I’ll check out your DM. There isn’t really a tech deaf/hoh “physical” community per se but we have a virtual one on Slack (gated to just deaf/hoh folks tho!). But there’s definitely some good resources up at NTID in Rochester (alumnus here!)

Hey, this is great! 🖖 Thanks for reaching out. I know about Open Data Week and have always wanted to check it out. My partner, who is deaf too, is a data manager at NYC DOHMH. Can I put you two in touch? And I want to learn more about @beta.nyc too. It looks so fun

Agreed! And goes back to your original point which is …. it’s a bad naming scheme 🤪 down with medallion

That’s what the graphic says but the description at the bottom of the graphic implies there’s no data manipulation happening, it’s a landing zone. The text @ databricks.com/glossary/med... says bronze is “as-is” source data basically

Some clients have interpreted bronze to mean raw source data too
What is a Medallion Architecture?
A medallion architecture is a data design pattern used to logically organize data in a lakehouse, with the goal of improving the structure and quality of data.

But also! I really thought bronze was intended by whoever came up w Medallion to represent raw _untouched_ data

We’ve been talking a lot about this at work lately too! One good idea I heard — “staging” as a data model layer is confusing (due to staging envs, staging dbs, etc) and suggested “sources” for the layer where you import raw data and do light cleanup

"partly the need to be for others what I needed" isn't an awful reason imo - it's a good motive to want to build a better environment for your reports than the environment you had/needed

Chiming in to say I think those silly triangular cocktail glasses shouldn’t be a thing anymore! 🚫🍸 Can we start serving martinis in regular whiskey or highball glasses instead 🥃 🍹 and stop spilling it all over the place?
