Hey @powerbi.bsky.social, with the Power BI community site in “read-only” mode today, is there an alternative place for us to submit bugs/issues in the meantime? #PowerBI

Folks who manage large #PowerBI models with incremental refresh, how do you handle “static” start dates for archived data (ex keep everything 2016-present)?

Set rolling window periods to some arbitrarily large value? Manually increment rolling window periods each year? Some other way?

Excited about the revival of a community here. Data Twitter was the tech mentor I was missing during my career change.

Can't help feeling tho that the dissolution was only partially due to the changes over there...feels like there was also a massive (downward) vibe shift in the field that coincided

Been fine-tuning an Excel model over the last few years to compare health insurance options for my wife and me - breakeven points, cost splits, the works. Had Claude double-check my math this year - it recreated everything as a working React component in about 35 seconds

The shop I work in is hiring a data person (Power BI, Tableau, etc), if anyone is searching for a (US-based) jerb. Management is good and the gig is fully remote. Let me know if you have any questions.

Playing around with #PowerBI paginated reports dynamic subscriptions, but can't seem to work out how to pass in multi-select parameters.

Like: fruit in (apple, pear).

I've tried various combinations of (apple, pear), {"apple", "pear"}, (apple |pear), etc. but no luck so far
