Yeah, ('m in platform engineering, trying to help out). They've been using old (.NET Framework) SqlProj (in VS on Windows), and ignoring the SDK projects (as far as they're concerned, they're still in preview). We've moved to .NET core and Linux containers, but the SQL projects are... stuck.

What do people use for database schema/migration projects? Anyone know what the status of SDK-style SqlProj actually is? It seems they're supported in VS Code (but without tests?) still "preview" in VS2022, don't exist at all in VS2026... Are these "coming soon" or abandon-ware?

They're all wrong. Let me tell you the real story about… It feels like I daily see people in their social media echo chambers deriding majority opinions about AI, politics, economics, government, and even science without citations or sources, just the certainty that some folks agree with them. Why?

So, with Azure CDNs and Front Door all still locked down since their outage last week, what's the over/under on this being something that was vibe coded, and there's nobody available who understands it anymore?

Accurate.

For a CLI parser library, generating help is a given, why not completion script generation? Argsparse, climate & optparse do (only for bash, zsh & fish). Well, if you're writing in TypeScript, Optique now has one, and it covers bash, zsh, fish, PowerShell, and Nushell! optique.dev/concepts/com...

Talk Of Fascism Dangerous, Warns Ministry Of Compliance

When I was fighting in Iraq & Afghanistan, I needed to know that journalists could ask tough questions to hold those in power accountable. It's a dangerous moment when our leaders require the press to self-censor their reporting, or face punishment. Free speech is under attack.

I definitely don't have problems with emoji. They can be extremely succinct when used properly, E.g. Using ✅⚠️❌ as status icons in lists of output. Why do you think all the terminals (and business apps) are adding support for emoji?

PowerShell in CI/CD Pipelines: A Practical Tour of Deployment Options by Blake Cherry, Danny Stutz

Explore the diverse ways to deploy PowerShell scripts using DevOps continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines! This session will investigate the options for running PowerShell in CI/CD processes. We'll start by discussing when and why you might want to incorporate PowerShell into your CI/CD pipelines, highlighting the benefits of automation, consistency, and efficiency in deployment workflows. Next, we'll delve into various methods of deploying PowerShell within pipelines, including: • Locally on Build Agents: Running scripts directly on the pipeline's host machine. • Azure PowerShell DevOps Tasks: Utilizing built-in tasks for seamless integration with Azure services. • Containers and Custom Dockerfiles: Exploring available PowerShell container images, considerations for modules requiring authentication, and best practices for creating custom Dockerfiles tailored to your needs. We'll also compare the capabilities of different CI/CD platforms for running PowerShell, such as Azure DevOps, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and GitLab. We'll discuss: • Platform Differences: How each platform handles PowerShell execution via pipeline. • Selection Criteria: Factors influencing the choice of platform for your specific use case. • Advantages and Limitations: Understanding the strengths of each platform in the context of PowerShell deployment. Additionally, we'll explore how PowerShell can be integrated with other DevOps tools like Terraform and Ansible, discussing key considerations and best practices for these scenarios. By the end of this session, you'll have a comprehensive understanding of the options available for deploying PowerShell via pipelines and how to choose the best approach for your projects.

“The data center industry is booming all over,” and utilities across the country are polluting more to meet data center energy demands, all when scientists agree that cutting fossil fuel emissions is more urgent than ever.

Georgia was about to retire coal plants. Then came the data centers.
