I wrote a blog about troubleshooting #PowerPlatform (or anything, really) It turned into a manifesto on emotional chaos, ego, and talking to a duck in a Starfleet uniform. Somehow… it makes sense. www.michaelroth42.com/post/2025-05... #Debugging #AdminLife #TechFeelings

How do you troubleshoot when things break? 🧩 I’ve got Geordi la Quack (yes, a Starfleet rubber duck) judging me until I fix it. But I’m curious—what are your go-to tricks, tools, or mindsets when debugging weird stuff? #RubberDuckDebugging #PowerPlatform #AdminLife

Bridge day: too lazy to work, too guilty to nap. So I wrote a blog instead. How to turn a managed Power Platform environment into an unmanaged one (on purpose!). If you’re into rebellious admin moves, check it out: www.michaelroth42.com/post/2025-04... #PowerPlatform #ChaosWithACause

Book recommendation anyone? 🌍 With pandemics, fires, wars, and a general shift to the right, it’s tough reading the news these days. But this book gives me hope: “an antidote to despair and a road map to a better future.” 🥰 But how to break it down into simple actions for everyday life.🤔

Michael42 @michael42.bsky.social · 16/01/2025
That’s a good point. Arguments on social media never stop, so rather than me burning out arguing with trolls, I prefer to focus on what I can change and do. Show, don’t tell. This will attract people who want to discuss, think and listen. At least that’s my experience 🙂

Unfortunately we can't customize it that much, yet it's a great help for users. And of course it helps if you have a clear documentation about DLP's in general 😉

I face a similar decision. Next to the flight, there’s also accommodation, getting around and food. It’s a costly trip and last year was good and fun. But my employer paid for most of it 😅 I may open a call for a shared AirBnB soon 😁
