Tbh the biggest secret I learned working with devs is how much they have to Google stuff. Some just remember everything and are CL geniuses, but most folks are successful not because they know everything but because they know how to search for, find, and fix what they don’t know.

dbatools 1.1.0 has dropped 🥳 We've made a ton of changes, like adding more support for Azure and Linux. We did up our requirements to .NET 4.6.2 (released in 2018) but dbatools now works even better on all platforms. More details here 👇🏽 github.com/sqlcollaborative/…
