and Bridge Skills to rebuild from the ground up.

Lol @helsinkidataweek.bsky.social wants to know too!! 😄

@dataengbytes.bsky.social is awesome. 🤩

Interest piqued.

JEF, subsidiary of NATO has activated some kind an AI dubbed ’Nordic Warden’ to take in data from AIS and ”other sensors” in Baltic Sea to monitor and proactively react to threats by the Russian shadow fleet.

I love Databricks btw but it seems idealistic and a bit of a gamble tbh. Cash flow is a big problem, global economic risks, growth will slow down after a while. Profitability will take a few more years, cost-cutting could affect R&D letting competitors catch up. It will be a brutal road ahead.

Data, ML, GenAI or humans:
Who makes the best decisions?

📊 Data gives you the historical facts.
⚙️ Machine Learning (ML) predicts outcomes but struggles with the unexpected.
🤖 Generative AI (GenAI) generates ideas.
🤷‍♀️ Humans? Creative and visionary, but slow and biased.

The answer? Combine them.

Hey gang!

Just hanging out with my dearest Helsinki Data Week crew @jkor.bsky.social, @youcanbeapirate.bsky.social & Säde Haveri!

Can’t believe it’s not Xmas.

How much money has your company wasted on data projects with no real value?

✅ Don’t chase shiny tools.
✅ Start with real business problems.
✅ Build tailored, actionable data products to solve them.
✅ Ask: Does this help customers/employees?

🚫 If not, stop.

Simplicity wins.

That feeling when you start your data journey and discover pd.read_csv. 🥰

Still remember that.

What a gateway drug.

“You guys weren’t self taught”

Every time is hear someone in data say “I’m self taught” I think — “is there another way?”

#dataBS

It’ll be fine I think 🤷🏼‍♀️😄🫧
