I've done some minor stuff in MS PowerBI and PowerQuery/PowerPivot that I think meets your need. It's pretty nifty. https://powerbi.microsoft.com/ http://www.powerpivotpro.com/what…

Yes. Also, the upper limit on the dynamic range of the telephone network is somewhere around 3400 Hz, well within the range of human hearing. This protocol is designed to send data…

I'm on Windows 8 right now and I have a taskbar. Perhaps you were referring to the start button?

And don't let your kids at the sharpies.

Not the OP, but I would pick up a copy of Ethernet: the Definitive Guide. Then move on to TCP/IP Illustrated, 1&2.

Welcome to the world of government contracting. There was a requirement for two vendors, they got 5 proposals, they chose what they believed to be the best two, at the price the ve…

The real reason not to do this is that it makes you look like a scumbag. It's not in your interest to make that association in your customer's minds. For instance, I run a small da…
