I've been exploring PowerShell with Graph API recently. Amongst many things, I wrote a script to streamline PIM activation - obviously needs to be used in full awareness (and so aggressively that it defeats the point of PIM 🤔) - but might be handy 😉.

Now that the GSAP animation library is free, I took the opportunity to sprinkle a few effects over the band's website - just for fun (well you've got to haven't you) 😀 outoforderband.co.uk

office365itpros.com/2025/04/14/m... Brilliant article from Tony Redmond - as someone who has been caught many times by this authentication incompatibility with Azure Runbooks, I for one welcome this constructive criticism and hopefully improved way forward 🤞
Microsoft Attempts to Fix Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK
V2.26 and V2.26.1 of the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK were low-quality, buggy disasters. Microsoft aims to fix the problem in the next version.

With Powershell I've often wondered why if you have a string array that only returns a single item, it ceases to be an array and silently converts to a string losing the array properties such as "count" - I can only assume this was some historical performance benefit, but still rather annoying 😉

Saddened to hear of the passing of Rick Butler - "The Jam" (along with Madness) were THE group that inspired me want to play in bands - a joy and a journey I've been on ever since - we'll be playing some Jam numbers this Sunday with even more vigour 🥁

An absolutely fantastic gig last night 🎶 We even managed to sneak some keyboards in this time. Here’s a clip of Jude (from liquor-ish.co.uk) jumping up to join us on the keys. 🎹

We wrapped with a fun rendition of Night Boat to Cairo complete with some top-tier Nutty dancing from the crowd 😎🎹

@richcampbell.bsky.social - absolutely loved the KQL show on RunAs - just curious as to whether I was in line for a copy of the book - I believe I was the second commenter 😉 - much appreciated 👍

I found this fascinating - whilst I can't claim that my mind was fully focused to the end 😂 I did find the process and decompilation steps interesting - breaking down what initially looks like a ridiculously terse line of code into someone reasonably understandable 🤔 wasmgroundup.com/blog/wasm-co...

Starting with a 192-byte one-liner that implements a Reverse Polish Notation arithmetic compiler, we'll work backward to transform it into readable JavaScript by removing one code golf trick at a time
