A silly song created as inside joke with my Data Governance compadre. (I wrote the lyrics and generated the music with Suno.com). #datagovernance #spicy #empanadas #icee
In Master Data Management #mdm, we strive to create "Golden Records." Whenever someone mentions this term, I think of Willy Wonka and the "I want a Golden Ticket" song. So, this year, "All I want for Christmas is... A Golden Record" for MDM Data Quality. #dataquality
Jokes for today (musings during the Mode/ThoughtSpot webinar):
What exactly is a ThoughtSpot?
It's the hole in the middle of a doughnut chart.
Why was the company called "Mode"?
Because "Mean" wasn't very nice.
Today I used #ChatGPT to re-write a complex nested #Snowflake #SQL query with subqueries and a comma delimited FROM clause with WHERE conditions to use CTEs and LEFT OUTER JOINS instead. And it worked!

When you think about #dbt while making #Lasagna. I think it's a good metaphor. What do you think?
