@PawarBI I’m curious to see what notebooks in apps would actually look like.
Is it just static/locked results that the user can view? Or does the user have ability to edit and/or run the notebook? Would I actually want end users running a notebook?
English
I am officially super excited about OrgApps in #MicrosoftFabric, especially the notebooks in Apps. 🚀This is the future, so many exciting possibilities and modalities to surface insights to users.

@eric_beery11 @zachrenwick you can also pin the PWA (progressive web app) to your taskbar. That is what I did. Also works excellently on the iPad or other tablets.
English
The new right-click taskbar “end task”feature in Windows is perfect for when “Outlook (new)” freezes 47 times in one day
English
@eric_beery11 I just use Outlook from my web browser, Outlook (new) is basically the same view

@kevarnold I’m planning on making the drive from Cleveland tomorrow morning! Looking forward to it

@JohnKutay (disclaimer, I haven’t listened to your podcast)
1. interview practitioners, as opposed to people with a product to sell
2. focus discussion on methods, not tools
3. expand outside the tech bubble (mfg, banking, insurance, etc.)

Looking for feedback...what are you looking for in a data podcast? I mostly invite hands-on operators and entrepreneurs with technical experience to tell their story, their vision, the art of the possible. What do you want from a data podcast that you listen to?

Just because I have imposter syndrome doesn’t mean I’m not actually incompetent

@CJHandmer This fantastic book recently changed my thinking on this

"Mathematica, a Secret World of Intuition and Curiosity" is out tomorrow — phew! It took me 20 years to fail to write it and 1 to actually do it. Thanks @stevenstrogatz, Terry Tao, Hugo Duminil, @DrEugeniaCheng, @benorlin, Ian Stewart for the great blurbs! yalebooks.yale.edu/book/978030027…

I'm continually surprised by how rare mental arithmetic skill is among technical people. It's about as hard to learn as riding a bike (ie not hard) and it puts first principles thinking on warp drive. With daily practice you can quickly get faster results than using a calculator even for complicated operations. It also greatly improves physical intuition. I see it as a kind of literacy.

@ajordannafa Also implies the existence of a reliable method of quantifying "productivity", which I've yet to see for many knowledge roles

@matsonj Half our league (myself included) took Cinnci last week lol

@matsonj @alexkyllo They come up with the most hilarious buzzword salads in their ads.
"Secure, traceable, LLM-agnostic, deterministic, hallucination-free, IP liability-free…”

@eric_beery11 It's a shame, really, that Microsoft decided to not ship .NET runtimes as part of Windows past .NET Framework 4.8.2...
Perhaps we can create a self-contained build of TE3 that includes the .NET runtime. We'll investigate that. Stay tuned!

Sitting over here stuck on 3.2.3 because...well maybe you can guess

@notaboutthecell #TruncateEverything sounds like a good way to very quickly lose your data warehouse privileges 😳

What are the top 10 ranks from IITJEE, the hardest exam in India, 2009 doing today? The craziest thing is India won 4 International Physics Olympiad Golds, and all 4 were in the top 6! Rank 1 — Nitin Jain IPhO Gold, IIT Delhi, Twitter, Google SWE. 1 of 2 who is in India. 1/11

@AgulloBernat Makes sense, thanks. I’m still trying to get a feel for what to use when. So many options…
English
@eric_beery11 Well, I'm not quite a python guy. Plus in this case I might have to hand it over to someone from the business. For simple JSONs the approach is overkill, but to handle the Scanner API jsons, I kind of like it.
English
RestAPI extraction with notebook storing into the files part of the lakehouse. JSON transformation with Dataflow Gen2. So nice, so easy.

@GaugeRedundant @LongFormMath The Erdös one was the first one that popped into my head, but the way I always heard it he called children "epsilons" because epsilon sometimes stands for "small error"
English
REQUEST: I am looking for anecdotes/quotes about "famous mathematicians were people too." That is, I don't want stories about their math. I want stories about their friends, family, joy, grief, struggles, charity, humor, etc.
Hoping for lots. Quotes/letters are ideal. Thank you!
