If you like that, you should listen to the Conan O Brien podcast episode with adam sandler around the 30 minute mark when they talk about it. They weren't even going to put the video montage together until the last second before the Netflix special.

Adam Sandler's made some pretty shitty movies over the years, but I always get a lot of satisfaction when he and the old SNL guys are together with Conan and they reminisce about the old days and coming up together.

I am in a college course right now where I will be using Microsoft Power BI and Tableau.

Any of you guys have experience in these? Would love to know if you have and if you have any pointers in them.

I have experience in Qlikview. Never worked with the two you asked about...

Interesting... what’s that one about?

Basically the same as the other two. To make reports and analyze your data.

 

[InfinityIggy]

I’ve used Tableau quite a bit.

Ah gotcha. I’ve just never heard of it and just wanted to know if there was any differences in them.

What’s your profession if you don’t mind me asking? I’m majoring in finance, have about a year and a half to go and am still exploring my options. Minor will probably be accounting.

Back to Tableau, I haven’t been exposed to it just yet but I’ve heard it’s a great program. Our class is still trying to learn the ins and outs of Microsoft Power BI and the DAX language. I’ve liked the class so far.

I do Software Dev. Primarily fintech at the moment. It is a very robust program. I’ve worked mostly on the input side, feeding the software data. I imagine doing finance you would work more often on the output side?

I’m assuming that will be the case in the near future

It's 9 pm and +28 outside, +29 inside. Sun is still shining directly to the living room and bedroom. I really need to get some cooling system here

I might not ever again.

I might not ever again.

And other lies you can tell yourself.

Explain?

When can I move in?

 

[crackdown44]

I really wanted to root for the raptors but watching the fans cheer Durant getting injured made me remember how shitty Toronto fans are

I kind of hope they choke it away now

 

[InfinityIggy]

Today’s the day.

THE TORONTO RAPTORS ARE NBA CHAMPIONS...!!!!

In fairness, the fans watched a turnover lead to a fast-break score for the Raptors. Kind of hard to see that and expect them to fall silent. I think it's unfair to claim that the Raptor fans were cheering for an injury specifically vs. cheering for a turnover/score and the momentum that the Raptors had at the time.

 

[Flameshomer]

Maybe OT but did we lose OKG? I was always tough on their trade proposals and extra vociferous about their treatment of Monahan, but they were a great contributor (at least of dissenting opinion... lol)

Did you just change names OKG?!

edit: switched to gender neutral pronouns because you never know.

FIFA Women's World Cup, Canada-Sweden. I dont think it has ever been this easy to select a team to cheer when Finland is not playing

I’m not a huge football fan but I like watching international tournaments. I almost enjoy the women’s game more. I find they tend to run through tackles more, dive less. Not to mention Canada is actually relevant lol

I actually watch and like almost any sport there is, as long as the TV production is at least somewhat ok. Rugby is one of my new favourites, snooker is great, darts is entertaining, I have MLB and NFL to watch if there's nothing else and the national broadcasting company has upped their sports game by starting to give screen time for not so popular sports.
