Sounds like votes are open just a little bit longer if you didn’t yet get your #thevizzies nominations in yet! A great way to reflect on a year of cool content and those that have helped you or others in the Tableau community 🗳️.

Ok, #datafam, this is you last call for #thevizzies nominations, I've taken a look at the data and in most categories there are only a handful of votes in it, so use them before you loose them. Who will win at #tc25 #tableau

A “better” LOD equivalent of RANK / INDEX in #Tableau, using spatial functions 🗺️. I hope you never have to use it in a production dashboard 😬, but it’s a fun ongoing challenge! 🤓

Can you share some deets on unfinished Tableau projects #datafam? We all see the wealth of amazing published and shared work… but how many awesome ideas never see the light of day? @hthr_cox and I are keen to hear more, and we think it could really help the community!.

What @Tableau experiments have the #datafam started but abandoned because the idea didn't work? Have you started something, but shelved it as a failure? A current investigation has me wondering what we can learn from each other by sharing what didn't work.

#PreppinData 2024 wk 13, and … that’s a solid quarter done on @Tableau Prep! What to do next quarter? Weighing up Tableau data dev, or Pulse perhaps? Reflections on the quarter of Prep: Thx to the Prep crew and participants; a great way to learn! 🙏🏼🤓

#PreppinData 2024 wk 12. Fun times with different settings for “new rows”. Less fun times with compounding interest; a bit too much like real work! I’ve done something wrong / different re interest, and took a shortcut on the join it seems 😬

#PreppinData 2024 wk 11: what if there were 13 months in a year? Turns out there wouldn’t be! But it was fun using @tableau prep to definitively calculate that the main extra month would be called Jumo (coincidentally slang for extremely drunk?). And the spare days… Extrember?

#PreppinData 2024 week 10. Great to try out the “New Rows” step / functionality in Tableau Prep this week to easily fill in missing dates!

Hey #datafam, part 2: a better way to transform “field per line” data in Tableau Prep. Using a record number calc and pivot (rows to columns).

#PreppinData 2024 wk 9, and I figured I’d better give the #prep1stepclub a go after writing about it last week! Definitely a different way to think about the problem, and the flow is harder to understand / maintain… but fun! Some non-deterministic sort order diffs 🤷🏽‍♂️

#PreppinData 2024. Week 8’s what if analysis turned into “what if I totally out think this estimated flights per year calc”. Numbers matched once I simplified it 🤦🏽 I enjoyed the gradual expansion to then roll up to the summary.
