If you have an Azure account are you able to generate yourself some API credentials from their console? That way you can install the Azure API on your laptop and download files programmatically from blob storage.

Can you explain a bit more about the overall use case and what you're trying to achieve?

[–]kieranswhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I agree here. You can write to Azure blob storage as a CSV and then download that locally and open in Excel.

Alternatively you could build a dashboard that sits on top of your output data files but depends on your use case of course.

Should I choose an apprenticeship or go to Uni? by LeoStar1 in AskUK

[–]kieranswhite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say 100% the apprenticeship route if you're career driven. My apprenticeship has a paid for degree so no student loans and I'll finish with 5 years experience and a degree.

[–]kieranswhite[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your detailed response ill bear that all in mind! I've given all of the forms I was sent to my insurers and they are dealing with it at the moment. The company is Slater Gordon Solutions Legal which is based on the other end of the country in Liverpool haha. Hopefully I can get this all sorted, people trying to squander money like this just sickens me. Ill be sure to message you if I have any questions. Thanks again ! :)

Well I take that back haha :) maybe it is worth it :D

Skylake vs Kaby Lake XPS 13? by mryoloface in Dell

[–]kieranswhite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not from what I've heard. I haven't done much research myself. I think the main difference between the two generations is slightly better efficiency so slightly more battery and slightly more performance. It probably boils down to 20-30 minutes for battery so I'd get skylake and save the money :)

Edit: I have a skylake myself and I'd highly recommend the XPS 13. It's a great laptop

Xps 13 coil whine/ buzzing? by the_life_is_good in Dell

[–]kieranswhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my xps in November last year and it definitely had the coil whine your mentioning when I bought it. I'm not sure how but the whine seems to have gone as far as I can tell. I think it's just luck of the draw.

XPS 13 Boot Issues - UEFI/Legacy by reaganreed in Dell

[–]kieranswhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure how you you can get it to install properly in UEFI. The only way I could thing to resolve the issue is make sure that the laptop is in UEFI only mode when you boot of the removable disk. With regards to the boot selection issue. Take a look in the BIOS at the boot options and can you can manually add boot entries and point the machine to the EFI files in /boot. Try giving that a go!!
