It is likely that these will make it into dbt since there are many dbt users who also use snowflake. The main thing to consider when deciding to some something other than dbt is:

* can you apply software dev best practices, CI/CD etc * is it proprietary or can you use it with other dbs * is there a large community behind it e.g. dbt packages and dbt python libraries * will you also get docs, dq, lineage or will you need additional tools\ing * will you need to orchestrate other aspects of your data flow e.g. EL, then T, then activation, etc

Databricks also has delta live tables and for the reasons above I usually suggest people consider all of these and not just go all-in with one vendor


Are you a dbt developer looking for info on a command or and are you trying to quickly get to the dbt docs as you study for the dbt certification exam.

This handy dbt cheatsheet I created has links to official dbt docs in a simple, organized way.

I had the opposite experience. Got it to run locally, but failed when deployed.


If you resides in California, don't you still need to pay CA business taxes?


Unfortunately, one of the downsides of CA is the $800 annual franchise tax =[. Can't get around it even if you incorporate somewhere else.

Good news is, if you're an Inc you can waive the first year. LLCs can't though.


Yes


If you're doing biz in CA, I'm pretty sure that CA still collects corporate income tax. (I forget if CA still has a unitary corporate tax, but it definitely wants taxes on in-state profits.)


They should start by offering IMAP to all the paying customers of Yahoo Mail. It's amazing that they can do this for iPhone, but not for desktop especially for customers who are paying for this service. Google gives us all this for free.


I agree with the elements on the left or right instead of the top. More real estate there than top


I am looking for someone to help me build a web app. I think it may be possible to do by building or extending a module for Drupal. If you are interested I would share my concept and you can see if it is appealing to you. This way you can gain some experience and maybe we can create something great. :)


I wonder why this was down-voted so much..


lol, tell me about it, I was just offering to partner up, he helps me build an app from which we could potentially both benefit and he gets the experience he is looking for along the way.


Perhaps people interpreted your post like you would only contribute the idea?


maybe, I can program. more front end than back, but realistically I can't completely do any of my ideas n my own :(


Ideas without implementation aren't held in high regard around here. Pick a toy project and learn..


I like it, I too was looking for something like this just the other day.


I love YC, lots of people like me. LOL
