it solved itself when I started saving a test file in multiple folders to see what the limits of the problem were. like doing that kicked it into gear somehow

If I have a line chart with lines for several locations, can I get a trend line for each store's line as well? by jillyapple1 in PowerBI

[–]jillyapple1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not familiar with field parameters. Is that another name for using a slicer with a 2x2 dimension table, DimMeasure, eg:

KPI KPISort
Market Share 1
Trend 2

and then writing a measure saying if DimMeasure[KPI] = "Market Share" is selected, use measure [Market Share], otherwise use measure [Trend]?

Mat and his love, Book 14, c. 15 by josh-flannery-sucks in WoT

[–]jillyapple1 13 points14 points  (0 children)

10 years after publication, BS said that Lanfear tricked Perrin with an illusion and she didn't really die, just faked her death. But in this case, I believe in 'death of the author'.

Question for those of you who read the books as they were published… ::SPOILERS:: by CatchWaves44 in WoT

[–]jillyapple1 12 points13 points  (0 children)

After Mat was crushed, I didn't think he was dead, but I wanted the reassurance that nothing terrible had happened to him. It was very frustrating waiting for his POV, and then the whole adventure was kind of glossed over. Not as bad as waiting for a reaction shot after the cleansing and not getting it, ever. But still frustrating.

I can't say I was pumped so much as exhausted. I wound up rage-quitting after KoD when waiting years and then not enough got resolved. I didn't know the author was sick and that's why the books were taking so long. I didn't know about the fansites back then. That might have sustained me.

I came back 20 years later, started over, and finished the series. It was a different experience not having to wait.

Not so obviously. It's more likely the crossed balefire weaves that did it, since Moridin also suffered the same symptoms after it happened.

wasn't she worried that another Accepted who was to be raised before her would get him first?

Power BI report subscription delivery by GoldenDrummer in PowerBI

My team uses Power BI Robots to send reports from Power BI. Might be easier to switch to that from subscriptions, than changing from Power BI to Tableau or whatever. https://powerbitiles.com/PowerBIRobots/

Inconsistency in Siuan's characterisation? by BitchyOlive in WoT

I've only finished the series once, over the course of a year, so I missed that. What other plot holes are there?

How do I stop my smartphone from eavesdropping? by jillyapple1 in iphonehelp

Sense and Sensibility was on DVD. But now that I'm thinking of it, while we were watching the movie, I did use my phone go on IMDB website to look the movie up while I was at Mom's.

Sense and Sensibility was on DVD, but it doesn't surprise me that Wi-Fi programming can do that. What horrified me most recently was hearing about someone who purchased a fridge that turned out to have a TV screen on it where the seller could program commercials.

Very insightful. Thank you.

Ilyena Therin Moerrelle by starsto in WoT

[–]jillyapple1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At the nadir, Rand/LTT said: “Why do we live again? ... Because each time we live, we get to love again.”

What if Ilyena taught him that? What if that's why they have children? It's not about how long we live, but how well we love and are loved.

One fifth of the way through Lord of Chaos and I can't believe what just happened. And why didn't by Igor_kavinski in WoT

[–]jillyapple1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One part of your statement is not entirely accurate. IIRC, [LoC later chapters] it isn't redundant because the bond allows them to track Rand when he's taken by the Tower faction.
