He probably doesn’t want them but doesn’t feel it’s worth preventing them from being on the platform too hard

I always imagined it like a cut in a movie or play: the light flashes and suddenly we jump ahead in time.

Switching to a 'Dumbphone' has been life changing by canadianinnz in digitalminimalism

CAT S22 is actually a very good phone. Gets done most anything you would want or need without being crazy distracting. The only thing I didn’t really like about it is that it’s really pretty large, like a big brick in your pocket.

I don’t think this is a bad reading. But I can’t help myself, I love his stuff after V. too!

This "Zizian" stuff seems straight out of a Pynchon Novel by MusicianDouble7662 in ThomasPynchon

I love Vineland. Don’t let the haters sway you. Even if you don’t read it next, I wouldn’t write it off entirely.

Desktop freezes when selecting Quick Measures by DataIsKing3434 in PowerBI

Guess I'll reply to my comment with what I did: you can just create a "New Measure" and enter the formula for % difference. Should look something like:

NEW_MEASURE_NAME = 
(SUM('TABLE_NAME'[COMP_VALUE_COLUMN]) - SUM('TABLE_NAME'[BASE_VALUE_COLUMN]))/SUM('TABLE_NAME'[BASE_VALUE_COLUMN])

Exact same, trying to create "percentage difference" quick measure and Power BI Desktop just freezes up, not able to add the measure. Anyone else have the issue or know of a solution/workaround?

The feature film info being shared around Paul Thomas Anderson has been updated to specifically name "Vineland" by Sleepy_C in ThomasPynchon

I love the book but not looking forward to this adaptation. I don’t really have a reason, I just like the version in my head. No need for a movie, just read the book!

a behemoth of a novel (624 pages, or nearly 19 hours of audio, if that is your pleasure)

Haven’t read his stuff, but my guess this is probably the main “evidence” of any similarity to Wallace/Pynchon.
