I’ve got some free time this afternoon - let’s do a quick Q&A. Share your questions below, and I’ll answer as many as I can.

The theme of the rest of this decade is going to be “I didn’t fuck around, why am I finding out?”

It’s fun starting a new hobby with ADHD because I never know if I’ve found a new lifelong passion or if I’m going to spend $2000 on stuff and immediately lose all interest

"This category was introduced in 1989. And two women have won...THREE WOMEN HAVE WON." We're not crying, you're crying at Doechii's Best Rap Album #Grammy win

Doechii joins Cardi B and Lauryn Hill as the only women in #GRAMMYs  history to win Best Rap Album.

I was led to believe by R.E.M. that I would feel a lot better about this.

BREAKING: The Los Angeles Lakers have acquired Luka Doncic, sources confirm to The Athletic.

LA is sending Anthony Davis, Max Christie and a 2029 first-round pick to the Mavericks for Doncic, Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris in a three-team deal involving the Jazz.

you know who should be inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame? Sisyphus

I was OK alright that’s interesting on that line and the “introduce them to the light” one… and then 😬 😯 on the “hit them STRICTLY with that fire” line

Kumbaya? NAH

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.

They run them bc people react to them the most.

If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

Learn Apache Spark in Fabric in 30 days - YouTube

This is by far the clearest introduction and tutorial video series I’ve seen for Spark in Fabric. Provides some context but a lot of practical step by step.

Been super helpful for people on our team whose primary experience had been SQL/Data Factory/Power BI.

I have a few of those downloads - really appreciate your efforts with it 🙏! Incredibly useful being able to automate formatted Excel reports with PoweShell

Welcome @python.org! It feels like this place is real now. #Python

Hi from the void! 😂 I definitely appreciate any and all documentation, especially when it's official. I'm sure I've read data tools docs you've written. HUGE when I find a nugget that helps prevent/relieve hours of headbanging trying to figure something out

Use Python experience on Notebook - Microsoft Fabric Learn how to work with pure Python notebooks for data exploration, visualization, and machine learning.

#MicrosoftFabric "pure" Python (no Spark) notebooks are now available!

Uses less resources vs Spark notebooks for smaller (but not trivial) data workloads using other libs - deltalake, duckdb, ibis, etc - but also anything written in Python, data related or not

Nix doesn't have a docs problem it has a discovery problem!

Excel mirroring in #MicrosoftFabric 👀

Fun way to start a Monday watching this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlWE...

The only person who probably hates Kendrick more than Drake rn is every Wienerschnitzel employee in LA.

Appreciate the video and step through! Helpful seeing end to end the read and write of Iceberg tables in Fabric. Also liked the comments re: what Daft provides and the Power BI considerations (or lack thereof - it’s really about the parquet files!)

I do the same 😂 - didn’t even notice 👍

Looking forward to the blog!

Trying to find time to play with notebook in org apps. The current, and future, possibilities are real interesting.

I’ve used things like Streamlit and evidence in the past - nice to have something like them out of the box in Fabric, w/o managing a separate deployment

I also love that Kendrick named the song luther because I don’t care what else he named it, I was gonna call it luther anyway.

Hits so good 2AM on
