Upgraded my mic for the at home setup and I wanted to balance out the EQ more so I wasn't flat across the band. I had GitHub Copilot evaluate some audio files and we iterated on it to get settings where I wanted them with my GoXLR Mini. An operating system that can self-heal, all I want.

I started creating a vega-lite builder to help me teach people how to create visuals in Deneb. I think there are some pretty nice features in it, so feel free to take a look and see if it could be useful to you, too. #PowerBI #Datavis #VegaLite #Deneb powerbiferrytales.github.io/vegalite.html

Recently I worked on a project using Microsoft Fabric where I needed to create a connection to an API that used Bearer tokens to access the data. In this post some of the challenges that I hit.

I used to struggle with Packt spam - but this Reddit DM got me scratching my head, I don't even know what the hell the ask is. I had to see it, so you do now too!

New Video for the AI-Enabled Power BI Tester In this video, I walk through how to display test results from PQL.Assert directly in a Power BI report. This approach adds transparency for report consumers & helps build confidence in the data they're using.

Fabric notebook resources in Git give Spark teams a real release boundary Most Spark notebook trouble is not caused by the notebook. It is caused by the little files loitering around it. A notebook runs fine in dev. In test, it quietly depends on a config file somebody copied by hand. In prod, a…

Workout Wednesday for Power BI 2026 Week 12 is out! We are using the input slicer and multi-category cards, both of which got updates in February. And we are using DAX to make sure matrix subtotals show meaningful information. Give it a try: www.workout-wednesday.com/pbi-2026-w12/ #Wow2026 #PowerBI

I give every mobile app that prompts me for a rating a 5 star in hopes that they never ever prompt me again. I must be a nightmare for product teams who look at net prompter scores.

One of the best WIT Luncheons I've had the pleasure to attend was with @grrlgeek.bsky.social. Perhaps my favorite nugget of wisdom is when talking about a setback at work "Do not consider these things a failure unless you do not learn from them." youtu.be/ZX3no0r6X58?... #datawit #celebratingwomen

I realize one of the reasons I’ve been historically skeptical of AI productivity gains is that I primarily used ChatGPT and the idea that could make anyone 2x more productive was laughable. Switching to Claude Code completely switched my perspective. The models and tool use matters.

Ohh baby.That’s the good stuff right there. Maybe all the waiting around staring at defrag was good for us - now it’s just all stress and anxiety.

After a bug with Handy and Terminal, I asked GitHub Copilot CLI to review and flub some stuff around. It fixed the bug and filed a ticket with the developer on a solution. Thanks @scott.hanselman.com for the fun session and discussion about this wild world we live in :) github.com/cjpais/Handy...
