Just went through a really positive experience with the Tabular Editor folks when I was running into some issues. @dotykier.bsky.social and the TE team were so responsive and got my issues resolved quickly. Other vendors take note!
We haven't been active recently due to the difficulty of getting in-person speakers in ABQ and not finding value in being yet another virtual-only group. But I'd be very interested in getting some new folks involved to overcome those issues!
Wasn't Datbar Bicks in one of the Star Wars films?
Up to the minute! Assembled in the last month or so, anyway. :-)
Ah, the good ol' days!

Well, there goes my productivity for the rest of the day..
For me it was the "who" I had to regretfully leave out.
Came up with a slightly different take. Hopefully you'll see it in Atlanta... or Barcelona!
That's good! Unfortunately I wasn't clever enough to think of it before I hit submit!
Current status: trying to come up with a better session title for my FabCon submission. Not sure that "What The Fuck Is Fabric IQ" would make it past the selection committee...

There must be a rogue owner-related line in the code base somewhere that raises hell if it's commented out or deleted. :-)
Just lost a day of work because I didn't recognize the #Fabric error I was getting as indicating an ownership issue. I still don't understand what benefit exists by having object ownership still be a thing...

Managed to pass the #Fabric DP-700 exam by the skin of my teeth!
That was a pretty tough exam considering I don't use the RTI components in my daily work.

Tusen takk, Johan, og du også!
Thanks, Reitse! And to you as well!
I'm proud and excited to be re-awarded the Microsoft Data Platform MVP designation for year number six! Helping folks along their data and analytics journeys feels more and more rewarding every year. #MVPBuzz
I'm looking forward to the AI telling the college that they need to offer more AI classes.
Have you tried implying that some form of nebulous AI is incorporated in the dashboards? 😇
I'd point you to one of my current clients, but it's a little too late...
Unfortunately, I think you're "underestimating" C-level executives.
I fully understand this, but having been a machinist in a previous career, I'm in no rush to go back!
I'm really not liking this new trend of events stepping on long-standing local user groups without co-ordinating with them. The latest offenders: meetu.ps/e/P8jgm/9rDN...
Yeah, I suppose I gave to oay that anyway.
So I can attend a one-day for-profit data event for $350 or go to a Data Saturday / SQL Saturday community event for just $15... Tough choice...
Make sure you tell him the one about why all the ships in the Swedish navy have bar codes on the bottom...
