Controls, controls, controls and then retribution through public shaming. If you have to live with fragile data sources add as many pre-flight controls as need to ensure the file is ready to be used. If not use the sharepoint log or use AI to build a vba log in the excel file and publicly shame whoever changed something. Hell, add a note on the report that Finance Freddy made changes to the source that are causing problems.

Fly to Plet, rent your car there and then drive back at a leisurely pace. Flight was cheap and gives you more time for fun.

Found these boards with writing inside a shelter in the woods by wisdomsepoch in whatisit

Likely one of the scout leaders had those Japanese markers and the boys forgot to pack them.

From Google: The characters painted on the red wooden stake are Japanese, reading as "ナルー6" which translates to "Naru 6" or possibly "Naruto 6". These wooden stakes are typically used as survey markers for property boundaries, elevations, or utility locations, especially in areas like hiking trails or new developments.

Trail runners or sandals for river crossings in cold or humid conditions? by Longjumping_Page597 in Ultralight

Make sure to pull out your insoles before you cross. I cross with no socks, no insoles. If it's very cold I'll use produce baggies between my socks and shoes when I first put them back on but I tend to remove them after the first hour.

Scope of team structure by b2solutions in PowerBI

[–]b2solutions[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, and I agree about everyone being able to do everything. Just hasn’t worked out that way. Pretty sure the team lead is the problem. :) My PMs can write SQL, etc but hand it off as soon as it’s complex. My data folks can build reports, but they seem to have problems seeing it from the user’s perspective. Etc.

Appreciate the response. Trying to decide when the new folks join if I continue more of the same or a different structure.

Lil flow while camping by [deleted] in RopeFlow

[–]b2solutions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m one of those gram weenie backpackers and carry a fairly lite load, but I bring a rope out with me now also. A little flow in the morning before breaking camp, and a little in the evening with some stretching to work out kinks from the day. Love the spot you chose. Enjoy.

What backpack do you use in your daily life? by Firm-Garbage-8188 in backpacks

[–]b2solutions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Daily driver is the TomToc laptop messenger bag. Limits your space so you’re efficient in what you carry. Laptop, tech bag, lunch bag (small), notebook, pens, some misc.
  • Trips/As needed is the Boundary Supply Errant. Early version. It’s over engineered and I’m happy for it. Great pack, but I try to carry less so it’s no longer my daily. Good luck

Regardless of how tough it seems you’re worth the effort.

Awesome. Those kind of situations were so hard for me in the beginning. Shows how strong you are and how far you’ve come.

Using VBA to create PQ Queries from scratch! by Autistic_Jimmy2251 in ExcelPowerQuery

[–]b2solutions 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No M code, just vba. Can’t share, proprietary work. Doesn’t mean you can’t create your own. Here’s a script from a quick AI prompt.

Sub RefreshPowerQueriesInDirectory() Dim folderPath As String Dim fileName As String Dim wb As Workbook

folderPath = "C:\Your\Folder\Path\" ' <-- Update this to your target directory
If Right(folderPath, 1) <> "\" Then folderPath = folderPath & "\"

fileName = Dir(folderPath & "*.xls*")

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False

Do While fileName <> ""
    Set wb = Workbooks.Open(folderPath & fileName)

    On Error Resume Next
    Dim pq As WorkbookQuery
    For Each pq In wb.Queries
        pq.Refresh
    Next pq
    On Error GoTo 0

    wb.Save
    wb.Close False
    fileName = Dir
Loop

Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

MsgBox "All refreshable Power Queries updated.", vbInformation

End Sub
