I love how this comment proves the need for audio2audio. I initially read it as sarcastic, but now I can't tell if it's actually sincere.

I didn't see this in the blog post, but did you train this from scratch or finetune an existing base model? If from scratch, quite impressive that the model is capable of understanding natural language prompts (English presumably) from

How does datasette work with unstructured data? I work with large text datasets, and I typically have to go through hundreds of samples to evaluate a dataset's quality and determine if any cleaning or processing needs to be done. A too

I was hoping this would be a lot more targeted. What if I want to focus on my rear delts? Subscapularis? Serratus anterior? Yes, I have bad posture.

Thank you for open sourcing this. More competition in the budding metrics ecosystem is good for end users. It seems like you think MetricFlow should be the data mart layer and not just the metrics layer. If that's true...why? Why would

For any dbt users, their reliability package has the best and most comprehensive way to upload artifacts directly to the warehouse after a dbt invocation. https://github.com/elementary-data/dbt-data-reliability

I've been a hightouch customer for nearly a year now, and I have to say the team and product are both great. That being said, isn't it a bit late for a Launch HN post? :P

do you run dbt under the hood, or did you create your own transformation layer solution?

Does this imply airbyte only supports connectors that airbyte validates and integrates into the platform? Can I use an airbyte connector that lives in a repo on my private github? This solves the problem of getting high quality connectors b

Sometimes it feels like we're in the midst of a loneliness epidemic, created or exacerbated by technology like the internet. But the data doesn't actually line up with that belief: https://ourworldindata.org/loneli

I once thought community-based mesh networking could disrupt last-mile internet providers, beyond its obvious value in remote areas and disaster zones. If we could get decent bandwidth with a freemium/pay-as-you-go model, it would be w

I love the paradigm and I think the Narrator team has done a great job so far, but I'm unclear about the business model. Are you still operating as a consultancy, or are you providing tooling?

Question for the narrator folks...what about using dbt to create the activity stream?

Making use of airflow's plugin architecture by writing custom hooks and operators is essential for well-maintained, well-developed data pipelines (that use airflow). A little upfront investment in writing components (and the most painf

I would make use of ETL-as-a-service vendors as much as possible (Stitch, fivetran, etc.) before going to airflow/prefect for the more custom stuff. Airflow 2.0 will have some pretty nice features for ML development as well.

Correct, which is why I'd like to see this same analysis redone once social distancing is relaxed and the situation on the ground (e.g. in Seattle/Portland) stabilizes, but people are still working from home.

It's important to note that remote work in March/April/May (and perhaps even today) was uniquely coupled with remote life, since most knowledge workers stayed home due to social distancing guidelines. It should not be surpris

As much as I agree with your general sentiment, Apple Maps, like many of Apple's mobile apps, gets a boost from Apple's anti-competitive practices. It's utterly ridiculous that we can remove default apps from iOS, including M
