BigQuery newbie here, trying to get comfortable and learn the ins and outs of the console.
The bigquery-public-data project contains 5 datasets starting with austin as shown below.
However, when I search, only one is returned as shown below.
I can guess that perhaps permissions are in play, however, I compared the permissions between the datasets and nothing is jumping out of me.
Can someone explain where I can look to understand what is happening?

I'm looking to play around with various cube data to better understand it. I've also created a few of my own to play around with, but it's quite tedious to do, especially with saving the tables/views into the cube.
Other than Adventure Works, are there any data sets that I can download to play around with? I've been having a hard time finding any of these via Google, MSDN, etc. I'm open to whatever!
In this github link you will find 2 sample databases other than Adventure Works wich are
wide-world-importers.

I've found slightly relevant posts here: SQL Schedule Calendar
and here: SQL Scheduling - Overbooked Report
But these are really based on retrieving from tables, I'm looking to create a table or tables. Even if you can just help me out with what to google for help. Unfortunately I'm trying to create what I would call a schedule, but since the word schedule is already used for something else in SQL it is hard to google.
A few bits of background info:
1 - I would like to use SQL, as I have a tiny bit of knowledge about using it to retrieve data (never created tables or designed databases, just retrieved), though I open to other suggestions if something better or easier than SQL can do the job.
2 - based on limited research, I like the idea of SQLite - again, open to suggestion
3 - this will be interrogated by a Python program on a Raspberry Pi which will turn the lights on and off using GPIO
There are a lot of demands below, but this is a learning process, I'm using this toy project to teach myself Raspberry Pi, Python, SQL, and probably PHP one day. So I really appreciate any help, be it code snippets or simply just pointing me toward resources that will help me learn. I'm quite new to this forum so I hope I'm behaving!
This is a picture of what I'm trying to achieve, its basically a schedule for turning security lights on and off:
Sample of calendar output
This is Excel, and this table has some obvious limitations. Here are some demands not currently met by this Excel table:
I would like to be able to have any "on" and "off" times, not just hour-long slots.
I would like to be able to have overlapping events.
I would like, ideally, to have events set for individual days, but also for "weekdays" and "weekends"
I would like to have temporary and permanent events - so ideally, a user can say "turn on from X time to Y every night this week" without affecting the permanent schedule.
I would like to easily expand "front" and "back" to any number of other lights (this is a very long-term demand but future proof and re-usability is nice)
Ultimately, I would like to have a web-based interface, where a user can easily log in and set a temporary or permanent change to the schedule.
Any help is hugely appreciated.
I need a way to search my entire Oracle database for a column that contains the value 'Beef'. What I need is the column name and table name so I can complete my query. Beef is an animal feed type and it is a known value in my database. I just don't know where.....
Essentially, we have a very old very clunky application that I am using SQL data sets generated from Toad freeware to get around. The application shows us laboratory testing information for our companies. The catch is you can only look at one company's lab report at a time, and as a I said, it takes FOREVER. We have over 700 companies we regulate so this is not an option (oh and you can't copy any of the fields).
I have already generated a query that gets me 99% of the information I need until I realized I was missing one column value that for some unearthly reason isn't included with the other attributes of the lab samples. We have around 100 or so tables and many of them aren't even in use. It's a poorly organized database and I've tried manually going through it and simply cannot find the stupid column and I have no idea what it could be named (naming conventions here seem not to apply).
A monkey wrench is: although I've done a decent amount of SQL coding for my job I'm not in IT. My job hooked me up with a read-only access of our database so I could run reports for them etc, but I'm not in the IT section so I don't get write privileges. So a lot of solutions I see that use DDL aren't available to me.
I guess it might be relevant, it looks like we're running oraClient10g.
I've tried this code that I got from here: community.Oracle
but as you can see I don't get any results.
I also tried the one suggested here at stackOverflow, but got a litany of errors so I abandoned that pretty quick. (I figured it's because of my read-only privileges and or my version of Oracle).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm making my project for a-level computing and I reached a problem that im not sure how to solve. Im making something similar to a student information management system and I want a way to store a small list of students maybe 5 to 10 preferably in my program and make reference to them from all forms and so that if something is changed on one of the students maybe a piece of information, that these information is carried to the next form. My teacher has very little knowledge on programming and so im kind of stuck, i have no previous experience with databases or sql however if someone is willing to break it down ill be very grateful and ive got a good understanding of arrays. My deadline is the 10th of may so asap please, thanks

If you prefer simplicity I would stick to a CSV file or XML. I found a website which an end-to-end tutorial on how to create the XML and add items (students) to it using VB.net as according to your tag. You need only after to read them from the file, but might just as well add new:
http://vb.net-informations.com/xml/how-to-xml-in-vb.net.htm
I would stick with XML (or CSV as preffered) as it is a text file basically so you can see and make changes directly if needed.
I'm looking someone who can help me with this issue, that seems very easy to achieve but there is no much information around the internet.
I'm working with MS Access and Visual Basic, and I would like to create a simple bar graph, giving params that I've already gathered from many querys.
In this case: A chart about Litres per Week. I have a query to gather the amount of litres of 4 different weeks. I also provide the information for the X Axis (Last week, Last two weeks, and so on.. ). It would look like this:
So I'm wondering if this can be done, as well a pie charts and line charts.
I'm aware that this can be easilly done with Excel, but I don't want open another program to read information.
Thank you very much.
How to make Charts in MS Access would be my first key word search :)
Then I will check on MSDN for proper tools/properties availability/updates on software and so on.
Here is a simple basic tutorial to follow
This is the entire google search that would provide you anything you want to check on the topic.
Please note the version of MS Access you are using against the tutorials described. In certain versions there are certain changes have been done to the software itself. You are much lucky if it's not 2007...
EDIT Based on the comments with OP:
Since OP has exhaustive/heavy queries, it's recommended to create a temp table based on the final query.
Then temp table can act as a view and become the data source for the Chart
dynamic binding of chart from database in VS2010 in C#
Bind query as a datasource to MS Access chart. There is a method called databindtable which is a chart property. You may use it:
e.g. chart1.DataBindTable(yoursource,columname)
This article provies a good sample code.
