Did you miss @waldo1001.bsky.social talk about slow #msdyn365bc #performance? 🐌 🐌

Just imagine your customer saying: “Wow, it’s not slow anymore. What did you do?” And you replying: “I watched waldo.” 😎

Tried to remember which Format() gives me a GUID without braces for the 7th time this month… so I made a quick AL Format() cheatsheet 🧠💡

Format Cheatsheet

This is a very quick cheatsheet for all the different formats that you get out of AL using the Format() function with various format options.

As a #vscode developer, you might experience that many of your extensions are now marked as "no longer available on the Extension Marketplace".
I suppose this will be fixed soon, and it is not related to the affected extensions:

Oh, I knew about Mibuso. It was my StackOverflow “copy and commit” sometimes 😂
Huh, that reminds me, it’s actually my 10 year anniversary since I started with NAV haha. October 2nd, 2015.

When I discovered Reddit, I got super excited that there must also be a very active NAV sub-reddit. Just to be super disappointed 😅

I sometimes write “/s” to indicate to people that I’m being sarcastic, but it apparently triggers teams to ask me if I want to delete ALL chat history 😂
Very dangerous… 😅

🚀 Copilot is just a fancy autocomplete… or is it?

I re-delivered my session last week & realized how much has changed since BC TechDays 🤯

New blog: settings, instructions, models & MCPs.

Why doesn't the #msdyn365bc world embrace #PowerPlatform? @waldo1001.bsky.social and @tinestaric.bsky.social tackle the real arguments - price, skills, maintainability. Some valid, some outdated. This recording brings clarity to both sides of the conversation.

Is GitHub Copilot just a fancy autocomplete? 🙄 Or can it do more?

I’ve played a lot with GHCopilot and Cursor, but haven’t dabbled with Claude Code yet…

And then Stefan agreed to show me why for him Claude Code is the best way to develop AL with AI!

Curious? Join us tomorrow :D

Here’s a frustrating BC story of the week.
We spend ~30h investigating why a big feature merge crashed VSC…
Turns out if you create and endless loop with two page extensions
AddBefore(Action1) { Action2 }
And
AddAfter(Action2) { Action1 }

The compiler just gives up with no indication what’s wrong…
