Positron 2026.11 adds an object explorer! It's like our data explorer, but for hierarchical rather than rectangular data.
It works great with all kinds of lists, models, dicts, and JSON and has support for deep searching, sticky scrolling, and inspecting.

Data job ads keep getting longer, but across data roles they ask for the same six things: data engineering, cloud, analytics and BI, machine learning, programming, and soft skills.
Here's what each one means in practice.

PSA for anyone dealing with stockout errors in GCP, particularly in Cloud SQL: if your workload supports it, it seems like ARM-based machine classes have considerably more availability than x86-based classes, especially at higher vCPU counts. Hopefully I can save someone some headache. #dataBS

There's also links to articles on the data platform product navigator, rebuilding LinkedIn's tracking infra, and moving away from DuckDB.

You don't need AWS, Azure and GCP to get a data job. You need one.
Pick the one that comes up most in the jobs you want (and, frankly, the one whose UX you can live with) and learn it properly. The others will feel familiar later, because most core services have an equivalent.
