A story in Private Eye, headlined "Minority representation on TV causes outrage". The article reads: "There has been widespread support for prominent Reform MP Sarah Pochin after she complained about the over-representation of minorities on television.
Said one angry viewer, "She's right. Every time you turn on the telly there's another Reform MP being interviewed by Laura Kuenssberg."
She added, "I respect their way of life and their strange customs, but Reform MPs comprise only 0.7 percent of the House of Commons. Yet Nigel Farage is on Question Time more than Fiona Bruce."
"I'm not prejudiced. Some of my best friends are swivel-eyed loons, but enough is enough. There are too many people with angry red faces on television."
Private Eye nailing it.

The most likely reason (assuming there really was a reason) is that you wanted to return a completely _different_ array to the caller vs just mutating the contents of the passed array from within the callee.

Surely the current nomenclature is "men of fighting age" ! Have to admit, it never occurred to me they might be talking about COD ! ;-)

One significant - & dangerous - thing to watch for is professional commentators objecting to words rather than examining the evidence. It's pearl-clutching & cowardly, obviously, but also a deliberate attempt to avoid confronting exactly what they themselves are facilitating and often cheering on.

How pretty is this? Plotting asset journeys using a "pseudo heatmap" on the amazing MapsUI component by @pauldendulk.bsky.social Points are colored using a new "heatmap_color" function in the KQL engine

Even assuming (optimistically) a majority of these are bots and troll farms it's depressing that we're in an environment where people can post this kind of stuff. They won't win but we need to take it seriously.

Kusto-Loco 1.3.8 released. Headline feature is client support for:
- Azure Defender (Advanced Threat Hunting)
- LogAnalytics
- ARG (Azure Resource groups)
Lokqldx can not only issue queries to these but also supports 'render' unlike the native APIs

Would be genuinely interested in your thoughts if you do. I used it a long time ago on some mega-refactoring projects and liked what it could do but can't really justify the expense for day-to-day development

Kind of neat if you're dealing repeatedly with the same data shapes or using excel to persist data you want to operate on with code. That's a fairly unusual case where I'm from but I may well be in a minority. I guess the other question is where does this end ? I mean you could use...

True - though you then have the overhead of having to decode the assembly. A couple of tools that _might_ help though I'm skeptical at this scale.. Resharper and NDepend. Both paid but with free trials. NDepend is probably close to doing what you want.

In a day? Tricky, but a blunt-force approach would be to build a simple grep-like tool to look for class definitions and then count callsites for their constructors. That would at least give a "way in" for identifying things that might be moved easily or conversely have high dependent count.

HELP WANTED... It has not escaped my notice that a lot of people round here use KQL for something they call "infosec" rather than for drawing pretty charts. Therefore, I have added Defender, Monitor and ARG clients to Lokqldx. However, not being a user myself, I am looking for beta testers...

Sure but I mean it's 7-8 times slower! that seems... like not just a slower file system ?

I was pretty surprised to see this and checked a couple of completed PR logs on github. The discrepancy seems to be mainly in "dotnet restore" (2:43 vs 24s !) "Setup net sdk" is also significantly faster on non-windows. What on earth is going on here? Surely this should be dominated by network?

This guy has to go... I'll freely admit I'm _extremely_ disturbed by seen so many far-right thugs gathered in one place with the world's dimmest billionaire egging them on while our government smile politely and congratulate themselves for rising above it.
