❤️ @lovable.dev now integrates with Databricks, providing a natural language interface that allows anyone, regardless of technical skills, to build live applications that can read and write data stored in Databricks.

See how teams can build dashboards, operational tools, internal chatbots, and other custom apps directly on governed Databricks data without ETL, replication, or sync jobs.

Databases are shifting from being designed for humans to being designed for AI agents.

Traditional databases take time to provision, configure, and duplicate for testing. That works when a human sets up a database occasionally. But AI agents operate at machine speed.

Lakebase changes the architecture by separating compute from storage, so compute can spin up instantly without copying or moving data. With database branching, agents can create isolated environments in seconds, experiment safely, and roll back instantly.

My first AWS re:Invent is a wrap 🥰

I literally found out 3 days before the event that I’d be going back to Baegas after being there all week for F1 🏎️.

I realized that now being a creator / founder, momentum is EVERYTHING.

I could stay curled up at home or I can be at the forefront of AI x Tech, make quality connections with the world’s greatest brands / creators, and be the best champion for @nvidia who trusted me enough to sponsor me 😭 (thank you @amyanjolie).

It’s actually kind of wild how quickly the AI ecosystem is evolving.

So exciting to see how we’re democratizing access to AI and best-in-class tech for everyone — from startups to governments to Fortune 500s.

Already excited for next year! 🥹 @awsreinvent

Steps here👇the game has completely changed since 2022 - it’s not just leetcode anymore.

Here’s what @viktoria.semaan shared that actually worked:

✅ Actually USE the platform (yes, she had to learn Databricks + Spark from scratch)
✅ Nail the coding assignment without ChatGPT crutches
✅ Come with CLEAR impact stories for leadership rounds
✅ Do your homework on every interviewer (LinkedIn stalking is real prep 😅)

The technical bar is higher, but the human connection piece is everything. When you can tie your stories to their experience and show genuine interest in their work - that’s when you stand out.

2025 interviews hit different. Preparation is everything 💪

Happy International Women’s Day! (dumpy)👉💕 Shout-out to all you amazing women👩‍💻 You inspire me everyday!

I’m spending it with @jess Portugal! (I’ve seen her in a different place each month for the last 4 months 😅)

Here’s a photo dumpy with many incredible women in tech. I am feeling very blessed to have met so many cool women in tech (even just here on Insta) 🙌

I'm constantly in awe of how women lift each other up in every field - from tech to medicine, arts to engineering, business to education.

For anyone who's ever felt like they don't belong in their field or that they have to change who they are to fit in - please know that your authentic self is your superpower!

You don't need to choose between being feminine and being taken seriously. You can be exactly who you are👏

P.S. I wish I could tag every incredible woman in my life, but Instagram doesn’t allow me (rude, lol) 😅 Just know I see you, appreciate you, and am cheering you on!

Here's to women everywhere - past, present and future - who dare to dream, lead, and change the world! 💖 #IWD2025

I’ve made every single woman in my life listen to this podcast by Leila Hormozi.

“10 Brutal Truths about being a Woman in Business.”

It completely changed my perspective about working as a woman in a male dominated industry.

Find and replace the word ‘business’ with ‘technology’.

My favorite truth?

Being underestimated is always better than being properly estimated.

In Sun Tzu’s Art of War - there is no greater danger than underestimating your opponent.

Many women get upset when men underestimate them...

but do you really want to be properly estimated?

Working in a male dominated field, you can use the fact that people underestimate you to your ADVANTAGE.

and happy Women in STEM day 🫶🏼

P.S. is there a podcast episode that changed your life??

Happy Women in Stem Day! (dumpy)👉💕 Shout-out to all you amazing women👩‍💻 You inspire me everyday! Here are 20 random photos of some of my fav women in stem that I met here on Insta!

I am feeling very blessed to have met so many cool women in tech (at events, IRL, here on Insta, and everywhere) 🙌

It took me a long time to feel comfortable being feminine, or just being myself in the tech world... I hope that if anyone reading this feels like that, you know that you can reach out to any woman in tech and we will support you. You can be feminine in tech. In fact, you can be whatever you want! 😊

It’s so lovely to see so many women supporting each other IRL and online 🥰 and generally EVERYONE supporting each other 🙌

P.S. sorry I can only tag 20 people & post 20 photos but there are a million more I wish I could 🥹😅

I’m so grateful for all the amazing women I’ve met through this community, and ofc I’m so thankful for ALL of you 💖

Have a great week friends! 🥳
