I take it the new #PowerBI "Sentence Template" tooltip syntax doesn't work on Table or Matrix visuals?
Um. There is no stable government. This coalition is over in everything but name. If someone is only keeping their job so you hold onto power that's not stable government. Snap election now.
My entire family just did a political party alignment check using whichparty but none of us know anything about it.
if firing a geriatric old racist means the government will fall, then it doesn't deserve to stand #nzpol

Now I am become AI, the creator of slop.
I'm building a #PowerBI report that helps the team drill into pay variances. It's just a (nice looking) Matrix with Slicers down the left, with clever CF. Just got off a call with the lead where I made lots of changes in real-time to her feedback. She is thrilled. Why do we need "Faster AI"?
I know these take up a bit of space, Honey…but on a related note you *did say* I could have one more pair of speakers in the lounge ‘provided they were tiny’ didn’t you?
c0nc0rdance@c0nc0rdance.bsky.social · 3d agoLet's explore a specific moment in time: BEFORE radar was invented (~1939) but AFTER airplanes entered warfare (1911). The best way to detect an airplane sneaking up on your border or coastline is with one of these absolutely ridiculous-looking devices. This is a "two horn acoustic locator", 1921.
When you bring an aluminium smelter into the system to take advantage of cheap power, it works when power is cheap, and stops when power is expensive; this way, it functions as a minimum price guarantee for power producers, which makes various renewable projects viable...
Keith Ng@keithng.bsky.social · 5d agoThe constant load part is a big deal - they compete for power when the wind isn't blowing, they compete for power during peak usage. They are not a good fit for a renewable-centric grid.

This one made me laugh for real.
We probably should concentrate on stopping the cause of wildfires rather than ship another LLM model…

Interesting #PowerQuery learning today...if using the ?? Coalesce operator when subtracting two columns that may hold nulls, you DO NOT want to do this as per screenshot output: = Table.AddColumn(#"Reordered Columns1", "Variance", each [Component Amount]??0 - [Prev Amount]??0)

Choosing something to watch with your sigot is a hilarious experience. 'I want to watch a comedy.' No No No No Not that No No No *Hands the remote over* 2 minutes later we're watching the popular comedy 12 Monkeys.
TL;DR “Where’s my umbrella?” “Why aren’t you singing?” “A *what* wedding?”
Oh cool…it’s the exact name I voted for in the national online poll! I’m gonna have a pint of Beery McBeerface to celebrate.
