  1. I've been working on #PowerBits (a collection of #PowerShell scripts for #PowerBI 📊 #Admins) recently, and I just made a minor breakthrough. 💪😎👍

    One of the biggest missing features of the Power BI #RESTAPIs right now is the ability to export a #Dataset as a #PBIX file. Of course, you can export a #Report as a PBIX file, and if that Report is bound to a Dataset, then the Dataset will be included with the Report when you export it. However, if the Dataset you need to export doesn't have a Report bound to it (I've started calling this a #BareDataset), then the #RESTAPI can't help you. That Dataset can only be exported manually from the Power BI Service using a web browser. Yuck! 🤮

    To solve this problem:
    1. Find and select a target #BareDataset
    2. Upload a #BlankReport to the same #Workspace
    3. Re-bind the blank Report to the bare Dataset
    4. Export the blank Report as a PBIX file
    5. Delete the blank Report from the Workspace

    Step 1 Complete (mostly) 😅:

    But the phone app on #Android can do that too, right?

    If that #Tasker is what I think it is, I have a similar app that I use, #Macrodroid. I like it. Actually paid for the premium version. But I don't use it for call screening. Should I? 🤔

  8. I've been using #Tabby (formerly #Terminus) as my main #Terminal app for a while, and I've customized it quite a bit, so I thought I'd share some of my favorite #TabbyTweaks.

    1. A #PowerShell script that launches Tabby, waits for its #MainWindowHandle to appear, then hides it using #ShowWindowAsync #Win32 #API (see #GitHub link below)
    2. Docking setting enabled (I keep mine docked to the left edge of my main display)
    3. Ctrl+` hotkey mapped to "toggle (show/hide) terminal window"
    4. Custom #PowerShellCore, #WindowsPowerShell, #CMD, #WSL, and #SSH profiles (both admin and non-admin)
    5. #OhMyPosh running a slightly modified #froczh theme

  9. Hey #PowerBI peeps, I'll be on #ToolTalk with Artur König and @mthierba on Tuesday, March 21st.

    We'll be talking about a little #ExternalTool I wrote for #PowerBIDesktop called #PbiToolsWatchPS, which launches a #PowerShell window running #pbitools in #WatchMode on the current #pbix file. The purpose of this little tool is to minimize the effort and number of steps necessary to #commit changes to Power BI #reports and #datasets into a proper #VersionControl system like #GitHub, #AzureDevOps, etc.

    Please join us #LIVE on Tuesday, March 21st, give us your thoughts about the current state of #CICD and #DevOps / #DataOps for Power BI, and tell us about your favorite #ToolsOfTheTrade!

    Wow, they just went full #GlengarryGlenross, didn't they?

    I was #RadicalizedAgainstCapitalism in 2012, while working at a #JPMC branch. #Corporate gave us a bunch of ridiculous, unattainable sales goals and called them #commitments, even though they never asked for our opinion, or if we were willing to make those commitments.

    Naturally, these unattainable goals were not met, and corporate started accusing us of "failing to meet our commitments." They framed it as a moral failing on our part instead of a failure on their part to actually do the research and determine what amount of sales they might reasonably expect from that branch.

    My team was composed exclusively of highly experienced #bankers with long track records of exemplary sales performance. But corporate, rather than accept that maybe they had made a miscalculation, just gaslit and systematically fired us, one by one, until they had to close the branch.

    I've been #AntiCapitalist ever since.

    This is fascinating!

    I've been studying #Czech, which shares a ton of #phonemes and #vocabulary with other #Slavic languages, but is written with a Latin-based character set (I say "Latin-based" because Czech uses an assortment of #diacritic marks as #pronunciation modifiers on an otherwise standard #Latin character set).

    On several occasions, I've come across a #Russian or #Ukrainian word written in its native #Cyrillic script followed by a #phonetic pronunciation guide written in Latin characters, and consequently recognized the word as one that is shared with Czech. Those moments of recognition are just pure #linguistic glee.

  24. 🧙‍♂️ One does not simply build reports on OLTP data…

    This week on The Drill Down with Ahmad & James, our special guest
    Kristyna Ferris will be presenting a session titled "The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI"

    🛠️ This session is packed with:
    - Clear distinctions between OLTP & OLAP
    - Tips for building Power BI-ready models
    - A sprinkle of Slowly Changing Dimension magic

    💡Whether you’re a data wizard 🧙, business hobbit 🧝‍♀️, or SQL ranger 🏹 — this is your quest.

    🗓️ Join us LIVE on LinkedIn | Wednesday, July 2nd @ 2PM Central

    Had a moment similar to this recently with one of my kitties: #AleisterMeowley the #DevonRex.

    The camera flash makes him much more visible than he actually was. The back of that closet is so dark, the only way I could tell he was back there was because I could see his glowing eyes.

  26. I just had an idea for a #RickAndMorty alternate universe bit, where they use the #PortalGun to visit a universe where #Morty is a #mortar and #Rick is a #peslte.

    They get in an argument over the names of this antiquated #apothecary tool's parts (which part should have been named the mortar and which the pestle), which then turns into an actual fight over their respective names and bodies in this universe.

    Meanwhile, a gigantic alien pharmacist uses the two of them to grind up some anti-flatulence tablets, then uses #OrsonScottCard (who lives in this universe as a credit card) to cut the resulting powder into two long lines, snorts them, and lets out a long, ecstatic sigh of relief.

    At this last part, Rick and Morty stop fighting and stare up at the alien pharmacist in utter confusion/horror for several seconds, eyes wide and mouths agape. Finally, Morty says "I won't tell anyone if you won't," Rick replies, "Deal," and then zaps them into the next universe with the portal gun.

  27. I'm a bit of a #HomeAutomation nut, and I have two cats whose #litterbox is a #LitterRobot made by #Whisker. The mobile app is supposed to notify me whenever the litter drawer gets full, but it's never worked. (Yes, I've already tried logging out/in, uninstalling/reinstalling, clearing cache, disabling battery optimization, etc.)

    My main hub is a #Hubitat C-7, and until recently, there was an unofficial Litter Robot integration in #HubitatPackageManager that allowed me to circumvent the Whisker app notification issue. Then, Whisker changed their #API, which broke the Hubitat integration, and I was back to manually checking the Whisker app every day.

    Turns out, there's a #HomeAssistant integration that supports the new API, so today, I implemented the most #RubeGoldberg workaround I've ever seen. I installed #Portainer on my #RaspberryPi, spun up HA in #Docker, installed #HACS, enabled the Hubitat #MakerAPI integration, connected it all up, and now my notifications are working again!
