As contraception was / is something the church said to not use for a very long time.

If they stated that, they'd have another legal problem on their hands. NJ has no state religion and cannot have a religious body overseeing the law.

But religious families could have complained that the banner was trampling on their religion is my point.

I agree it was wrong for the school to even threaten expulsion for it.

People can complain for any reason. Schools (and other public institutions) cannot legally allow "complaints" to override rights.

And no rights were overridden, there was obviously the threat of it though.

Threatening to break the law is itself illegal.

However, my original point was about if expulsion was actually imminent or not. Not that it wasn't threatened. I might threaten all kinds of things that I have no intention of doing. Like how my daughter threatens to never eat again... but breaks down the next meal time.

SW had a post about how BI is rampant in the SMB and used at like 30% of companies and they wanted to know what tools people saw. I said I'd never see that in any SMB and asked what use cases were being seen.... instead of responding they deleted the thread. Argh.

I can still see that thread... or maybe it is a different one.

I'm thinking of the pharmaceutical company Boehringer Ingelheim

@Minion-Queen Oh yeah SMB's don't have BI.

Not true at all. One of the things our company does is assist with BI reporting.

It is certainly limited to more forward thinking SMB and that would be more like 5% or less. Certainly not any stupid high number like 30%.

What kind of BI use cases are you seeing?

In the SMB, it is typically just getting real time & historical reporting setup on whatever the business goals are, along with some KPI info.

I guess I see this regularly, but it's so common and old that I don't think of it as BI

It is pretty much the bare minimum, but it is BI.

Yeah, I get it now. Once you mentioned KPI... we run KPI SaaS for some of our big customers. We build the databases, reporting interfaces, data collection systems, etc. ourselves. So we don't think of it as BI because we use no BI tools and have been doing this one particular task since the 1990s. But, of course, it is a form of BI. In a way, just about everything is.
