I've been doing some practice assessments this morning for certifications.
Some of the questions in the DP-700 seemed vague.
I thought I'd take a look at some of the other ones for comparison.
Some assessments have definitely had more effort put into their development than others.

I've never liked the [bronze, silver, gold] medallion architecture naming.
I think [raw, refined, trusted] is better. (Sorts alphabetically too.)
What other options do you like?

Hey @alper.datav.is - do you know if there are any issues with custom themes in the latest #PowerBI Desktop release?
I get errors when trying to import, so, as a test, I saved the theme from an existing report and tried to re-import and I got the same errors.

Hey @myersmiguel.bsky.social, do you know when custom fonts added via a theme file stopped showing in the drop-down boxes in #PowerBI Desktop?
Are there plans to improve this aspect?

I'm sure it used to be possible in #PowerBI to have different naming in the selection pane for a visual from the title of the visual.
Am I going crazy?

Is there a definitive list of sources anywhere that support query folding in #PowerBI? I've found some but not sure if it's "complete".
Oh wait, @itsnotaboutthecell.com will know.

#MicrosoftFabric workarounds r us. (and no, I don't think this is a suitable workaround)
I'm curious, are people using Lakehouse SQL endpoints in pipelines when building a medallion architecture? How are you dealing with potential sync issues? How are you validating the results?

No #MicrosoftFabric I don't want to do this and why would you ask me on a Workspace that has a #PowerBI Pro license setup? Many of our customers don't want Fabric; it's not cost-effective for them.
Offer PPU licenses something if you're not going to finish the work you started with Datamarts.

This is brilliant from the #PowerBI Core Visuals team. We need this for all areas of PowerBI/Fabric. Share it around.
Interested in the future of #dataviz in #PowerBI?!?
