Tristan talks with Mikkel Dengsøe, co-founder at SYNQ, to break down what agentic coding looks like in analytics engineering. Mikkel walks through a hands-on project using Cursor, the dbt MCP server, Omni's AI assistant, and Snowflake. They cover where agents shine (staging, unit tests, lineage-aware checks), where they're risky (BI chat for non-experts), and how observability is shifting from dashboards to root-cause explanations.

Most companies experimenting with AI run into the same roadblocks: messy data, stalled pilots, and unclear next steps. Brian Gannuscio has spent over a decade helping organizations move past those barriers by focusing on the architecture that makes AI possible. In this episode, he explains why waiting for perfect data is a mistake, how tools like Snowflake and Salesforce Data Cloud work together, and what it really takes to modernize without driving up costs. You'll also hear concrete stories—from uncovering $50M in new sales to cutting approval queues by 70%—that show how smarter use of data translates into results.Episode Highlights(06:00) Why “perfect” data isn't required to start using AI(08:15) How one project uncovered $50M in new sales opportunities(13:00) What a modern data architecture actually looks like in practice(15:40) Using zero-copy connectors to simplify access for business users(19:00) Turning a 25-page Word doc into an AI tool that cut approval queues by 70%(22:30) Natural language as the next interface for data(25:30) How AI shifts focus from manual “junk work” to higher-value priorities(29:00) Why content quality matters just as much as data quality in AI projects(37:00) Why so many AI pilots stall — and how to build use cases that scale

The Untold Story of Bryan Kohberger: Digital Ghost to Prison Snowflake The Bryan Kohberger case is more than a courtroom headline — it's a labyrinth of unanswered questions, eerie parallels, and a man unraveling in real time. This full breakdown with retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer pulls no punches, exposing the mysteries and the psychology behind one of the most infamous names in true crime. First, there's Pappa Rodger, the anonymous online persona who seemed to know far too much before the public ever did. Posts about knife sheaths, entry points, and crime scene choices echoed Koberger's criminology surveys almost word for word. Law enforcement says it wasn't him — but the eerie similarities force us to ask: if not him, then who? Then, there's the collapse of the so-called “criminal mastermind.” Behind bars, Kohberger isn't projecting dominance. He's complaining about meal trays, fearing inmate threats, and grasping at legal straws. Far from the image of control, what emerges is a fragile man crumbling under pressure, proving that theory and reality are worlds apart. But the red flags didn't start in prison — they were flashing years earlier. As a teaching assistant at Washington State, Kohberger racked up thirteen formal complaints in just three months. Students described intimidation and harassment. Professors warned colleagues he was dangerous. One student even wrote: “my TA looks like a murderer.” The signs were there, and they were ignored. Add to that the odd gaps in evidence collection — items tested for blood months later, reports that feel incomplete — and you see the picture of a case that is both airtight and unsettling. Not because the outcome is in doubt, but because the process leaves you wondering what else is still in the shadows. This isn't just the story of one man. It's a story about how institutions miss warnings, how digital ghosts confuse investigations, and how the façade of control collapses under real-world pressure. Bryan Kohberger wanted to dominate — online, in classrooms, in life. What we're left with now is the truth behind the mask.

The Justice brothers are back from Labor Day and dive into one of the biggest catalysts of the year: the unemployment report. From “bad news is good news” to “good news is bad news,” they map out all four possible outcomes and how each could impact bonds, equities, and the dollar. They also review RSP, small-caps, and the Dow to see if breadth can keep strengthening the bull case. The discussion then shifts to China's AI surge—Alibaba's blowout growth, a domestic chip launch aimed at Nvidia, and DeepSeek's disruptive “Sputnik moment.” Add in September's seasonal headwinds, a packed “Stock It or Drop It” lineup (Ulta, Snowflake, CrowdStrike, Dick's, Wheaton, Delta, Citi), plus Coaches Corner on covered calls, tariffs, and trading setups—and you've got a can't-miss episode.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I dive into Snowflake's record-breaking Q2 performance and explore how CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy is positioning the company for long-term AI-driven success.Highlights00:14 — Snowflake has been a remarkable story of growth and achievement—category creation here around the AI Data Cloud—and it reported last week a very strong Q2 with product revenue up 32% to $1.09 billion. That's the first time it has topped $1 billion. That's the good news. The bad news is that the competition is really intensifying.01:16 — CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy said, “We're also trying to continue to push out new AI solutions and technology as rapidly as possible.” There are startups and similarly sized companies, such as Databricks and Palantir, coming after it in that core market. But also bigger players (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft, Google Cloud, and others) are getting more deeply into this AI Data Cloud space.02:06 — Ramaswamy feels that Snowflake is very well positioned around this end-to-end data lifecycle spot that it has. He has been repeating relentlessly over the 18 months he's been CEO that businesses cannot have a successful AI strategy unless they first have a successful data strategy and are able to execute on that data very, very forcefully and consistently.03:30 — I mentioned Palantir, talked about them some last week—and the phenomenal Q1 it had. It grew 48%. So I really applaud Snowflake for 32% growth. But here's Palantir in a similar space—analytics and AI—growing 48%, which is a 50% higher growth rate than what Snowflake just posted. Databricks is growing very rapidly as well, doing some good things.03:54 — Lots of competition there, but—as always in the Cloud Wars—the biggest winners are always, always the customers. Later, we'll have a long, detailed article on Cloud Wars about Snowflake's Q2 results, perspectives from Ramaswamy, and some of my own thoughts about how this all shapes out.

In this episode of Software People Stories, Gayatri Kalyanaraman speaks with Shikha Munjal, Associate Director Fidelity International, about her dynamic journey across technology, finance, people management and community building.Shikha Munjal's story begins in a small town in Haryana, where she pursued computer science engineering—a choice influenced by her father's vision rather than her own. What started as a decision made for her soon turned into a lifelong passion for technology and problem-solving.She began her career with Accenture in Bangalore, diving straight into the corporate world just two days after finishing her final exams. Although trained in one technology, she was placed on projects with Informatica and data technologies, which opened a new career-long interest in data management and reporting tools.From there, Shikha moved to Headstrong (later acquired by Genpact), working primarily with Morgan Stanley's account, and even spent nearly a year onsite in Tokyo. That global experience left a lasting impression on her work ethic—she admired the Japanese culture of discipline, continuous learning, and deep focus.Her journey next took her to JP Morgan in Mumbai, where she strengthened her expertise in financial services and data-driven systems. But personal circumstances brought her back to the Delhi NCR region, where she eventually joined Fidelity International, her professional home for over a decade.At Fidelity, Shikha grew into senior leadership, taking on roles that blended technology, business analysis, and product management. She emphasized not just building solutions, but delivering real business outcomes—aligning technology with the fast-paced demands of the financial services industry.Along the way, she invested in continuous learning—pursuing certifications in Informatica, IBM, product management, financial analysis, and cloud/data platforms like Snowflake. She transitioned from being a technologist to a business leader and product owner, always guided by her growth mindset.Beyond her corporate role, Shikha has been an active advocate for diversity and inclusion, serving as a chapter lead at AnitaB.org North India. She blends her professional identity with her personal roles as a mother, wife, daughter, and sister, often saying that her strength comes from integrating all these parts of her life.Today, as Associate Director at Fidelity International, Shikha is shaping data strategies, product roadmaps, and inclusive leadership practices—all while staying curious, resilient, and adaptable in an era of rapid technological and business change.Quotable Moments from Shikha Munjal's Episode“The whole is greater than the sum of its parts – I've learned to blend my roles as a mother, daughter, professional, and leader.”“Comfort and growth do not coexist. The moment I feel my work is not challenging me, I know it's time to evolve.”“What keeps me going is not climbing the career ladder, but continuously adding to my profile and learning something new.”“If you enjoy the process of learning, the outcomes will follow naturally.”“In technology, every four to eight years your skills get challenged – you need to continuously upskill to stay relevant.”“I always believed that being connected to the business side meant being connected to the real world – solving real problems, not just writing code.”“We need to embrace uncertainty rather than rush to solve it. Sometimes dwelling on the ambiguity gives deeper insights.”“Data today is like a marketplace—you should be able to shop for it within an organization, but with the right entitlements and governance.”Shikha Munjal is Associate Director at Fidelity International with over 20 years of experience in technology and financial services. She has held roles at Accenture, HCL, Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan, and now Fidelity. A strong advocate for diversity and inclusion, she has led the North India chapter of AnitaB.org. Shikha is passionate about data, product management, and continuous learning, and believes in shaping her career with curiosity and resilience.Shikha can be reached at https://www.linkedin.com/in/shikha-munjal-19370113a/

Carl Quintanilla, Jim Cramer and David Faber engaged in a wide-ranging conversation about Nvidia and what's next for the stock and the AI trade. The world's most valuable company posted a Q2 earnings beat, but the stock fell in reaction to lighter-than-expected data center revenue growth -- and a Q3 outlook that did not include H20 chip shipments to China. The anchors also discussed the lawsuit Fed governor Lisa Cook filed against the Trump Administration, contesting the president's move to fire her. Also in focus: The retail earnings parade led by Dollar General and Best Buy, Snowflake soars, upheaval at the CDC. Squawk on the Street Disclaimer

On this episode of The Option Block, Mark Longo is joined by Uncle Mike Tosaw from St. Charles Wealth Management and Henry "The Flowmaster" Schwartz from Cboe. They discuss the unexpected and muted reaction to Nvidia's earnings, the current state of the market, and the ideal trading conditions for investors. The panel also breaks down unusual options activity in a few unique single names and dives into a lively Mail Block discussion about the VIX and crypto derivatives. Time Stamps (04:54) - The Trading Block The panel discusses the surprising lack of volatility following Nvidia's earnings, despite high expectations and a large straddle pricing. The S&P 500 is up over 10% year-to-date, but the market feels subdued with low volatility and a steady, upward "trudge". Uncle Mike notes this is his "ideal market": boring and making new all-time highs. Technology and energy are the only sectors showing significant movement, with many others "taking the day off." The VIX is "hunching" at 14.25, with respectable options volume. SPY and SPX also have decent, though not record-breaking, paper on the tape. The hosts review the most active single names, including Snowflake's (SNOW) earnings pop, Retti (RETI), and Palantir (PLTR), which continues its pattern of aggressive early-session sell-offs followed by a late-session rebound. A quick recap of earnings moves in names like Best Buy, Burlington, Five Below, and Dell, with many straddles underpricing the actual moves. (22:38) - The Odd Block Onas Holdings (ONDS) Braze, Inc. (BRZE) Westrock PLC (SW) (35:54) - The Mail Block Audience Polls: Mark shares the results of recent listener polls, revealing that most listeners were not comfortable buying the S&P at its current level and that a large majority would prefer to buy rather than sell the VIX December 15 puts. VIX Debate: The show's central question: which level will the VIX hit first, 12 or 20? Both Uncle Mike and the Flowmaster believe the VIX will touch 12 first, driven by the ongoing bull market and low realized volatility, but they both note the high potential for a sudden, unexpected spike. Crypto Derivatives: A discussion on the future of crypto contracts, with a poll showing an overwhelming preference for cash-settled contracts over physically settled ones, due to simplicity and a desire to avoid dealing with the underlying assets. (44:54) - Around the Block  What to Watch: The hosts share what they'll be watching until the next episode, including the S&P 500's attempt to break 6,500, the post-earnings action in Nvidia and Dell, and the overall macroeconomic picture as traders return from summer vacations.        

Jenny Horne goes off Nvidia's (NVDA) gargantuan earnings report that showed a miss on data center revenue but highlighted other bright spots, including Blackwell. She lays out Nvidia's path ahead as shares rebound from Wednesday's post-earnings sell-off. Jenny turns to the software front on Snowflake's (SNOW) earnings, which opened the door to a strong stock rally.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

CrowdStrike (CRWD) shares tumbled despite a strong earnings beat, but Alex Hamerstone thinks the selloff was an overreaction. Hamerstone notes that the cybersecurity firm still has a strong growth story and a competitive edge with its AI-enabled security platforms. Meanwhile, Snowflake Inc. (SNOW) shares soared on a revenue beat and solid guidance, further solidifying its position as a leader in the cloud data platform space. Hamerstone attributes Snowflake's success to its ability to help companies extract value from their growing data sets and sees continued growth potential for the company.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In a special episode of the UAP Studies Podcast, hosts welcome Travis Walton and filmmaker Jennifer Stein to commemorate the 50th anniversary of one of the most famous and well-documented UFO encounters in history—the Travis Walton incident of November 5, 1975. This episode dives into Walton's extraordinary experience in the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest near Snowflake, Arizona, where, as a 22-year-old forestry worker, he was allegedly struck by a beam of light from a UFO and taken aboard an extraterrestrial craft, missing for five days and six hours. Walton shares his firsthand account, describing the encounter not as an abduction but as a possible rescue mission, suggesting the beings may have saved his life after an accidental energy strike.Joined by Jennifer Stein, director of the award-winning documentary Travis: The True Story of Travis Walton, the discussion explores the making of the film, which combines new and archived interviews with Walton, his logging crew, law enforcement, polygraph examiners, and prominent UFO researchers like Stanton Friedman and Richard Dolan. Stein sheds light on the deliberate debunking efforts, including lies and extortion, that attempted to discredit Walton's story and its impact on the lives of those involved.Upcoming event celebrating the 50th anniversary: a special screening of Travis: The True Story of Travis Walton on Saturday, November 8, 2025, from 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM at the Arizona Historical Society Museum (1300 N. College Ave., Tempe, AZ 85288). The screening will be followed by a Q&A session with Walton and Stein, providing attendees with an opportunity to engage directly. A special dinner will follow from 3:15 PM to 5:30 PM. For tickets and further details, visit PhoenixMUFON.com.#TravisWalton #UFOPodcast #UAPStudies

At the EUVC Summit 2025, Mehmet Atici from Bek Ventures aimed a popular narrative—that Europe is underperforming as a tech region. Not because it's untrue, but because it's incomplete.“Yes, there's catching up to do. But you can't argue there's no dynamism in Europe—it's just not evenly distributed.”And once you look closer, the picture changes fast.Much of the “Europe must act” discourse comes from the continent's largest economies—France, Germany, and the UK. But productivity data tells a different story:Poland and Bulgaria are growing steadily.Ecosystems in Tallinn, Lisbon, and Barcelona are booming—fueled in part by digital nomad visas.Eastern European founders are making waves well beyond their borders—with names behind global giants like Databricks and Snowflake.“Building a business isn't a lifestyle choice for them. It's a global ambition from day one.”These founders bring international exposure, capital efficiency, and hunger—without the insular networks that often define more mature markets.Sure, improving regulation—around stock options, company formation, or funding incentives—helps. But as Mehmet put it:“That's medicine without a proper diagnosis.”The bigger issue isn't operational—it's strategic positioning.The U.S. remains the most attractive market: a single language, deeper capital markets, and cultural cohesion.Europe's software market is just 23% of global share, compared to 43% in North America.So even if we fix the mechanics, the gravitational pull of the U.S. won't go away. And in some cases, a European identity may actually slow access to that market—not speed it up.What if fragmentation wasn't our weakness—but our untapped advantage?“The most thriving tech ecosystems are the most politically cohesive—because they serve founders, not flags.”Europe doesn't need to copy the U.S. to succeed. It needs to recognize excellence wherever it emerges, connect the dots, and support founders wherever they're starting from.In Mehmet's words:“Our opportunity is to transcend borders—not erase them.”“Let's not forget: the original EU model was ‘United in Diversity.'”It wasn't a flaw. It was a feature.Europe's next wave of global founders may not come from the centers you expect—but they're already building. Our job is to back them, bridge them, and help them win on a global stage.Let's get to it.Not Just Paris, London, BerlinEurope's Problem Isn't Just PolicyFrom Fragmentation to SuperpowerThe Original European Model Still Applies

Most tools talk about AI. Ashby makes it work. Their all-in-one platform gives AI real structure so recruiters get time back with AI note-taking, feedback summaries, and personalized outreach emails.   Quality of Hire is finally getting real.
More teams are rolling out Quality of Hire programs with Ashby than ever before. What used to be a slide in a quarterly review is now a real strategy, with surveys and reporting built in. It's clearer, faster, and easier to connect to business outcomes.   Community is the new operating system. Ashby already made a big splash with Ashby One, their first customer conference that brought hundreds of talent leaders and RecOps professionals together for a week of sessions, panels, dinners, and live events. With this new funding, they're doubling down on the community by expanding ACE (Ashby Customer Expert) chapters, scaling education programs, and giving local leaders more ways to connect, share learnings, and build lasting networks. … and the word is out. Enterprise teams like Shopify and Snowflake are already in. With 123% growth and fresh funding to fuel what's next, Ashby is just getting started.   Bottom line: Ashby is not just building software. They are building the infrastructure for modern recruiting.   See the full announcement.   Not on Ashby yet? Get a demo today.

What's up SNOWFLAKES!! This week on the millennial manchild podcast we get back into some of our favorite topics. I chat about my muse Donald J Trump and all of his most recent antics and how the attack on BIG BALLS lead to DC being under seige. Also a brave hero emerges with a subway sandwich. Turn in to folks, much love!!

Award-winning filmmaker and long-time MUFON investigator Jennifer Stein joins Martin Willis to discuss her decades in UFO research, her documentary work on the Travis Walton abduction case, and the high-strangeness of Sedona, Arizona. Jennifer shares her experiences at Bradshaw Ranch—rumored to be near an underground military facility—where she's witnessed mysterious lights rising from the ground, unusual orbs, and persistent military helicopter activity. She explains Sedona's energy vortexes, rapid synchronicities, and why the region has become a hotspot for paranormal phenomena. The conversation turns to the Skyfire Summit—a special four-day event marking the 50th anniversary of Travis Walton's 1975 abduction.
