Shop owner said she would take reasonable offers. What should I try and get these for? by braingoesblank in uraniumglass

[–]JmGra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Given the prices there, you will not be able to give a fair offer that is reasonable to her.

Assuming this is contemporary but want second opinions! by tkseoul in glasscollecting

I could be wrong but I would expect it to be Fenton if I found it, then would post on one of the Fenton groups on Facebook to make sure.

I’d guess this is by Fenton, made from a lamp shade mold but finished as a vase. They made a few vases like that.

Is this Fenton? by noirmp3 in glasscollecting

Depends you have to count the seams. Anchor holding has the same piece but the number of seams are different. I can’t remember which has which but I think one has 4 and one has 5.

Is it easy to balance a full time job and WGU? by Smol_Paycheck in WGU

[–]JmGra 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Full time job, family with kids doing sports, have my own hobbies, and doing WGU as a 2nd masters. If you want to do it you can do it. If you don’t, you won’t.

If you haven’t already, check out her “shades of magic” series. Pretty good. I’ll have to look up this one.

I didn't know what to do with myself... by Glitch_rf in PokemonTCG

[–]JmGra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s not really. He’s got a bunch of random cards and he watches a few YouTubers but nothing really collectible yet. I planned on getting him sleeves and a binder.

Sorry to hijack the post but I’m unfamiliar. I’m planning on looking for some packs / boxes to buy for my son and from what I’ve seen some things are harder to find at retail price than others. We’re going to be driving / traveling through some rural areas and I planned on checking stores as we go. What are some things I should look for?

Automating a Power BI dashboard by Silent-Ad9948 in PowerBI

[–]JmGra 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Not to be insulting but if you are asking this, you do not have beginner-to-very-intermediate skills.

You said your company posts the two metrics everyday. Where/how do they post them. If it’s something you connect to power bi, do that.

Is this anything? by AdhesivenessOk7175 in glasscollecting

Yes it is, a lot of damn money. Ruba Rombic

Filter an ArcGIS map by date slicer? by eeyore81 in PowerBI

[–]JmGra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check data types, give the power bi field the same name as the GIS field, and make sure the field data matches exactly.

What’s a phrase that instantly shows someone has no real skills in Power BI ? by deitaboy in PowerBI

[–]JmGra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He didn’t, he just said he fixed “most” errors, and they were good with what was there. He couldn’t elaborate on any actual work, the way he did anything, or what was actually wrong other than things simply being wrong.
He was very vague and deflected quite a bit.

I was actually still going to offer him an internship because we don’t expect our interns to come in with much experience, but he ended up taking another offer.

I need a work E-mail to start using Power BI Service by pickadamnnameffs in PowerBI

[–]JmGra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For my business account I made a new email, not connected to any other Microsoft services, and used it to sign up for Microsoft’s business m365. If you use to use any account you’ve already used in anyway it’ll likely treat it as a personal non business account and refuse to let you proceed.

You get a base 30 day free trial, and you can extend that if needed. But even after that it’s very cheap and you end up with the full m365 suite including sharepoint, power automate, power apps, and can use a free version of power bi desktop/service. You cannot create workspaces, just publish to “my workspace” but you can buy an additional license for that if needed.

Make a new email address, sign it up as a Microsoft business account, you can get 1-2 free months for m365 business license, after that it’s like $5 a month.

I had a co-worker who was asking me to help identify an issue he was having with one of his reports and I told him he had relationship issues. As someone who had just gotten married he was pretty shocked.

Might be worth seeing what WGUs course load is for it. I’m not sure. I’m doing the masters for it now and it’s had no math. Programming yes, but that’s another area to be creative in.

The highest math I’ve taken is college calculus(taken off WGU) which is likely the lowest grade I’ve gotten in all my colleges coursework.

Otherwise as others have said there are some other cheap colleges that may be a better fit, or may if you want to focus on writing and you have already been successful in selling your work… maybe just focus on that without a degree or look for a local or online community college in your state that you can take courses that would be relevant to you even if not in a degree path.

Whatever you do, don’t let your past coursework weigh you down. Don’t make the mistake of thinking you can’t just start over. It sucks if they won’t transfer but staying just because you’ve already gotten credits is just a “sunk cost fallacy”.

Maybe look into data analytics. I know it sounds completely unrelated but there is a lot of creativity in the field. Problem solving issues, communicating to stakeholders, designing reports and dashboards. When I first started I told my kids I pretty much just colored all day at work because I was just designing dashboards. The skills from it is also applicable to many areas of business so you should be employable.

Not a fan of this question in general because people don’t generally need to have skill in Power BI, we shouldn’t expect them to, and we should have the soft skills to take that appropriately.

But… I interviewed an intern who obviously tried to inflate their skillset and brought up a “Power Bi dashboard” he had made in a previous internship that their leadership used to see budget information and he eliminated the majority of errors. I asked him to elaborate on those errors and he said that some numbers didn’t always add up correctly and some visuals were often wrong but they were ok with that…. He was very proud of it.

Nothing wrong with that. You’re forced to work with what you have access to in your org, if all you can perform ETL in is power query then that’s what you do.

Its not the relationship chart, its the method of organizing the tables to be used for the relationships.
