@StefanMaron Must see! Hope I don't have conflicting sessions.

@SBalslev be sure to join us ;)

Join me and @SXShadowXS on @DirectionsEMEA in Poznan this November and see how we forced the Business Central Server into a Penguin Suite and what results we discovered! #msdyn365bc

My most frequently used copilot question, even with instructions to keep the specs in sync I have to ask every now and them. The reply is always Yes - docs are updated (and then it goes and does 15 modifications)

#msdyn365bc developers! The AL Language pre-release v16.0.1417442 is here, power up your symbol usage. 🚀 In #GitHub #Copilot chat, you can now use the # sym: syntax to include symbols. And Go To Symbol (Ctrl+T), navigating your workspace and dependencies has never been easier!

Found a place for last years winter project. My sister assembled the beads so i had to put it up!

@StefanMaron @luc_vandyck Well I've never been shy to take a detour or the long way arround 😉

@SBalslev @luc_vandyck Ah checked the map, its probably even behind poznan from your direction

Back home from #Emea2024 - now I need to relax a bit. Thank you for all the feedback, ideas and questions #msdyn365bc

@luc_vandyck Not this time, maybe a trip to Poznań next year?! 😀

@SBalslev Enjoy the drink. No motorbike trip this time?

Look mon, corner office 🤣😂

No early checkin for me but at least there is #Coffee - #DirectionsEMEA2024

@StefanMaron Not this time 🤔, have to be home friday night

@SBalslev Did you take the bike again? 😎

@StefanMaron @davidfowl Well a part from the obvious access to it from anywhere. Nuking the environment is easy. Creating special setups is easy. All without affecting the node I'm on. What's not to like.

@SBalslev @davidfowl

First time trying out devbox (azure.microsoft.com/en-us/products…) and it's working really well!

Svould have stayed home...

@JenMsft Congrats!

I got promoted!

@KarolakNatalie @StefanMaron It is on the radar but not at the top of the todo list.

@StefanMaron @SBalslev Indeed - according to the docs, it should be an info, not disabled? learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics… Reminds me of: github.com/microsoft/AL/i…

Question for #msdyn365bc developers out there. How do you remember to add the namespace at the top of the files when you create a new object? I contently forget to add that and there is no hint at all to remind me to add it.

@KarolakNatalie @StefanMaron Today I trust my fellow code reviewers in and outside Microsoft to help with that. And AA0247

@SBalslev @StefanMaron And what about the second part of my question: How do you ensure today that new Microsoft objects get namespaced?

@KarolakNatalie @StefanMaron No plans today 😜

@StefanMaron Nah, actually this is really Microsoft's part: by providing a new feature string in the app.json, maybe: "ForceNamespaces". @SBalslev Any plans ...? :-) Or, how do you ensure that namespaces are used for new objects?

@StefanMaron Nice, can you create an issue on github.com/microsoft/al with the details and your extension version? Just released a new one a few minutes ago so you might want to retry on that one.

@SBalslev Managed to break it live on stream. Here is the section where you can rewatch it: youtu.be/-7jh-9h-3Nc?t=…

In the reflecting mood? Descartes in #msdyn365bc AL pre-release version 14.0.1037708. Extending interfaces, testing, and casting interfaces keywords (is, as) - great additions to AL in the next major.

@waldo1001 @JeremyVyska @myNAVblog @KarolakNatalie Extension methods may be buried on an ideas site simply because cost does not compare with the value. IsNotEmpty does not add new functionality so perhaps that could be a small productivity feature.

@JeremyVyska @myNAVblog @KarolakNatalie @SBalslev You mean .. the place with the 5000 "ideas"? :-) But then we'd be able to create a 5001st idea, and point to this page and say "implement all this" ;-)

@SBalslev since you doing lately so many nice things in AL. I have one more small really small request. And you would not even imagine how many developers you would make happy 😀 Please Please Please: Can you add IsNotEmpty?🙏🙏🙏🙏

@acilio_ferreira Here we go: github.com/microsoft/BCTe…

@SBalslev Hi Steffen, As I can't send you a msg on "X", I thought I could use this option to kindly as you the following: Do you mind sharing source code regarding your presentation TechDays2024 "Obsolete Move, Future of delocalization and componentization" ? (GitHub link !?) Thanks 😀

It may not be Friday yet but it's nice to see small additions can make code much more readable #msdyn365bc - feedback from #BCTechDays added to the language in the next version
