today button in conditional column

Does anyone know if the today button here date change as the day changes .  Id like the conditional column to use TODAY()'s date or is that date selected hard coded and stays the same the next day.  Screenshot 2024-11-04 093625.png

For that kind of logic, it is easier to do it as a calculated column with DAX so you can actually leverage from TODAY() function. In Power Query it would be hardcoded, but you can leave a Date as a placeholder and modify the M code to use Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow()) to use "today's" date.
