Pulling up my Power BI socks for the last time. After nearly 20 years at Microsoft, I’m starting a new chapter. My final #PowerBI contribution ships in March. Grateful for this amazing communityβ€”42 reminders of how special you are. More soon!

I am just glad you are enjoying yourself!

I asked AI and it told me the total "sports all" is under 18 minutes if you strip off all the fluf. Boggles the European mind why this is even remotely acceptable.

It really is weird to me. Those vacation days are yours. They are your right to use as you see fit.

I know. Also, please don't generalize all of Europe. Each country / region has a very particular set of "rules"

3 weeks is the right amount. You need a week to decompress, a week to enjoy and a week to recompress

We just shake our heads in disbelief while we go home and don't hustle.

Maybe it is, I know it took us a long time write interpreters πŸ˜‚

DAX.do by SQLBI

Right but... To it's trained on docs that are often not up to date, incorrect and have messy examples. Don't get me wrong, I am impressed with what you do here but I would prefer the route where there is an actual AS server hosting a model like dax.do

But how? There must be an as instance somewhere

I "parked", which is basically the same as deleting without letting go of the username.

Boycott Twitter. Right now. Stop hiding behind the excuse "That's where my customers/followers are". Tell them you're leaving Twitter. Tell them why. And if they won't follow you, you don't need them. Stand up for something.

Lose config? That's weird? I am deep into it and love it, but selling the house so need to rip everything out. Hopefully labeling it properly so I can put it back in place in a new house..

Do you not feel free in your smart home?

I am not replacing electricity with pull wires πŸ˜‚

My house is pretty dumb even with the smart stuff.

What do you call it if you are removing all your smart home stuff? Stupifying? Lobotomy? What do you think?

Got it. Thanks for the feedback!

Ah, interesting. Ctrl-Z is not enough? We always treated resizing a column as a "stop trying to be smart, I know what I am doing" signal.
