According to Docker Desktop, I've been working on this workshop for a long time. People have always said "I am ahead of the times", in this case, ahead of when I was born.

Mental note. Don't close Visual Studio Code while you have Terminal open and agents, like Squad, actively working.

Been playing around with Squads this weekend. "It" has been in my code base for 3 days now. Today I asked the Squad 2 review the code base and make recommendations. It came out with 55 recommendations, all good. It then asked if I wanted them in sprints. Sure. The names for the sprints are brutal! 😀

Working on my demos for my next conference and it looks like I have to ensure my Jobs tab in Azure Pipelines is sized a little bit better. The step should be "Package up the Assembly"

Azure Pipeline build pipeline is not sized properly for the Package up the Assembly step.
