• Tell HN: Correct Result for "Google Books" in Bing but Not in Google

  Searching for "google books" in google leads to https://books.google.com/ which no longer allows you to read any of your books. https://play.google.com/books is the site to read your purchased books now. Google search does not show https://play.google.com/books in its results at all. Thought it was some weird personalization quirk, but seems others have had the same issue:... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Google Play Books is down for uploaded books

  I'm hoping that it's just some kind of server outage but it's been down since around 7pm yesterday. https://play.google.com/books. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• How to get Docs on Kindle Cloud Reader?

  It’s not ideal, but you can try using Google Play Books in your internet browser to read your ePub files. The URL is https://play.google.com/books and there doesn’t seem to be a limit to how many files you can upload. I use it as a way to back up all my files to the cloud as well as to read on computers where I don’t want to have to download any programs. Source: about 1 year ago

• The only Quran app that work in dual screen mood in Duo

  You do have to cloud upload it and then it syncs to all your devices. Which also means you can use play.google.com/books on your PC and mass-upload all your books. Source: about 1 year ago

• Physical or digital for light novels? Longevity?

  In general, the best solution for ensuring that you have your books (and have them in good condition) in the long run is to buy digital books and then remove the DRM (assuming that you can't buy them DRM-free in the first place, though most publishers don't do that). You can then back up the files however you like to ensure that they stick around. Unfortunately, that's becoming much harder to do with Kindle books... Source: over 1 year ago

• Tableau Certified Data Analyst Exam Readiness

  Hey everyone, I'm interested in taking the Tableau Certified Data Analyst Exam Readiness course through tableau.com to prepare and get Tableau certified. I had some questions about the course, such as are the videos pre recorded or in person, do you have access to the material once the 90 days expire, and I was also wondering if anyone had input/advice for this course. Thanks! Source: 11 months ago

• Where to publish knowledge sharing on Tableau reverse engineering and data dictionary generation?

  Could anyone recommend what media I should approach to publish my work (internet or print). I could try the Tableau forum in tableau.com but it's not very active + Tableau may be unappreciative as my work overlaps with their (pricey) data management solution. Plus it needs to be some high visibility / reputable media to count for my career development. Any recommendations welcome thanks!!! Source: over 1 year ago

• I have huge loads of data in Redshift. How can I make this available to end-users after performing few procs and queries? It should be available online.

  Tableau public: tableau.com. Big player but your data will be made public and not really user-friendly data model. Source: over 2 years ago

• What tips do you have on evaluating various BI tools for business needs? What are the essential criteria's you would include when evaluating different tools? The goal is to have an unbiased, objective approach.

  For example, we have a project to compare Tableau, Power BI, and InetSoft. The need for strong pagination-based email delivery eliminated Tableau. AWS's Linux instance is the targeted platform which makes Power BI less than ideal. Source: over 2 years ago

• Anyone go into Data Analytics after this program?

  I just started learning Tableau because our dept is transitioning into Tableau from Power BI. Since I already have years of experience with Power BI I just went over their tutorials from tableau.com and got onboarded pretty quick. I'm still learning it but I'm at least able to build out reports and get things done. Its not too difficult to pickup one BI tool when you have experience with another. Source: over 2 years ago
