    The podcast has covered tools, process, and workflows in previous episodes, but not like this episode. Taking the idea of "Virtuous Waste", which is either personally or from an organizational standpoint the idea that certain tasks and processes are essential or good to continue yet could easily be eliminated and automated in a better fashion. Think of scrubbing and cleaning an CSV file every week for a client, it must be done for the report, therefore it is "virtuous work". Yet these types of mundane tasks take up time that could easily be converted or eliminated entirely. Lees meer

    Mike, Seth, and Tommy go head-on with the state of Custom Visuals in Power BI. Power BI Custom Visuals have been available since October 2015, with Microsoft providing developer tools, a visual gallery, and the ability to import them into desktop and the service. The community was buzzing, and the potential seemed limitless. Lees meer

    Fast forward to today: with over 330 Custom Visuals available in the Microsoft AppSource and countless others available on GitHub, what is the experience of using, developing, and discovering Custom Visuals for a Power BI Pro? With over 5 years of Custom Visuals, are they meeting the expectations and has the overall product matured from the launch in 2015?

    The guys get heated over what it means to need a visual outside of the standard ones provided, what is lacking in the experience to find a Custom Visual to suit their needs, and what is frustrating when trying to configure a Custom Visual in their reports. Finally, where would they put their money to make the experience better for developers, pros, and users?
