Trolls, Features and Common Data problems. In this chaotic episode of Unpivot, the gang kicks things off with Halloween antics and quickly spirals into the wild world of Excel, Power BI, and internet comment drama. From TikTok trolls who think Power Pivot lives in Access (spoiler: it doesn’t) to debates about whether picking pumpkins is just muddy shopping, it’s a rollercoaster of laughs and learning.
They also dive into juicy new features like visual calcs, agent mode, and formula-by-example, and share their favourite ways to handle messy data, missing dates, and the eternal mystery of “what does sales actually mean?”
