Goodbye Twitter. I've used you exclusively for work-related stuff. In the last few days, you've shown me 5-8 posts related to my interests, followed by a plethora of unrellated Trump stuff I never ask for. Sorry, but that's not okay. You've just turned into a propaganda machine.

@KratosBi now if it came with PowerApps licences that could tap into Fabric Databases as a backend...

[Frederic Forest @FredericForest7]

@KratosBi I'm very perplex about this. I want to love it, but from someone who's used AZ SQL DB for nearly 15 years, I have a hard time seeing the diff (mirroring aside). The "all in one place" is nice, but AZ SQL DB is notoriously cheap, and Fabric notoriously isn't.

@LearnOffice365 boy am I gonna be excited when they make a modern version of that guy ^^

Starting to get an "Emperor's new clothes" feeling about this... #MSBuild

[Frederic Forest @FredericForest7]

hey @PowerApps, how do we report a bug? I'm not having much luck with forums. Direct calls to SQL procs seem broken with ALM. No biggie, it's in preview. But it's a showstopper on an awesome feature, so it'd be a shame if it's not adressed. https://t.co/ppauK29OBQ

@Datatouille @AmirNetz I'm not 100% sure it's a "good" news... 🤔

[Frederic Forest @FredericForest7]

@mattbdevaney Interesting article, as always. Thanks!

Quick question : why choose a named forumla for data that won't likely change mid-session (say O365 profile data or a theme variable) rather than a classic variable? Is there an engine optimization I'm not seeing?

@MicrosoftLearn First pivot table in MS Access in 2010 🤯 Sent me on a career change that led me to become an MSBI/SQL consultant, then tech director and finally business owner.

[Frederic Forest @FredericForest7]

@MSPowerApps I should have known that. ^^' Great, thanks for the support!

[Frederic Forest @FredericForest7]

Woa, wait, WHAT? I've been waiting YEARS for that and it's already in early access? Anyway to get in? I've got dozens of apps currently going through APIM and that would completly change our architecture (for the best!).

@RebeccasWorking @MicrosoftLoop Neat tricks, thanks!

[Frederic Forest @FredericForest7]

@MicrosoftLoop Mostly UI/UX polish to get to a true GA stuff to bring it to feature parity with other Office products (i.e: Version History was a great step). Getting the basics right is key. Speaking of which, I've never found a public roadmap. Have you shared one already?

[Frederic Forest @FredericForest7]

@MrSiWhiteley Best explaination I've seen so far. Thanks!

@statto @MinuteEarth I guess when you die from AIDS we don't label it as you died from a cold...

Should I step down as head of Twitter? I will abide by the results of this poll.
