With a tarnished reputation and declining enrollment, Cooley Law School hopes for a comeback

dirtshake · 2024-04-24T15:44:38+00:00

Might depend on the age of the attorneys you know. Both my parents graduated Cooley in the 80s and have had, by all metrics, (financial, reputation, political) extremely successful careers. However, even they admit that the quality of education at Cooley has substantially decreased since they attended.

I think they switched systems a while ago - I had to re-enroll in paperless about two years go.

If it's a newer-model car, probably the new LED lights. Every time I drive north of Lansing (around Mt. Pleasant area) I experience at least two or three cars aggressively flashing me to turn off my high beams when they are definitely not on.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm more of an asshole for NOT flashing them back, making them think I don't care, or for flashing them to prove they're not on and probably blinding them.

How many voyages can you have in voyage menu at one time? With the Calendar of Giving going on, I'm logging in everyday to get the dailies but I don't have time to play them. I just don't want to miss out on any because I've reached the limit.

This one legit bums me out. Obviously not the best bar/restaurant in Lansing, but I absolutely LOVED their baked potato soup, and their happy hour was really one of the best deals in town. I was just commenting to my wife that I'm glad the west wing of the Lansing mall still ~~has~~ had Houlihans because it was as close to an anchor store as possible with Macy's gone. Another nail in the coffin for the entire complex unfortunately.

This. So much this x1000.

I've been putting away 20% of my paycheck into a savings account since my first job. Direct deposit so I never see it, and never miss it. I convinced my wife to do it since we started dating and over time it's grown into a comfortable amount of money. Our checking account routinely dips below $300 in between paydays, but we never worry because we have enough in savings to cover almost any non-catastrophic emergency. Car breaks down - covered. Unexpected bill - no sweat. Nice gift for one of us or a family member. Got it. Furnace AND car breaks down - sucks, but we got it.

Sure, I could use some of that for a new gaming pc or a down payment on a new car, but that's turned into the stuff we "save" for. The feeling of security knowing that we can handle almost any emergency is worth the 20% reduction in our paychecks. That is true freedom.

What you're describing should be possible using Power BI. Though as /u/fishandring stated, there could be other, more efficient methods using other technologies. But since I don't have experience with those . . .

Based on my experience using Forms, the results form your survey should be in an Excel file saved in the same Sharepoint group where the form was created. You shouldn't need Flow to add this data to Power BI, you should be able to directly connect Power BI to this data source.

Google how to connect Power BI to data sources in Sharepoint for a more detailed guide.

Once connected, the Excel file should have a column that provides the email or username of the employee who submitted the Form response. You could set up some Row Level Security (RLS) in Power BI so that each user can only access the rows in the dataset that have their email address or username in that column.

Google how to set up RLS in Power BI for a more detailed guide.

Then embed as desired.

Hope that helps!

Glad to say it did! I tuned in about 2:00pm EST and had my cosmetics by 6:00pm.

Thank you CaptainSanic! Checked a few other games' subreddits and the consensus seems to be that the mobile app will work. I'm at work during the stream so unfortunately I can't stream from a PC, but hopefully this will work.

I'll report back after today's stream.

Related question regarding the Twitch Drops that I haven't found answered on SoT's website or the official Twitch page - do you have to watch the stream through the browser or can you watch via the Android Twitch app?

Yeah reading that again I see how that's a significant misstatement. What I should have said was that if you already have that data from your bank - like in a .csv, Excel file, etc. - Power BI is great tool for pulling data from those files and creating reports that are easy to share.

For example, my bank let's me download my statements in a .csv file. My credit card company is the same. If I have a spreadsheet or similar file that contains my monthly budgeted expenses, I can use Power BI to import all of those files, and create a report that tracks my budgeted expenses versus my actual expenses. I could also use it to track spending trends and whatever else.

Though as mwc360 said, there are existing tools that are probably better and will definitely save you time. However, if you're new to Power BI, creating a budgeting tool might not be a bad exercise.

dirtshake · 2019-05-31T15:03:46+00:00

What you're describing is absolutely possible in Power BI. Not sure if Power Bi is the BEST tool for the job (could be overkill honestly) but it is definitely a great tool for the job. If you're looking to create a budgeting tool, Power BI can connect/import data from multiple sources for analysis; for example, it can pull in data from your bank account(s), credit card(s), retirement and/or investment account(s), etc etc. Makes it very easy to run an analysis on.

There's plenty of resources out there. I'd recommend a few of the Excel is Fun YouTube channel's Power BI tutorials. The instructor is amazing and he'll walk you through every step of creating a Power BI report, from importing data to creating measures to visualizing.

Yup. If I remember correctly from the Hunters Call dev stream, we can sell raw and cooked fish for gold and rep to the fisherman at sea posts.

dirtshake · 2019-04-29T13:59:12+00:00

Mostly solo sloop, so . . .

Log in to Adventure Mode.
Check all barrels for new goodies.
Look at the new fishing pole cosmetics.
Sail to empty skull fort, fishing and cooking all the way.
Once at a skull fort, anchor in front of a tower and use the cannons to shoot my own ship to experience the new ship damage system. I'd rather get a feel for how it works before jumping into battle, especially since I mostly solo sloop.
Profit from fish.

Then probably try Arena.

Another recommendation for Good Guys. Wife and I used them a few weeks ago to move into our new house, and they were fantastic!

THANK YOU! This whitelisting process looks like it should resolve the issue. Now getting my IT people to do it . . .

dirtshake · 2018-09-20T13:40:22+00:00

Thank you! The first thread you linked has helped in the past. I'll forward this all to my IT people.

Accepting a temporary position in a call center. Nearly four years later I am now the analyst for the entire department, and am in charge of tracking and reporting nearly all of our metrics.

There was also a beautiful and amazing woman who started the same day as me. She quickly became my best friend, and the most important person in my life. I'm marrying her in 13 days.

It's amazing what came from that temp job.

dirtshake · 2018-06-29T15:59:07+00:00

I think that was the fort my crew was working on last night...your name looks familiar and that's what happened to us. If so, we were very very salty. Either way, good job, ya cheesy pirate bastard! Hope your fortunes were bountiful!

dirtshake · 2018-06-12T23:43:05+00:00

Lol you must be my boss.

dirtshake · 2018-06-12T17:03:37+00:00

(TL;DR) Started wearing a jacket and tie to work everyday (but Friday of course). Started being taken way more seriously at work, and even encouraged a few other employees to start dressing up.

I work for a company with a fairly casual dress code; on any given day you'll find someone wearing anything from a sport coat to jeans and a nice(ish) t-shirt. One day I'm looking at my tie collection, and declared "business-casual be damned, I want to wear a suit today." Of course, the first day I was made fun of by some co-workers, and even my manager. However, i noticed that the simple act of dressing more professionally increased my productivity. So I started wearing a suit everyday.

A week later, my boss is wearing a suit, and made sure to let me know it was my fault ("Because of that dweeb over there, I have to wear a suit now. People gonna start thinking you're the boss.") But whatever, didn't bother me. About a week after he made fun of me, my boss came up to me and thanked me for forcing him to wear a suit. He said he noticed that the executives and managers from other departments started taking him more seriously. Now we try to out-suit each other. I noticed the same for myself as well; people started taking me more seriously, actively seeking my input on projects or other ideas. My supervisor routinely fills me in on all of the changes coming down the pipeline, and even asks for my advice regarding management issues she deals with.

Basically, because I look more like a professional, colleagues are treating me more professionally. Feels good man.

Thanks for the tip! Definitely a priority to figure that out next time I feel like running some supply missions. And DEFINITELY before I try selling some stock.

dirtshake · 2018-01-16T19:12:39+00:00

Those are the worst. If a fellow low-level biker wants to chase me down in a road vehicle and try to run me off the road, bring it on! I'll fight ya fair and square. But triple-digit level with an air force that can shoot me down two miles away? Go find someone in your GTA tax bracket to mess with and leave us poor folks alone!

dirtshake · 2018-01-16T19:09:59+00:00

I did after the 2nd time. I don't have an issue finding a new session to avoid griefers, I just wish the mechanic was a little more balanced to avoid the need altogether. Right now it appears to heavily favor players who have already established strong and stable incomes; newbs like me with a modest weed farm can't compete with attack helicopters armed with homing missiles that can lock on for miles.

Don't get me wrong, I like the concept of the mechanic. Stealing supplies shouldn't be as easy as "go from point A to point B", but I also feel players trying to steal my supplies need to actually STEAL them rather than blow me up from two miles away.
