What is it, named or called? [on hold]












0














It seems to me that there has been a move away from named when identifying someone - like in a news report.



Named seems more precise - I would use called with a nickname - i.e. A man called Rocky or Butch.

    I think you'll need to be more specific about what your question is - at the moment you've typed two statements, neither of which is a question.

Saying someone us called by a name C allows one to provide either the given name, or a nickname (like “Rocky,” “Butch,” or “The Mooch”), whereas saying someone is named with a name N would normally mean it is their legal name.

            What visual should I use to simply compare current year value vs last year in Power BI desktop

            Image
            0 I have column SubToBind that shows current year ratio and column PY SubToBind which shows previous year ratio. How can I simply create a card that would be displaying them both in a nice way? Something like that: I cannot achieve that with regular card, I also tried Card with States by OKViz but also unable to see both values. In KPI visual - I dont like the word "Goal", it will confuse end users. Are there any cards or other visuals that would do the job?

Is there a nice way to tell the pytest that "It's not a bug it's a feature" and tests should pass even when they get this warning? Is there other way than using something like: with pytest.warns(UserWarning): ...
