@markrussinovich Thanks Mark! Very useful, small and quick tool. Is there a plan to also record audio when using video recording?

@markrussinovich That's great! Thanks for improving it. It's a great tool for presenters.

@GlennAlanBerry @AzureDataStudio to the Rescue? Yes, it depends on what you were planning to do in SSMS :-)

OMG. I'm trying to start SSMS 19.0.2 on a 2 vCPU VM and It is taking forever! Nearly 10 minutes for a cold startup.

I am honored to present my new session named "Mastering Azure Data Studio: Maximize Your Productivity" @BostonCodeCamp (Boston Code Camp 34) on Saturday, April 29. #boscc @AzureDataStudio bostoncodecamp.com

I have submitted my session "Mastering Azure Data Studio: Maximize Your Productivity" to #boscc bostoncodecamp.com (Saturday, April 29). Keeping my fingers crossed. @AzureDataStudio

@cwebb_bi Thanks Chris. I see the potential and I will start playing with it. Wondering about the chances to see this extension supported in Azure Data Studio too.

Very stressful weekend. Power surges were blowing out transformers and taking out electronics across the city of Waltham. 24 hours without power. Conducting damage assessment - already found multiple fried surge protectors. Furnace won't start. This is not good.
