          • AI not very reliable.
        • 48:30 Dashboard has toggle to hide/show filters
        • 1:06:51 I know that they may have like a modeling language. And I can see that other tools having their own query language or modeling language, is something that you intend somehow to release as open source stuff or what’s the vision? I want you to have the vision behind that, the AQL, AML, and so on, and how it relates, if something could be also translated from some other modeling language. Big language.
        • 1:10:42 Customize theme for BuyCo
        • 1:21:30 No, just, just, I was also wondering the, some of the examples you’ve shown there, is it something that we could get inspired if we have like, like, like kind of a sample project somehow, could we have access to some such a software to get inspired and to say, okay, the best practice is to shape the AML this way, the AQL this way, the model this way, and the dashboard also. I don’t know. I guess it could help us to get inspired without having to ask questions all the time.
    • Treat this as higher priority as per anh Huy’s words: “This is an active prospect that’s evaluating us (they do like us so high chance of conversion), so please work with some urgency”

    • [[Trip - Bàu Sấu 04/2026]]
    • I was sick and travelling the whole week, so no significant progress this week in work.
    • Instead, I have time to rest and mentally heal. That is good after a while of working hard.
    • Next week: some soft working on monday, tuesday, wednesday and rest/play game on thursday/friday.
    • Thursday/friday is public holiday in Vietnam (30/4 and 1/5).
    • Google One downgrade note: not to downgrade because Linh and my younger brother still use.

    • NOTE Migrate from 1Long to another place to save money. I don’t think 1Long is reliable anymore to save emergency money.

    • I was sick 2 days ago, I felt tired from monday, extend till wednesday I have to leave the entire day to rest.

      • The cause comes from playing game for too late I think. Until my body can’t handle it and catch a cold.
      • Today is thursday, still feel not at my best right now, but a little better.
      • LEARNING Do not play at night after 6PM, because I will eventually play for all night. Just in the morning/early afternoon.

    • Ask for no, don’t ask for yes

      • “Don’t. Don’t ask for a yes. Instead, offer a chance to say no, but with a deadline.”
        • At the moment reading this line, I was thinking if I was the boss, what would I think. Probably I need to understand the what, then the why.
        • In short, instead of saying: “hey, boss, can we install action X? It will help with the XYZ problems we’ve been having”.
        • Say: “hey, boss, I am going to install action X, which could solve the XYZ problems we’re been having. Will take care of this on Monday unless I hear differently from you”.
        • I think it’s up to the tone. But I think it’s the communication skill to talk with which person and adjust the tone, as well as what they really want to know.
        • For example, the boss want to know if it’s a big problem or not, if the big problem cause any unexpected issue or not, etc.
        • Saying that let me make progress without waiting for boss review, but also I take responsibility if not frame the problem and solve well.
        • Anyway, worth reading.
      • https://www.mooreds.com/wordpress/archives/category/tips
        • This blog is fun and mindful to read, especially the tips. Really easy to understand, as well as informative.
        • The tone seems like a senior engineer teaches small tips that I can’t find if just leaning on LLM searches.
        • I think need to find more blogs myself rather than just relying on LLM searches in logseq.

  • Notes

    • NOTE Typically in dbt, when we want to deprecate a model, should we remove dbt .sql file and the underlying table entirely or just dbt model, keep table?
      • Asked in Ampcode:
        • Phase 1: deprecate in code.
        • Phase 2: remove the .sql file.
        • Phase 3: drop the table.
      • Why not skip straight to dropping? In our setup, AML models reference BQ tables by physical name. If you remove .sql file, dbt stops refreshing the table but it still exists with stale data, which is actually worse than dropping it, because consumers silently get stale results.
      • So either keep the wrapper alive or drop the table entirely. Don’t leave in the middle.
    • NOTE Prioritization: enterprise customers are considered higher, need to treat them carefully.
    • Seems I don’t use the Gemini chat bot anymore. Plan to downgrade the Google One?
    • My AI Adoption Journey
      • “I quickly discovered for myself from first principles what others were already saying, but discovering it myself resulted in a stronger fundamental understanding.”
        • That’s correct. And applies for everything. Learn it yourself result in your own understanding.
        • That relates to many people find more interesting reading books instead of watching transfered movies.
      • “Very important at this stage: TURN OFF DESKTOP NOTIFICATION. Context switching is expensive”
        • That’s correct. From my experience working with many projects at the same time, context switching is the most time wasting and could lead to my headache more frequently.
      • New term: Harness Engineering

        • AI is like a horse. It’s strong. Has power to transport things. But without harness, it does not achieve the best effectiveness.
        • Harness Engineering in AI means design the better feedback loop so that the AI knows it’s wrong.
        • The idea is that anytime you find an agent makes a mistake, you take the time to engineer the solution the the agent never makes that mistake again.
        • The simplest form of this is adding rules into AGENTS.md, that said, I’m already know about this fact, and actively improving this (logseq automation).
      • The author: Mitchell Hashimoto
        • He is co-founder of HashiCorp, one of the known Infrastructure as Code - Terraform.
        • Pretty well-known.
        • He created Ghostty as a side project. Pretty well-known terminal emulator (similar to Alacritty which I use).
