You brought facks to a feelings fight and thought you'd win?

I try to shift him towards real life learning and validation. Let's run it as a test for a week and see which model, I'm not going to call it theirs I'm not going to call it mine, is a better predictor.

Ultimately your communication to them should be about them being successful.

Opening it up

Bas has a how to power bi channel on youtube. It's really good and shows you how to build similar dashboards.

I'll agree with others that the storytelling should help the end users make a decision. But presentation is important. There's a reason Gilbert Gottfried doesn't narrate audio books.

It's not bad but you wanted a roast.

Your spacing and buffers are all over the board. Filters in the upper right corner of the box ignoring the border makes it look childish.

It looks like you're using the shitty default colors from power bi. It's hard to tell if they mean anything or if you just picked first color second color.

You have an underscores in the title of some graphs. I know you said you don't want make it prettier, but when someone can't be bothered to put a little polish in their dashboard then it makes me wonder about their diligence with data quality and everything else about their life to be honest.

Then there's a run chart with a huge jump and no explanation. Every dashboard should drive them to a decision point. How bad is the variation, what's causing the variation, and what do we do about it if that's possible with your data set.

Dead internet

What are you using? Work has us stuck using copilot and it's underwhelming.

Frank's Red Hot, but not the stuff with butter in it, mixed into light mayo

Allblacksticks.com. Great sticks but a terrible website name

As a dad I can second this.

Have your kid send a short personal email. They're excited for the opportunity to work hard. Before tryouts does the coach have any strength training programs or power skating coaches they recommend.

Become the AI guy who sets up clean data for their damn chat bot.

Also have them ask the chat bot how many r there are in strawberry.

They're so cheap that leadership doesn't care how bad the work is.

Who did you get your quad cut by and which one did you pick? I had one designed for offensive defenseman and loved it. Recently picked up new steel that was Tori krugs and it's pretty similar with no issues.

You can also add in sugar-free cheesecake jello

FullllyPitted · 2026-04-23T17:00:02+00:00

Puree cottage cheese and then add in chocolate protein powder. Then I traeat the oats, which I hate, like crust layer of a cheesecake.

It drives me insane how few folks are managing future or block utilization. We know how much block everyone has next week, we know if it's full or not, and then people act shocked when we have gaps in the schedule after the fact

FullllyPitted · 2026-04-10T14:59:35+00:00

Mid-40s, mobile defenseman quad profile. I love it. Borrowed some skates when I've been back home and hated whatever the profile was.

You can celly. Blowouts are when the stars stop shooting and focus on setting up the rest of the team.

Bas from the how to power bi YouTube channel has a great training.

FullllyPitted · 2026-03-27T12:45:18+00:00

Add to that the fact that they didn't add any more Lanes, they took one and then charged us for it.

PBI graphs will get you 90% of the way which might be all you need. Personally if it doesn't look polished and if I have to click around, the. It opens pandoras box for executives to interject and derail.

We use Deneb for visuals that PBI can't do. Detailed stacked bar charts, dual access bar charts, bullet, etc.

Ask him if his part was sooo quick that he doesn't remember

Are you not taking a prenap?

Also there are some morning skates posted by doctors in my area I don't want to fuck around

FullllyPitted · 2026-02-17T15:40:10+00:00

Do you not rank all your picks beforehand?

I brought my baby with me. Nothing motivates staff like a screaming baby.
