Code generation is converging to free, so why isn't the software getting better? Wes McKinney, Principal Architect at Posit PBC, GP at Composed Ventures (+ creator of pandas, co-creator of Apache Arrow) is taking the main stage with "The Mythical Agent-Month" - a fifty-years-later callback to Fred Brooks. Brooks said adding manpower to a late project makes it later. Wes is here to ask what adding agents does.

HEADS UP!!! Another banger of an episode is here! Listen to Florida Poly Alum Isabel Zimmerman ('21, '23) share her story of becoming a leading voice in Data Science Tool Building and how her approach to problem solving has landed her on some of the biggest stages As a Senior Software Engineer at Posit PBC she is building practical tools that have opened up doors to keynote speaking at conferences around the country!

What does it look like when AI-powered data science meets people analytics at scale? Pinterest's People Analytics team analyzed 30,000+ employee comments securely, inside the Snowflake AI Data Cloud without moving sensitive data outside their governed environment. As Trevor Fry put it, Posit Workbench in Snowflake unlocked new levels of efficiency while reinforcing their commitment to secure, scalable data practices. This is exactly the kind of work we'll be talking about at Snowflake Summit. Come find us at Booth #2804. ➡ Read the full Pinterest story: https://lnkd.in/gi9ahmZ9 🚀 Meet our team at Snowflake Summit: https://lnkd.in/g45xJGnd Snowflake Partner Network #SnowflakeSummit #DataScience #Posit #SnowflakeAIDataCloud

Agentic AI is not a future trend. It's happening now, and the stack you build today will define your results tomorrow. 🚀 We're joining Snowflake for "AI in Action: Architect the Agentic Tech Stack" on May 27, alongside leading data and AI partners. Posit's Nick Pelikan will demo live how Posit tools run natively inside Snowflake, including how to create predictive models with agent tool calls using Snowflake Cortex, and how the Orbital package translates R and Python models into native Snowflake. Learn how one team cut their model pipeline from over two hours to 24 seconds! ⚡ You'll also get practical tips to build a modern agentic tech stack that connects your data, decision intelligence, and user interfaces into AI-driven solutions.

Announcing Quarto 1.9: Enhanced Typst Support for Books and Article Layouts Quarto 1.9 introduces significant updates to our integration with Typst, the high-performance typesetting system designed as a modern alternative to LaTeX! • You can now render a project of `type: book` using the Typst format. This includes full support for parts, chapters, appendices, and automated cross-referencing, all within a lightning-fast rendering pipeline. • All Quarto article layout features are now functional in Typst via the Marginalia package. This includes placing figures, tables, code listings, and citations in the document margins to create clean, readable, and professional layouts. • Quarto 1.9 introduces typst-gather to improve reliability in restricted or offline environments. This tool bundles and caches necessary Typst packages locally, ensuring your documents render consistently without requiring active network access. • The new default Typst book uses the orange-book extension, which supports brand.yml. This allows you to automatically apply your organization's primary colors and logos to your publications. Learn more about Quarto 1.9 and the new Typst capabilities: https://lnkd.in/gv7sgBAm
