#PowerBI debate. We need an excel Power bi visual. The ability to insert an Excel table into a page. Then, to be able to insert any field into any of the cells. Basically, we need an Excel grid + OLAP formulas in a PowerBI visual. We also need SSRS Tablix in PowerBI.

@MikeAinOz Excel is awesome when connected to PowerBI. And I had high hopes for excel online in PowerBI. But I think an excel (or at least an excel like grid) that you can free form edit in a power bi visual would solve loads of problems.

@T2Rugby I don't think people view it as a small minority sport. Not as big as GAA and soccer, but certainly 3rd after them. That is small. Sports like hockey, cricket, etc, those are small minority sports.

@jpquinn78 @UCC Not a bother. I must call in on a quite day. Also, would love to see inside the Crawford observatory. Is that ever open?

@benrebooted Nope. Now, there is at least two of us! Thankfully, it is pronounced the same way.

Hi, I just learnt that when you say "that's a good segway into our next topic", it's actually "segue". I thought it was to do with those big wheel things, aka segway. Please don't let me be the only one...

@adrianweckler I have started using Co Pilot. (Paid subscription) and I have been been impressed with some of it outputs. It can be flaky, especially around email, which I find surprising as email is all just text right!

Pretty damning about Microsoft’s Copilot. “…selling science projects to companies…”

#Copilot experiences. Today, I was amazed. Needed to do something in powershell. I don't know powershell. 1 hour later, I have a sophisticated script that does what I need. It would have taken me at least a day via search and would have been a half baked solution.

@gavreilly @kenfoxe They don't micromanage, but do any of them ever ask, "and how much will this cost? 350k for a bike shelter, seams expensive, can you confirm?" Sort of like you would do if it was your own house. That isn't micromanagement. That is governance.

@_JeDC_ I would recommend that any small of solo consultants get a Microsoft action pack as this gives you azure credits ($100 a month) which you can help when running a small fabric with a logic app turning on and off.

What will all of you solo or small consultants do when the #PowerBI #Fabric trial ends? Will you purchase an F2 license, or what are your plans?

@notaboutthecell @_JeDC_ I have done the same. In fact, I didn't bother with trial as, IMO, that gives a false sense of performance as it is an F64, which is beyond a lot of my clients. F4 starting and stopping with PBI in import mode is my default.

Finishing The Handmaids Tale tonight. Possibly looking at The Man in the High Castle next. Is it worth watching ? Thoughts ?

@HugoGordon1 My only good memory of this was watching it in a super sized American Cinema screen. First job out of college, work trip to the states, good times, bad movie.
