Streaming @SnowflakeDB; before @google, @twitter. I like distributed systems, types, and databases. Also, doing stuff outside.

Incremental processing is the foundation of efficient stream processing across the entire latency spectrum, yet SQL lacks a native mechanism for querying changes to a table over time. Today we present our #SIGMOD paper describing Snowflake Change Queries dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/35897…

Question for Data Twitter. What are your most important SQL Window Function use cases? Rank? Sequence numbers? Rolling Averages? Row Totals? Cumulative Sums? What else?

The #current2022 talk I gave with @takidau is online! It’s called “Streaming 101 Revisited: A Fresh Hot Take”. We talk about what’s missing in existing models and propose new ideas to make declarative stream processing easier and more powerful than ever.

How can we grow beyond the limitations of past #streamprocessing systems? What awaits us when we do? 🤔 If these questions keep you up at night, don’t miss this #Current22 panel featuring @takidau and @sortalongo from @SnowflakeDB. More info: fal.cn/3rtdK

Very excited about our #VLDB2021 paper on #watermarks. We've observed some confusion around the what, why, and how, so it's an honor to get to discuss them in a research context. Give it a read if you're interested! vldb.org/pvldb/vol14/p3135-b…

(The conference was a few weeks ago, but I'm... a bit behind on things. Better late than never!)
I left a comment on a PR suggesting adding a TODO linking to a ticket. That’s a lot of levels of delegation to tell myself to do something…

A developing, autocratic country had the spare time and money to organize an international rescue effort of 13 nobodies, and everyone's mad that the billionaire who tried to help insulted a couple of the rescuers. I'm still rubbing my eyes at the first part.
