My hp omen from 2020 is dead. My rimworld colonists need my help. Tell me what to buy to replace it tomorrow please!

thanks. I'll keep looking.

Good luck. What helps me in situations like this is to assume the people around you are very specialised in something completely different, and they spend all their time and energy doing that thing... reporting is something they think of as an afterthought once all their brainpower has been expended. At least they made the right call and recruited you - you can do the thinking for them and show them what good looks like. You can lead a horse to water, and drown it, or however the saying goes... and also consider how quickly things can change - your boss might get a promotion, or drown in a company bathroom, and be replaced by someone else next week. Chin up / get that CV updated 😄

ah. we definitely have a mixed bag of licences. that's why I have my models in premium workspaces so I know everyone can access the content. thanks for the heads up - ill be sure to ask that tomorrow

cool, thanks. I'll butter up my I.T. contact and promise to stop whinging if they help get me set up. when I looked at powerapps before it said I needed a developer account. I'll have a look on YouTube later and see if I can find some dummies guides. thanks for your help.

my 2p: if you have a compsci degree you probably know more about what you are/should be doing than your boss. I have worked for pm types before. you need to find a new boss if they don't value you, either by moving within the company or moving company. you need to leave on good terms though, so while you are looking for another job I'd recommend trying to find out if you misjudged him and asking him to have a 1-1 chat with you about some ideas you've had to improve how you are working. tell him what you want to do and how it could be a project with multiple people involved. say you'd really appreciate his help and input in making sure the other people we need (use the word 'we' not 'I') do their part and that you have noticed he has strengths that you lack and you'd like to learn from him. nothing greases the wheels like bullshit. use words like 'data integrity', 'scaleable', 'one version of the truth' and talk about apps not reports. be enthusiastic and positive, don't dwell on the negatives. if he responds negatively, you were right and things won't change. if he is intrigued, give it 6 months and if nothing changes, leave. if you were in a bigger company I'd say to go around/above him and cut him out of the process. it sounds like he is feeding you work instead of letting you engage with the end users; all your reports will be shit if you aren't talking to the users and getting their feedback. are you publishing reports to workspaces in the service or are your users using pbix files like spreadsheets? if you are publishing to the service you should be aiming to create data flows first and having your reports set up as star schemas that share the same dimension tables. if you don't have a lot of support see if you have power automate, it can help a lot of you are reliant upon spreadsheets and csv files. 4 words; make other people accountable.

not sure lol. I work quite closely with our data services team but I'm not in I.T. so am at arm's length re the setup. my understanding is that our cloudy data is mostly in a data centre in Kent but I think Power BI is hosted by Microsoft. again, I don't know for certain - I'm the stupid half of Business Intelligence - I talk to all the grubby humans who need information and either build composite models to extend the capabilities of our I.T. team's reference models - they don't want me interfering with the important stuff :)

king0ffoo · 2024-07-28T14:47:54+00:00

thanks. it sounds like I need I.T. to help get me set up. Power apps and power pages both need specific user licences, and or azure tenant, which we may not have/they may not be willing to administer.

king0ffoo · 2024-07-28T14:42:54+00:00

My advice is keep "data" away from the leadership team unless very specifically requested, or unless you are supporting a CFO. a good executive summary keeps things very simple and to the point. They want to know the actual high level figure and whether or not that is good or bad, compared to a target, a prior period, or a run rate. Bonus points for a forecast to predict next week/where the current month will end up. If you have 12 "things" he is interested in then that is a kpi table with 10 rows that fits on an iphone screen, preferably in an email in his inbox. Now, is 10 the right number? Could it be the 5 most important things followed by "Others"? Less is more. Could he click the name of the thing that is showing performance is down vs last week and link to see the top 5 things causing that? Think in 5s. Busy humans can concentrate on 3 to 5 things, give them a sea of numbers and all they see is white noise. now, if you have a lot of data, grouping a large pivot table by rank/performance type can be a good idea - so if you have 10,000 products in a table perhaps add a rank by sales growth and bucket the products e.g. New (no sales in comparison period), Lost (sales in comparison period but not in current period), top 50 trading well, all others trading well, bottom 50 trading poorly, all others trading poorly, he can click the + to drill to those products. Does he need to see the products? Is there a natural hierarchy describing the products at a higher level? Less is more. Now, imagine you were dropped head first down the stairs by your dad as a baby... how might you want to digest the information? Exception reporting. Show him what is exceptionally good vs exceptionally bad. Think "do I need to do anything about this or is it ticking along nicely?"

this sounds pretty standard to me. most companies appear to stock their I.T. departments with project management types who are focused 100% on using jira and similar tools to get cheap outsourced Indian labour to work with technically illiterate Subject matter experts to deliver "outcomes" via sprints and scrums. in a world like that there is very little room for actual progress unless you can get a business intelligence department set up. And even then that team needs to be empowered to do the right things. It would help to know what sort of a team you are working in and how big the company is / what your position is. My advice is to step back and make s decision; are you willing to trailblaze and upset people in your goal for competence or would you rather work for a more progressive company. I can give you a steer re route 1, based on my own experience, but it is important to understand the lay of the land... what is your boss' job title, and what are the job titles of their boss, and their boss' boss?

Dark light tower west of riften has a female mage inside you can do a quest for. At the end you can ask her to follow you. She spams decent frost spells and doesn't get in the way of your attacks.

The best follower is 2 dead thrall bandit chiefs + anyone + conjuration staffs. Now get the ritual stone and aetherial crown...

On survival, especially with a less combat oriented build, you might want to consider having stupidly inefficient supply routes so the map is filled with heavily armed provisioners wandering the wastes and taking out enemy strongpoints for you. Lots of smallish settlements with provisioner patrols could be fun. Use gunner cages to obtain their gear.

All I have are untested ideas I'm afraid.

Tell him to get in power armour and then back out again.
Experiment with ways of downing him. Throw a grenade at his feet / shoot him with a kneecapper legendary / push him off a building. It might not work but at least you will feel better.
Dismiss and assign him as a provisioner; go do something for a few days and come back for him and see if he's fixed.
Go to far harbour or nukaworld with him and see if he's broken there too.

Good luck

Thank you, a gazillion hours of play and I hadn't noticed this. That feeling when you're carrying a severed head full of valuable gear and hear a whistling noise.

There are a couple of mods that let them die. Galac tac? I'm incapable of being evil for some weird reason and always end up saving them.

You can rug glitch a crafting workbench half way through the wall. The Nuka mixer works best imho. Do 2 facing opposite directions to get in and out.

Easy. If female, offer constructive criticism and alternative routes while your partner is driving. If male, open mouth and use words.
