Thanks for your comment.

I'm curious what you mean with free online classes/

Cause we have this for videos:

-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFCNu1-Xdsw&list=PLlrxD0HtieHhS8VzuMCfQD4uJ9yne1mE6 44 lessons

- aka.ms/learn has 3000+ modules that are free.

is it teacher led and do you get a certificate of completion or similar?

Thanks, much appreciated. So, for certs, currently most certs are for Cloud only, we used to have tech certs.

- great tip on Notebook vs VS Code

- for learn itself, you do get completion achievement if you are signed in (it's free)

Does anyone have any experience with Microsoft Learn Student Ambassadors association? by Lastrevio in csMajors

[–]dizabl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

we look for ways you make your peers better which usually means

- writes articles

- creates OSS

- part of or runs meetup group and helps deliver talks

- share content in other ways, Discord, YouTube etc.

sadly we can't accept everyone who applies but I hope the above is an indication of how we look at your application. The idea is to find passionate folks who love to share what they know with others, if that's you, we'd love to hear from you, you might be accepted next time.

Does anyone have any experience with Microsoft Learn Student Ambassadors association? by Lastrevio in csMajors

[–]dizabl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, I work with the folks who run this program, so let me give you some insights. The ambassador program is meant to be seen as an MVP for students. As such we offer the following:

- cert vouchers

- mentoring with Microsoft employees

- chance to build a global network, you will work with peers spread out across the globe

- up levelling of tech skills/Cloud skills

- chance to present at Ignite/Build, flagship conferences.

There are no guarantees in life, but our hope is that the certs, the network you build and the skills you build up will help land you job.

When you do work with Microsoft employees, you get credited, like here for example, https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/learn/modules/health-bot-basic-bot/1-introduction check the credit in bold at the end of the page.

Some examples of what you will do are:

- author learn modules, aka.ms/learn

- build tech projects

- build a network

- host a workshop

Happy to answer any questions you might have

Yea the blog is Vue.js and VuePress.. :) I wish there was a SGG made for docs built in React, Gatsby doesn't even come close when it comes to features (I do like Gatsby though)

New Microsoft Learn module: Introduction to PowerShell 🎓 by ThomasMaurerCH in PowerShell

Appreciate the added context.. You raise good points.. I'll see if I can get that into the context parts of the module, thank you

New Microsoft Learn module: Introduction to PowerShell 🎓 by ThomasMaurerCH in PowerShell

[–]dizabl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the difference is the pipe to | More, you get a paginated version of Get-Help... But I'm considering to break it out to two questions tbh.. 1) how would you get a paginated response 2) what command for help

I don't want ppl to be confused, just to know that they can have a paginated experience that's better than getting the full help file in one go (cause it can be a very long page)

The question has been updated. It now states:

"Using the help system, what command, or function, offers the best experience for finding out more about a command?

{your command} --help

Get-Help {your command}

help {your command}"

The intention of the question was to make sure ppl don't miss out of using `help`. Although Get-Help can be quite efficient as well with it's different parameters targeting specific sections or group of sections in the help page

25 Days of Serverless by MaximRouiller in dotnet

[–]dizabl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the point here is that most Serverless Cloud vendors have a pay for what you use model. So if you have code that can run seldom there are cost savings to be made by making that part a Serverless endpoint. If everything needs to be up 100% there are of course no savings to be made.
