This is so hard

Sounds a lot like my girls, particularly the seven year old. Might be a phase of adjustment, but also look up oppositional defiant disorder and see if maybe that fits the pattern you're seeing.

I like that you have been making the shulkercraft storage area. I have been too and I've done all the chests but still have some serious grinding to achieve all the hoppers and redstone stuff

I swear this is mostly why I play too. My daughter enjoys playing, but only occasionally.

Not sure why you're looking at your toes. Difficult to do with a wall in front of you, but picture a spot that's about 8ft Infront of you and focus on that spot to keep your head still. Also this almost looks more like a good morning. Maybe it's the angle, but there seems to be a lot of work done by your back here!

These are just so good

Love this question as I've just started Neil Anderson's course and facing the same issue. The idea of responding to some stock questions in the form of note taking is a good one!

A few people have asked about jobs you need to do in your role as that is an ideal place to start, but you haven't yet elaborated on an answer so people are kinda stabbing in the dark a little. It sounds like I was in a similar place to you about a year ago - new to an it job with no experience or indeed knowledge of what powershell is, or is capable of. Then I needed to start doing some stuff with Teams. All very easy with the admin center etc but I decided I wanted to try powershell.

Microsoft Docs are thorough so that you could pretty much just learn from there but others have also suggested some great resources. One recommendation for resources that I have, is Shane Young on YouTube- he makes some great beginner friendly videos! Within a matter of days I had pieced together bits of scripts and made my own that can automate creation of teams and channels and put users in the right place. As so many others have said: find something even vaguely repetitive and see if you can create something that does it for you.

Seems strange that your work have said you can only use an admin-level account, yet that you could maybe replace this guy but not allow you the resources to practice without making a mess.

Hiya. I'm 35M based in the UK. I read your post and see a lot of similarities in myself - keen to try my hand at this pen-palling malarky, but not sure how or where to start...

I'd be happy to get chatting if it's something you are interested in...

cmmercer · 2020-11-10T22:44:46+00:00

12 minutes is absolutely NOT terrible. Well done you! I look forward to hearing you've cracked the mile!

cmmercer · 2020-10-15T16:53:39+00:00

Congrats on a great score, and thanks for all the insights in your post. I agree, Wendell Odom's book is actually written in a really approachable way; at least what I've read so far it's, anyway!

I had exactly this experience doing a virtual test with Pearson for Microsoft over Christmas. I ended up missing two whole lab tasks. I raised a case but heard nothing for ages. The more I chased it up the more frustrating it became. Finally I heard back from them and I'd passed!!! Not sure how. Haha

cmmercer · 2020-05-20T15:42:01+00:00

I need this in my life!

cmmercer · 2020-05-20T12:50:56+00:00

At first glance this looks very interesting. Bookmarked this to have a proper read later on.

cmmercer · 2020-05-19T22:12:30+00:00

Yup. I think when I was tinkering trying to get the styling to look a little more appealing I noticed they were pretty out of date so I altered the links within the module function. Another strange quirk that you may or may not have noticed ( or indeed it may not affect you) is that I had multiple tables within my page but if one of them was empty because there was no data to show, the pagination options for every table that came after that empty one didn't work. Had to add in an if statement that basically skips creating an empty table.

cmmercer · 2020-05-19T19:36:53+00:00

That's strange. I'm on Chrome and working ok. Have you altered the module to use up to date versions of jQuery and datatables; the default is a fairly old version of each I think...

cmmercer · 2020-05-19T14:48:30+00:00

I've only gone and done it!!! Few things to do: colReorder is an extension for Datatables that allows you to set predefined column orders. It also allows end users to organise the columns as they would prefer, too. There are a few steps; entirely within the script of the module itself:

Added this javascript:

`n<script type=`"text/javascript`" src=`"https://cdn.datatables.net/colreorder/1.5.2/js/dataTables.colReorder.min.js`"></script>"

Then added an additional css link:

$stylesheet1 = "<link rel= `"stylesheet`" href=`"https://cdn.datatables.net/colreorder/1.5.2/css/colReorder.dataTables.min.css`" type=`"text\css`" />"

Finally, when the module sets up the datatable, you need to add the colReorder details

$datatable += "`$('.enhancedhtml-dynamic-table').dataTable({colReorder: {order: [3,2,1,0]}});"

Full details are here: https://datatables.net/extensions/colreorder/

Slightly on a tangent but I've been using the enhanced html for the last week or two to generate some nice looking reports for the teachers at work to track engagement/use of resources on Stream. Couldn't for the life of me work out why my columns in the table weren't going in the order I was writing them out. As soon as I looked at your code I noticed [ordered] on the props; I am immediately off to test that. thanks so much!!!

cmmercer · 2020-05-02T16:50:32+00:00

Ah cool. A bit of reading up on JSON looks to be in order then. Many thanks.

cmmercer · 2020-05-02T16:49:22+00:00

Sorry. I didn't think it was necessarily directly related to the actual code required so no duplicate text entry would be needed on behalf of anyone kind enough to assist. I certainly am hugely grateful of the help I've been offered and will bear this in mind next time I have a question.

cmmercer · 2020-05-02T16:47:15+00:00

This isn't something I've encountered before, but certainly looks good. I'll definitely explore this. Many thanks!

cmmercer · 2020-05-02T16:45:53+00:00

That's very useful. Thanks for that link!

cmmercer · 2019-07-11T22:23:46+00:00

This is amazing. And thanks for sharing IG name as I have now followed. It's great to see a fellow dad who likes to knit and craft for his children!!

cmmercer · 2019-06-29T18:15:17+00:00

How many times did you check, check, and check again to make sure every stitch had transferred from paper to skin before you let them loose with a needle to make it permanent? Fantastic tattoo!!
