    "We get good help, more happy people, and less money …

    I'm currently working on the final chapter of our book! It's the DevOps chapter, which for a while, I thought would probably be about LLMOps or GenAIOps. But I haven't found a way to apply those to me as a DevOps person.

    Incredible! I just used PowerShell and OpenAI to import text from a PDF right into SQL Server 🚀 AI's usefulness is often debated but this is such a great use-case. I also see it being useful for automatically adding SharePoint document metadata and cleaning dirty data.

    Using a new feature from OpenAI called …

    I don't know if you can tell but I'm having a ton of fun lately with AI. I prefer AI coding over manual coding because I can skip all the tedium and just communicate in my first language. Advanced things too, in languages I don't know well like TypeScript.

    I remember seeing a YouTube headline about a guy who built a …

    Last week, I had such a blast at PSConf.eu in gorgeous Antwerp, Belgium. It was my first in-person conference in FIVE YEARS! Literally, the last time I was at a conference was at Data Grillen in June 2019. There, I professed that I'd be taking a break from speaking. Little did I know :grimace:

    Browsing the internet, with all the EU cookie consents, has made the entire internet unusable.

    As a dedicated Chrome user, it didn't really occur to me give other browsers serious consideration. I only recently switched to Safari on the iPhone because it offered minimal blocking via a Safari extension in the app store. …
