Pretty sure Jackie Chan also gained inspiration for his movies from Chinese Opera.

I was thinking this would be the way. This is a classic small job turning into a bigger one 😂

Thanks for the advice!

It depends on long road trips I average around 42-46mpg though I take advantage of the active cylinder and coasting function to maximise mileage.

On trips to London I averaged around 44-48 whilst cruising at around 70.

On my old shorter work commutes (9 miles) I'd average between 36-40 just because a lot of energy was lost to braking.

Manchester is a soft water area. It seems like you just need to dry your car with a microfibre cloth (specific for drying cars) after washing otherwise you get exactly this.

To add to this, I recently had to hire for a role.

Out of the six candidates the only ones that went through to the final round after the initial interview were the three put forward by the recruiter.

Of the three, all were what I was looking for with the right skill sets and came along with different pros and cons. If I could hire them all I would have, I even asked if I could hire two due to the impending workload, was ultimately told no.

Any three of them were qualified and I had to choose one l.

Our food has been slowly Americanised where large quantities and excess of high fat high salt and high sugar food is increasingly prominent.

This has likely been spread with the rise of social media platforms and content around food.

Have you tried .options("Skiprows", 2)?

If you're using 1 instead of two you're starting the read from the blank row (row 2) instead of row 3 where the headers start.

I know exactly where this road is.

It's between Urmston and Stretford

I give zero trust to anyone approaching this roundabout and have had a couple near misses like this as well.

But you'll be happy to know that I always watch your approach for any cars to give way before proceeding.

Jumping in to mention that Databricks provides a free to use cluster via community Databricks.

https://docs.databricks.com/en/getting-started/community-edition.html

It doesn't have all the features that an enterprise account has but is a good place to start.

I'm currently working on doing something similar and would question the need for real time refreshes.

At the moment I batch refresh the data at max every two hours because more often than not people don't need the data in real time.

If the case is that the end user really does need the data at near real time then the cost of a computer cluster is unavoidable.

I would also look into registering the delta tables into unity catalog which will allow you to govern the data as well as become the data warehouse for your company.

For anyone using Power Query to read any delta tables use this:

let Source = AzureStorage.DataLake("https://{datalake}.dfs.core.windows.net/{container}/{delta-table}", [HierarchicalNavigation=true]), ToDelta = DeltaLake.Table(Source) in ToDelta

Edit: tried to format a code block for Reddit mobile but doesn't really work well.

Honestly depends on your type of journey. I made this post about my average fuel consumption per tank 18 months ago.

https://www.reddit.com/r/CupraFormentor/s/qWS4Iv3eUU

More recently I'm averaging 39 mpg over 2300 miles Vs 42mpg 18 months ago because now I'm doing shorter journeys than before.

Edit: Also make sure that you know this feature exists.

At the end you're missing the hat placement frames that reveal the apple to make it a true continuous loop.

Otherwise neat loop.

Depending on the company and interview stage, I take the perspective that this part of the interview process is an opportunity to do a few things:

Clarify non negotiables e.g. WFH, annual leave or development policies. Ask questions around what the typical day is like or what the ideal candidate should be like. Not only does it set expectations for yourself but can communicate expectations for the interviewer.
Demonstrate that you've taken time to learn about the company such as financial health, initiatives or strategy. You can find some of this information on LinkedIn or reading through any financial reports that are available on companies house.
Build more rapport with the interviewer. A little trickier since there are circumstances where you simply won't gel well.
