Are you using legends in your #PowerBI charts? @data-dragoness.bsky.social proves legends are more than colorful labels—they’re your chart’s GPS. Watch her turn clutter into eye-popping clarity and make every data point shout its name. Watch on YouTube - guyinacu.be/legends

Faucet first. If you didn’t know, I’m a huge fan of @data-dragoness.bsky.social and also the president of her fan club. If you’re looking to FAFO with #MicrosoftFabric add this podcast to your list. A lot of great analogies and discussions about shaving yaks.

Does anyone have a good lip reading app or software? Dad officially cannot talk and that would allow us to still communicate before we get eye gaze devices
