Something I hear from colleagues a lot is "I use AI and (insert comment about disappointment)". But I've noticed all of the AI services have improved incrementally in many ways. Quality of results. Accuracy. Intuition. Self assessment and correction. So, don't walk away from it. Keep testing it.

Why should I need to replicate #entra sign-in data to Log Analytics, or have Sentinel etc in order to query it with #kusto? That seems like duct tape and condoms. That graph info should be directly accessible from kusto. Dammit, where's my flying car?!

Why does my "wi-fi enabled" appliance with the digital control panel still require me to set the clock manually? That is so many zip codes beyond stupidville.

I've shared the ways I'm using the PSBlueSky #PowerShell module in the repo's Discussion section. How are you using the module?

I nodded off during lunch and had a weird dream that #ServiceNow added a progress indicator. Phew! What a weird dream.

Obsidian is a very cool note-taking app, but I'm really surprised I can't select a list and "sort" lines of text.

A lot of #azure users forget about Log Analytics data costs. If you go to a workspace, then "Usage and estimated costs", then at the top "Usage details" it takes you to a page with example queries to view data usage with charts, etc. Or go here learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/...
Analyze usage in a Log Analytics workspace in Azure Monitor - Azure Monitor
Methods and queries to analyze the data in your Log Analytics workspace to help you understand usage and potential cause for high usage.

Still 2 years to go on my $5 bet that AD will be "functionally deprecated in favor of Entra" (or whatever it's called in 2027) as the SOA. The one MS person in the room was the only one that didn't laugh it off (thank you! btw). Start the drum roll... youtube.com/shorts/i77Tj...

#powershell module "linuxtools" 1.1.7 has been posted to the PS Gallery. Carefully massaged Wagu-style with Mozart playing, and incense burning next to the gong collection in the mountain temple. Gentle RATM music playing. www.powershellgallery.com/packages/lin...
linuxtools 1.1.7
An experimental PowerShell module for Linux nerds. A bit Debian/Cinnamon focused, but no reason to limit this. Because: why not?

I wish all Linux commands could support at least one common output format, like JSON. Not the only output format. Just that it includes one that is common across all and is easier to parse. I also wish we could cure cancer and world hunger, but it's baby steps for now. :)

Just saying:

I really wish that #OBS supported the browser source on #RaspberryPi (and that it would run without magic environment variables).

My favorite feature of @amazon shopping is clicking "16 GB" on the memory selector and the entire first page of results are 4 GB and 8 GB. This is why we won't be able to stop the asteroid before it wipes out the planet.

I think my ideal day would be (every day) to wake up in daylight saving time, and go to bed in standard time. I think that could work. Make lunch time the "fall back" hour.
