If you were at #DirectionsEMEA today, you can't have missed the the #msdyn365bc MCP Server. If not, you still might have heard about it. I couldn't resist to immediately give it a spin and here are my notes on how to use it with @vscode.dev or @docker.com's cagent: tobiasfenster.io/using-the-bu...

Very different conferences, very different audiences, but also very much fun at all of those events!
To finish that stretch, I had the chance to visit Microsoft in Lyngby for the #msdyn365bc MVP Summit with a ton of highly interesting information and networking.

Being active as a speaker and member of community programs comes with quite a bit of work and it certainly can be exhausting, but it also gives a lot of energy and pleasure. I recently had the chance to speak at DynamicsMinds, European BizApps and AI & Cloud Summit as well as @bctechdays.com.

Great news, I got renewed as Docker Captain 🎉 Since 2022 when I was first awarded, so much has happened and Docker changed a lot, but it consistently is an amazing experience to be part of that program. Thanks a lot to Docker and especially Eva Bojorges! On to hopefully many more years 😊

@docker.com Desktop has a new feature called Docker Model Runner which allows you to very easily run AI models locally. With the next version 4.42, it will support (more) Windows laptops and I had a chance to test a pre-release version. You can find the results here tobiasfenster.io/docker-ai-mo...

Ich verstehe es so: Der Vierervergleich ergibt 1. CHE (4:2), 2./3. WUE / HDB (je 3:3), 4. BER (2:4). Daher ist CHE fix 1, BER fix 4. Danach wird der Zweiervergleich HDB / WUE aufgemacht. Da ist es 1:1, aber HDB ist wegen des Korbverhältnis vorn. D.h. ich denke der Dreiervergleich wird nicht gemacht
