I like breaking things to figure out how they work. Some times I also like putting then back together so they actually work again.

The more I dig in #msgraph the stranger it gets. Like what:
"The type of the request. Use adminAdd to add a resource, if the caller is an administrator or resource owner, adminUpdate to update a resource, or adminRemove to remove a resource."
Why not just use HTTP POST, PATCH and DELETE? 🤷♂️

yes, yes, it might be dangerous to push to prod on a Friday, but have you tried eating something with red sauce while wearing a white t-shirt?

nice! preview of the new msgraph provider for Terraform is available: github.com/microsoft/te...
The provider is similar to azapi and act as a thin wrapper on top of the msgraph rest api. Which means we can now use Terraform for a lot of configuration that is missing from terraform-provider-azuread

Having a monday off work is dangerous. Before you know it you have decided your summer vacation plans needs improvement and booked flights, train and hotels for a couple of days in London before catching the final stage of Tour de France in Paris 💸

I like opentofu/terraform, but trying to navigate around both open issues and missing features in the various ways you can implement privileged identity management in azure/entra id is not a very nice experience

Aah, hello there Seattle travel karma. Last time I got stuck in Reykjavik for a night (far from the worst city to be stuck in). And today: www.bbc.com/news/article... #mvpbuzz

It comes in response to a "significant" outage linked to a fire at a nearby electrical substation.
