*Topics*

   - *Snowpark ML Toolkit and dbt Python Models*
   By: Felipe Hoffa, Developer Advocate
   In this session we will perform a full exploration of the Snowpark ML
   Toolkit using dbt Python models on the dbt Cloud without any package
   installation. You will learn how Snowflake improves on familiar ML
   libraries like Scikit-Learn and XGBoost to make them scale within its
   scalable runtime.

   During this session you will:
   - Start with 50,000 rows and scale to 50 million rows on various data
      transformations with the toolkit
      - Train and predict a dbt Python model with XGBoost
      - Switch between SQL and Python transformations in a pipeline where
      dbt takes care of the boilerplate code when pushing to Snowflake

   - *Paywalls, Beautiful Soup, and reading what was sent to you*
   By: Phil Robare
   The paywall at Wired.com, TheAtlantic.com and other websites implement a
   paywall with javascript.  The source page that is sent has the entire
   article.  This talk is about the use of the BeautifulSoup package (which
   manipulates HTML documents) to read what the web site sends.
