Since #ICE Agents are wearing masks & refusing to identify themselves, there has been a flood of criminals & vigilantes masquerading as ICE agents invading homes and entering places of business, #kidnapping, #robbing and even sexually assaulting immigrants.

When a lawless government uses illegal tactics to force their will, they give cover to criminals who will copy them to #commit crimes of their own.

*Who* exactly are the #criminals here that need to be #deported?

#proTip: When you open a file of #code to edit it, fill in the #commitMessage with the goal of the changes you want to make in your #versionControl interface.

After you make your changes, only "Add" the changes necessary to accomplish the goal in the commit message; anything else should go in a separate #commit.

This keeps you focused on the task, and prevents your #commits from getting polluted with unrelated work that may confuse #codeReview.

PSA: To give me at least a little bit of insight, I've started using the open source, privacy-friendly and non-tracking goatcounter.com/ for all important thi.ng related sites/materials, incl. examples & API docs... This will allow me to see which parts are frequented most and help me to (re)focus attention.

Related, the attached heatmap[1] of 6+ years of commits to the thi.ng/umbrella monorepo (8480 filtered commits, split by sub-project (rows)) shows that documentation, example projects and build infrastructure have been the most regularly maintained/updated parts throughout all these years. But the project is so vast that many docs still have miles to go to improve, but time is precious and the counter will help me to identify potential weak points (and vice versa)...

[1] Alt text with more info. I also recommend to open the image in a new window and zooming in... The heatmap is generated by this example project: github.com/thi-ng/umbrella/tre

Btw. An interactive SVG version of this heatmap (incl. clickable links to each sub-project) is on the main thi.ng website...

Hey #PowerBI peeps, I'll be on #ToolTalk with Artur König and @mthierba on Tuesday, March 21st.

We'll be talking about a little #ExternalTool I wrote for #PowerBIDesktop called #PbiToolsWatchPS, which launches a #PowerShell window running #pbitools in #WatchMode on the current #pbix file. The purpose of this little tool is to minimize the effort and number of steps necessary to #commit changes to Power BI #reports and #datasets into a proper #VersionControl system like #GitHub, #AzureDevOps, etc.

Please join us #LIVE on Tuesday, March 21st, give us your thoughts about the current state of #CICD and #DevOps / #DataOps for Power BI, and tell us about your favorite #ToolsOfTheTrade!
