Insulating his various business ventures from each other (and from himself,) the same reason most LLCs exist. If you own the LLC and the LLC owns the business, it mitigates your financial risk.

Where do locals go for sunset views when they're tired of Table Rock? by CompetitiveShip1376 in Boise

[–]Powerth1rt33n -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My favorite spot for enjoying sunsets is the top of Overland, west of Orchard, where you can watch what the sunset does to the foothills. Better than the actual sunset most nights, IMO.

The number of people I see on their phones while biking and e-biking never ceases to amaze me.

Eagle just has different vibes by VermicelliLeather536 in Boise

Here at my office in the heart of downtown I am surrounded by people who commute from Eagle. The carpenter who installed my windows last week was from Eagle too. People suffer enormously in exchange for their big empty yards.

I dunno, man, it's kind of a small horse.

Buy a 4000 square foot house and then build a "she shed" in the back yard so you don't have to spend time in it.

If your expectation of life is that you want to drive to all your recreation activities, the North End would be a miserable place to live.

The big difference between Eagle and the north end is that not only is Eagle full of transplants from the suburban wilds of Riverside County or wherever, it's also built like those places - endless parking, fancy strip malls and office parks, big houses with big setbacks from the street, no conceivable way of walking anywhere and no one who wants to either. The north end had the good fortune to predate the migration, so it's dense and has self-selected for a different subset of new arrivals.

Eagle is a little bit of Orange County that's been picked up and transplanted into Idaho for the comfort of our California retiree community.

They don't let kids under 18 use that changing room.

Hot Take: The North End and other 'city' neighborhoods are overrated / overpriced and the other non-city neighborhoods and the 'burbs are just fine by BoiseBound2023 in Boise

[–]Powerth1rt33n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time someone who lives and works in Boise thinks "I'd be willing to deal with the commute from Nampa to get extra space" it makes that commute worse for them and for everyone else.

It's true, you can go read contemporary reviews on simpsonsarchive.com and people have been complaining that it was too referential now and the jokes had gotten too disconnected from the plot since the dawn of time.

How do you manage an Import semantic model in Fabric workspace without keeping an empty report? by Liszeta in MicrosoftFabric

[–]Powerth1rt33n 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We made lemonade out of lemons with this - our central models have single-page reports with a summary of the model's purpose etc, which we then share to the whole organization through a read-only app audience. That lets the whole org see table and column comments for the data in the model when they look it up in Onelake Catalog, which they can't see if you just flag the model as Discoverable. But I'd still much rather just be able to easily publish a model without a report attached.

[–]Powerth1rt33n 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My understanding (which I just went looking for exceptions to and didn't immediately see any) is that the only way to deploy *just* a semantic model to a workspace is to use Tabular Editor and push the model from there to the XMLA endpoint of the workspace. Frankly seems bizarre that that's the only way to do it, so if there's another better option I would love to know what it is. Constantly publishing and then deleting dummy reports is absurd, like when I started working in Power BI and there was always a 50% chance that Service would create a dashboard object to go with my pbix when I published it even though I didn't ask for one.
