A paragraph from Redemption Road: A Novel, by John Hart:




People filed out. The big patrolman waited until the end and brushed Elizabeth with a shoulder as he passed. The contact was swift, but she felt it all the way down, a large man using his size. She watched him go.

  • Normally you'd expect it to be stated what she felt it down. We just have to guess. Maybe it's her arm, or her whole body? I wouldn't bother guessing; I'd just put it down to poor writing.

How to ignore python UserWarning in pytest?

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?
