Validate Your Learning Account for Microsoft Fabric



Introduction

Welcome to the guide on learning Microsoft Power BI and Fabric using a Microsoft School account. In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps to set up and validate your learning account, providing valuable insights and cautions along the way.

Steps to Validate Your Learning Account

1. With existing personal account, register for learner's privileges



2. Creating a Learning Instance

  • After registration, create a learning instance on Microsoft.
  • This instance establishes an enterprise structure for up to nine users, with the creator being the system administrator.


3. Accessing Power BI and Fabric Services

  • Use the administrator email provided by the learning instance to log in to Power BI and Fabric services.
  • Note that the instance is temporary and will be destroyed within 90 days.

Cautions

  • Any Data Science-related data created within the learning instance will be deleted when the instance is destroyed.
  • Consider saving your learning progress separately in your personal account for safety.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You are now set to explore and learn Microsoft Power BI and Fabric using your Microsoft School account. Remember to follow the cautions and make the most out of your learning journey!

Guide to Preserving HuggingFace Models in Google Colab Environments

Conclusion:  Step 1:  find the model path: ls ~/.cache  Step 2:  Copy the entire folder to Google Drive:  Step 3:  Set model path to the subfolder under snapshot: My Story: I initially began exploring Generative AI (GAI) and Google Colab through Stable Diffusion. In the past, as I mainly wrote server services and console applications, I was less familiar with data science modes like R and Jupyter that can maintain a paused state. I didn't quite understand the heavy burden on Colab of creating a temporary Stable Diffusion WebUI with .ipynb, as suggested by popular guides. I just found it troublesome that connections often took a long time and then dropped, requiring a restart. Recently, while testing new versions of the Stable Diffusion model, and facing challenges due to Colab's policies making various versions of WebUI difficult to run successfully, I started researching how to write my own test programs in Colab. Eventually, I understood that Colab is ess...

Bookmark service (MongoDB & Spring REST) -2/2

    I accidentally deleted my development VM. I got lucky having the habit of taking notes. This blog is useful. Development VM is doom to be lost. Rebuild it waste time, but having a clean slate is refreshing~. What concerns me more is my AWS free quota this month is reaching 85%. The second VM I launched but never being used might be the one to blame. (Of course, my mistake.) I terminated the wrong VM. Now I got Linux 2 built. Great, just threw away everything happened on AMI.  1st layer: Page Page class   Originally, I need to prepare getter/setter for all class properties for Spring. By using lombok, I only need to create constructors. lombok will deal with getter/setter and toString(). But there are chances to call getter/setter, but how? .......Naming convention.... Capitalize the 1st character with the prefix get/set.  Annotation @Data was used on this class.  Repository class Spring Docs: Repository https://docs.spring.io/spring-data/mongodb/docs/3....
