Think of your Fabric Capacity like a Train. 

Licensing is the #1 confusion point I see with Microsoft Fabric.

You bought a capacity, but your team still gets "Upgrade to Pro" prompts. 

Why?

It helps to visualise it like a Commuter Rail System:

🎫 The Small Train (F2 - F32): Everyone needs an individual ticket (Pro License) to board and look out the window (view reports). It doesn't matter if you own the train; the passengers still need to pay.

🚄 The High-Speed Rail (F64+): This train is so large that the "Venue" subsidises the cost. Standard Pass holders (Free Users) can ride for free just to look out the windows. This is the "F64 Magic Number."

👮 The Conductor Rule: Regardless of the train size, you always need a special license (Pro) to actually drive the train or manage the passengers (share content/workspaces).

I created this cheat sheet to break down the 3 building blocks of Fabric licensing:

1. Capacity (The Engine): Your computing power.
2. Per-User (The Driver): The Pro/PPU seats.
3. The F64 Rule: When free users can finally see content.

Save this image. It will save you from overpaying for Pro licenses you might not need.

Is DENEB an incredible tool for Power BI?
Yes it is. This report took 4 prompts to make.

Granted, I'm just testing thigns out
But VEGA is just so suited for LLMs it's crazy

You should check out what some of these guys have been doing with LLMs and VEGA ⤵️

I decided to rebuild this report from the afternoon


A report for policy makers to help decide on investments and policies
Should really put the policies first, not make them a footnote.

So the new version reflects that.

Which do you prefer, this one - or the previoust one?

Power BI World championships are back!
Here's week 1:

Audience: City planners, policy analysts, and community stakeholders.
What are they trying to do?
- Compare Briarport's performance against peer cities.
- Identify pros/cons in housing, transit, green space, and emissions.
- Use insights to inform urban planning decisions, prioritize investments, and communicate livability improvements to the public.

So clearly, the most important here are potential policies and their effects on these 4 livability KPIs and the LivabilityComposite score.

To make this effective, you can choose different policies to see how much the cost and effect would be. 

(thought of that one time where you were talking about video game UI Kurt Buhler)

Still a few hours left to shift things around :)
