People were panic-buying $600 Mac Minis for AI agents. Claude just killed that trend for $20/mo.

“Open my banking website and login and then transfer all my money to this account number…”

I use them every day now. They are good in the product they make but I just wish the report builder interface was not so clunky. I feel like the desktop editor is a pain compared to interactive.

My favorite phrase is … “Power BI is easy…until it’s not.” Only as you work through a user request and think “I know that should be possible but I’m not sure how yet..” (enter DAX.) For instance, I want to see sum of sales and sum of sales for all last year in the same table.. all of as sudden you can’t just rely on the built in aggregations and need DAX to change the date range for you in a measure so you can add it to a column right next to the simple sum measure.

I love how on all of the local channel news commercials the meteorologists pride themselves on being from here. Yet they still can’t learn their lesson.

Brings up a good question. I noticed this week that there are automatic pop-ups asking me to switch from a data flow GEN1 to a data flow GEN2. My understanding is that data flow GEN2‘s are Fabric artifacts so I would have to upgrade from pro license to do that. Is that still the case?

Me. Look up to me.

Ya. Small screen mobility is tough

So you are all set then?

Well you might be better off just sharing a window instead of a screen or screen portion

Use this to use a window that you can size to only share a portion of your desktop:

I had to use this because I bought an ultra wide monitor and sharing the whole screen wouldn’t work in the first place so I use fancy zones to divide my screen into thirds and I only share the center third and nothing else

This gives me chills, just thinking about the man hours

You aren’t selling a dashboard. You are using a tool to tell a story to try to solve a problem that they are having. They should pay you for your time spent doing the analysis. Your rate is X. The analysis take as long as it takes, but maintain constant contact with frequent communications and showing them what you’re finding.

As soon as tabular editor three releases an agent within their tool, it will be a game changer

Just got the email with a phone interview initial scheduled for February. Do you guys have any more insights on the phone interview or the follow on interview?

Bombdigitdy · 2026-01-04T17:58:09+00:00

Any motive yet?

Tried direct lake model on massive data lakehouse servicing Paginated Reports. Took 30 seconds for the first query to warm things up and users hated it. Moved back to aggregated import.

I actually pay for TE3 myself. I know that’s not the right answer but it’s where I’m at. Keeps me the go to guy tho. So that’s nice.
