Was in too much shock to post this yesterday. I was demoing how to setup a Dev Drive for ~25% perf improvement, & while cleaning it up at the end of the demo I accidentally deleted my real Dev Drive instead of the dummy one I created for the demo. All local code gone! How's your day going? 😅

All it took was 5 💖s to convince me to write the blog 😄. Here you go: blog.danskingdom.com/Host-website...

I use #Jekyll (static site generator) and #GitHub Pages to host my blog for free. I figured out how to host PR previews with their own public URL for free on GitHub Pages (no 3rd party host needed), so I can preview what the PR site would look like. Give a 💖 if you'd like a blog of how I did this

Brilliant idea!

Had a great week of learning at #MVPSummit. Chatted with old friends and made some new ones. Already looking forward to doing it again next year. Now taking a break in the sunshine (finally got sun on the last day!) before playing with the new shiny stuff later.

⚠️ If you maintain Azure DevOps extensions, be careful with the unpublish/delete function. Once deleted, you cannot republish extensions anymore. This change was silently announced here and activated today. github.com/microsoft/vs...

Booo, Air Canada cancelled my connecting flight while I was mid-flight, so now I have an 11 hour layover and will miss the entire #MVPSummit pre-day 😞 Still looking forward so connecting with other MVPs the rest of the week tho

Your PowerShell is probably full of stale Az modules. I just fixed that. You can now uninstall and clean up all Az modules in one go! Plus there’s a new Uninstall-All cmdlet that removes a stack of Microsoft modules safely. Stop fighting version conflicts 🤩 Get it 👉 uninstall-graph.meri...

At work we need to publish a PowerShell module but didn't want to deal with PSGallery tokens and more permissions we need to audit over time. I've tried out GitHub Container/OCI and Nuget feeds as well as Azure Artifacts. github.com/jborean93/Po... TLDR: Use Azure Artifacts.

A nice reinforcement that AI tools are an accelerator and the quality of the code they generate depends on the person using them. The human in the loop still very much matters. Competent engineers can use AI tools to move faster without generating slop.

I appreciate that MS #Teams shows how many people have already joined the meeting before I join. It allows me to avoid joining when there's only 1 other person and having to make small talk until others join on days when I'm not feeling chatty.

It takes very little effort to incorporate the pwshSpectreConsole module into your #PowerShell daily routine.

I'm surprised how many devs don't use a #markdown linter. Nearly every time I open someone's .md, my linter has squiggles everywhere. It usually still renders correctly though, so does it really matter? Debating just uninstalling my linter. Do you lint? marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemNa...
