What started as a straightforward implementation guide for a declarative data stack quickly evolved into something more fundamental. While attempting to build a system that could define an entire data stack through a single YAML file, I encountered architectural questions that challenged my initial assumptions:
Stop Drowning In AI Information Overload
Your inbox is flooded with newsletters. Your feed is chaos. Somewhere in that noise are the insights that could transform your work—but who has time to find them?
The Deep View solves this. We read everything, analyze what matters, and deliver only the intelligence you need. No duplicate stories, no filler content, no wasted time. Just the essential AI developments that impact your industry, explained clearly and concisely.
Replace hours of scattered reading with five focused minutes. While others scramble to keep up, you'll stay ahead of developments that matter. 600,000+ professionals at top companies have already made this switch.
Cloud technology keeps growing faster than anyone expected. Businesses rely on it for everything—from storing data to running daily operations. But as companies move more systems online, security concerns grow too. Hackers are more skilled, threats are more complex, and protecting sensitive data has become a major challenge.
Muon optimization has become one of the hottest topic in current AI landscape following its recent successes in NanoGPT speed run and more recently MuonClip usage in Kimi K2. However, on first look, it’s really hard to pinpoint the connection of orthogonalization, newton-schulz, and all its associated concepts with optimization…
In this tutorial, we introduce the core idea behind piecewise regression and show how it can be used to model trend change points in a time series. We begin by fitting a simple linear trend model, demonstrate why it fails in the presence of a change point, and then show how adding knot-based features enables the model to capture multiple trend regimes
Before I learned about TabPFN and similar approaches, I lacked the fantasy of how one would pre-train a machine learning model on tabular data. In this post, we’ll dive into the basic thinking behind pre-training for so-called prior-data fitted networks, which underlie TabPFN and many other tabular foundation models (TFMs)…

AI News:
Google just announced a wave of AI upgrades and Gemini integrations into its Chrome browser, including the addition of agentic browsing, built-in image generation, Personal Intelligence, and more. Auto Browse controls Chrome in its own tab, clicking through sites and completing tasks— also pausing before sensitive actions like payments.

Tesla entered into an agreement on January 16 to invest in xAI's Series E funding round. SpaceX also invested $2 billion in xAI. Tesla will end production for its Model S and Model X higher-end vehicles, as they have seen sluggish sales compared with other models.
YouTube has removed two of the most popular AI-generated content channels on its platform, signaling a crackdown on low-quality synthetic media. CuentosFacianantes, which had 5.9M subscribers and over 1.2B total views, and Imperio de Jesus, with 5.8M subscribers, are no longer available.
Google DeepMind has released ATLAS, a research framework that provides the first publicly available scaling laws for multilingual AI models, based on 774 training runs across models ranging from 10M to 8B parameters. The study, spanning 400+ languages and 48 evaluation languages, quantifies how training on one language helps or hurts another
A bug report on the Chromium Issue Tracker has inadvertently leaked the Android desktop interface. The bug report, which was about Chrome Incognito tabs, was accompanied by two screen captures. They show a taller status bar compared to tablets, a Chrome interface that mostly aligns with the current large-screen Android version, and mostly unchanged desktop windowing.
