Something internal must be going on at Microsoft. My company's PowerBI service has had some major performance issues over the past week

>Don't most Microsoft products feel that way?

They really do. A lot of their products feel like a "too many cooks" situation where there's too many things being packed into a UI that can't exactly handle it. To make matters worse, the errors you get when something fails aren't too helpful and they are used across various Microsoft platforms. You have to always ensure you're looking for help on PowerBI vs PowerBI developer or PowerQuery.

PowerBI's UI runs off of WebView and it's the most frustrating thing. That whole software feels like someone mashed together different colors of play-doh and called it a new one. There are multiple ways to do the same thing within the software, but they have differing levels of efficiency. It's a Frankenstein's Monster of technologies bundled up into this lacking visualization software.

Here's the video I think.

Deep sea portholes are usually cones of acrylic that seat right into a port in the hull [0]

The first image does show the porthole without any glass (acrylic) in it, but I'm sure an implosion would be violent enough to blow it out anyway. I'm going to be very interested in what they determine to be the critical failure point. Porthole is a possibility, but there were some other points of failure in the joining of the titanium domes to the carbon composite hull.

You're confusing CO2 (carbon dioxide) with CO (carbon monoxide). CO doesn't cause the same physiological fear response that CO2 does.

Same boat. I try to follow more niche subs and unsubscribed from any of the large ones. I can't notice it from my home page. Popular has been a lot different on the other hand.

It has a battery pack that will last for 2 hrs.

Yeah, the voice-gen software has been pretty great lately. The annoyance at folks who wanna ignore that is warranted. Their responses come off very flippant and contrarian.

Some of the rappers he interviews get very paranoid when he pulls up those deep cuts from his research. It can be pretty funny to watch.

Star Wars Squadrons really excels with this. It seemed like it was a VR only game before being released non-VR, but the style of game really would take well to VR.

I've actually visited this place! It was a very informative visit and had a great museum attached. I found a lot of it beautiful

The numbers are in the article...

I work at a startup that outsourced its early dev, somehow got sold to a large company.

We had a technical CTO that really wrangled everyone, but he left not soon after we got bought out, dev has been a shitshow ever since.

Well, this report had enough substance to cause Adani Group to lose $28B in a month...

I found this video a while back that highlights what you're talking about.[0] Might be an interesting one to show to your wife.

Anyone have a non-paywall link? 12ft.io isn't working for me

No ones saying report location constantly, but it is a dick move to not let people know that you'll be disconnecting and be unreachable for a while. Otherwise it can be very concerning if no one can get in touch or if there's an emergency.

I love this idea. Got any good tips on making sushi rice?

It's extremely easy to clear more than 25-30 an hour waiting tables in a lot of places.

There's nothing on their website saying there's an app or you need to pair it with a phone. It seems to be all contained within the housing.

> There was a book I read, once, which had a house much larger on the inside than on the outside..

House of Leaves was such an experience to read. I really liked how they had a unique take on the medium and act of reading.

I'm not shocked that very left-leaning states are doing things like this

Can I upload a full .pbix file to this and use it for versioning? If so, I'd use it in a heartbeat.

So uh... where are the links to the documents? It's Newsweek of all publishers. Every link they have in that article goes to another Newsweek article with a bunch of noise.

Take a vacation, seriously.

I took 2 weeks off earlier this year and it did wonders for my motivation and accruing burnout.

It would be really a cool experiment to have AI generated visuals real-time in a video game.

To be fair, Radiologic Technologists are different than a Radiologist. The former is a certification requiring a 2 year degree, the latter requires a Doctorate of Medicine which takes an additional 4 years at least on top of 4 years of undergrad. Then you need 4 years of residency and an additional sub-speciality year on top of that to be a Radiologist.

So, very different.

> Almost immediately after I arrived, I learned our VP of Engineering – who I hugely respected – was leaving. Disappointing, but nothing like the shock one month later when, at a Friday debrief, it was announced that our CTO and the two other most senior engineers had also resigned.

> I remember that meeting, where I and two others remained at the table after everyone else had left the boardroom. “Shit” and “well this is fucked” was all we managed to say into the shocked silence, and I began to worry that I’d made a terrible mistake.

This was my experience, too. The company just released its v2 app and was having meetings finalizing an acquisition the first week I was there. Within 5 months, the engineering team I worked on went from 7-8 employees to 3, including the resignation of the CTO. It's going alright now, but it definitely was worrisome.
