That's a wrap for the #dataMindsConnect #CallForSpeakers. It's safe to say it's been wild one, especially in the closing days. We closed off last night at a whopping *780* submissions by a boatload of people. 371 according to the image, but there ~12 more invites waiting. 1/

Where last year it still took 36h, we have #SoldOut all 18 #PartnerBooths for #dataMindsConnect 2024 in just 1h... It's a crazy race, but we are honoured and privileged that so many companies are helping us bring our event to the #MicrosoftDataPlatform community year after year!

Someone asked me how to get started w/ Python and data analysis in notebooks. I learned from this guy. It's old but it will get you up and running in no time. He covers the Python basics as well, enough for you to do data analysis. #MicrosoftFabric youtu.be/MAgjTEU7OEQ?si=nLID…

First, the report: 1️⃣ The overall layout is - to be fair - quite clean, considering it's automated. 2️⃣ The metrics at the top are a count of region, year, and month, which aren't valuable at all. 3️⃣ There's deception: color is arbitrary and so is sorting in the line chart 4️⃣ Charts are redundant; the blue and pink line chart and the map could be one chart with drilldown. 5️⃣ What is the business question that this report is answering? What insights is it really delivering? What is the value? More importantly... can it be trusted? ⬇️

Suggestion: when you use #chatgpt to produce content you will publish, include this prompt: "Remove the hype and do not use terms and verbs such as landscape delve proactive pivotal evolving resilience thrilled seamless fast-paced unravel world embark quest" 🙏

New Blog published by #MicrosoftFabric CAT team on guidance on using LH/WH architecture. Link to predictive maintenance points to Azure Databricks so I guess it's likely on the way? WH already does auto-compaction, LH is still manual. learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fa….
