Fascinating take on #MicrosoftFabric from @SimonNuss who has been part of our journey for the last 18m from concept to public preview.

Thanks to Simon and @HitachiSolUS @HitachiSolCa for the partnership.

@dblizzy If you're just passing through I think it's fine. I would frown upon taking any outside food/beverage into another place if you're going to stay without making a purchase.

Then again I've never been to Syracuse.

Don't like the standard PowerShell Terminal in VS Code? Select the dropdown at the top right of your terminal and click "Select Default Shell" then pick your terminal of choice (I like Git Bash for Windows). Click the "+", and a new terminal will open with your selection!

@taniarascia I was a chef for 12 years and was burning out. Switched to kitchen appliance sales for a more normal work/life balance while teaching myself to code. I'm now a React developer on a UX team.
