A huge fucking question. I know I normally focus on OO stuff... and I wish I had more OO crap to ponder... but there's nothing really sticking in head recently... soo... other shit. I want to try and go weekly... I'm gonna slip to monthly though.…
OK, so - I've got the new version of MtgDiscovery up and I started doing more non-local work. My head-to-wall(and repeat) work with Azure B2C early into this project is coming roaring back. This time, APIM has joined the fight. Going to the App Service URL and…

Seems simple. Write-Host "##vso[task.setvariable variable=Resource.SystemIdentity;isSecret=false;isOutput=true;]$principalId"…
I'm entirely re-doing my infrastructure for the entirely re-doing of my Magic The Gathering Collection Tracking Site. I did it in powershell the first time, and it works. Mostly. It's clunky and there's some stuff Azure PowerShell can't do. I wrote about…
