@tpnRel1 Worse than this, they don't all treat the clocks going back the same way. I had an automation set with Power BI updating automatically 30 mins before Power Automate and Automate went back and BI didn't messing it all up.

@HowToPowerBI Thanks. This seems potentially really useful

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@SQLGene @SQLGene - sorry, just realised this didn't actually send. I've resent it.

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@SQLGene DM'd you

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@wynhopkins Thanks Wyn, I've been thinking of shifting over there – it's not like I've got a huge following here that I'll lose if I switch!

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@HowToPowerBI Hi, I was hoping to see the bit where you rounded the tops of the columns. Is that a different video?

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@wynhopkins I've been off Twitter for a month and just came back to this – a great reminder of what I've been missing – thanks!

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

Really enjoying @UnpivotShow podcast at the moment with @wynhopkins, @sue_bayes & @exceloffthegrid. Good range of content (both breadth & depth – some stuff is beyond my but plenty isn't), lots of learning & hilariously geeky at times (❤️the jingles)

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@wynhopkins Done

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@HowToPowerBI I accidentally closed a pbix I was working on, so re-opened if and in the interim they'd updated it!

@B66Paul Probably the Business Value Hat

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

I really like @joeglines's "6 Hats to Wear When Working with Programming" here:
Business Value Hat
User Experience Hat
Release Planning Hat
Minimum Viable Product Hat
The Debug Hat
The Optimization Hat

@eddierthomas @wynhopkins Thanks again for this @eddierthomas. I enjoyed the start of the first series of this but had forgotten about it mid-way through. Enjoyed this episode. Staggering

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@InsightsMachine @cwebb_bi Do you think this persists because Direct Query is seen as sexier? Because it's live data?

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@eddierthomas @wynhopkins Thanks going to check that out. I've been using Excel (& its forerunners) for so long "Tables" has always seemed a bit new-fangled to me so I've never really made the leap

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@wynhopkins Looks tidy. I'm not going to pretend I know how it works though!

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@wynhopkins I happened to be trying to do something similar this week & added extra line:
= #table({"Stage", "Count"}, {
{"FilterA",Table.RowCount(#"FilterA")},
{"FilterB",Table.RowCount(#"FilterB")},
{"FilterC",Table.RowCount(#"FilterC")}
})
Where FilterA etc = the name of each filter stage

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@InsightsMachine @AgulloBernat I want to say text boxes that fit perfectly, and then wait until you're not watching to gain a scroll bar and ∴ spilling onto the next line

[GoatShipMate @GoatShipMate]

@chandeep2786 Good tip! Thanks

@wynhopkins @UnpivotShow +1
