Most law enforcement applications are the same : a monolithic crud .net client connecting to a version of sql server and each one is god awful. They need strong saas apps, Im tired of managing them.

Ternary operators and better Get-Error output are very welcome additions, Ive been writing a few infrastructure testing tools in Pester that could possibly be consolidated.

Dont burn bridges, keep the lights on but dont dig into anything new, document that might effect continuity, reevaluate finances if you dont have anything lined up.

I have a very contentious address problem and have gotten humans from Amazon every time, I even had one take gps coordinates so they could re-route a truck in transit to the wrong location. Youd have to be almost intentionally messing the support process up to not get a human.

on: My productivity app for the past 12 years has been a single .txt file
In the last few months Ive moved to a single vc'ed text file for work notes and a notebook for tasks and calendaring similar to the typical bullet journal but broken into weeks instead of months. I love it far more than shucking my life into 2-5 productivity apps because I can change my system on a dime. Sometimes my week calendar is a quarter page, sometimes its 2. Having my work notes in git makes them constantly available to my team and eventually Id like to let them contribute. I dont think id even consider personal info management in any other way.

I do this with my own mail account using a filter that drops messages with an @NoteToSelf tag in the body into a particular folder. I hate to be that guy, I think Paul thought too hard about this one.

I cant recommend Omstars enough for solo work. They have tons of material to help develop fundamentals, though Id encourage you to use the videos to build a habit and then seek out a teacher.
