Time to boycott Spotify, and make sure to let the podcasts using it know that you are.

"Sorry, but I can't watch/listen to you until you leave Spotify" should give them the message.

16 June 2025
Meta announced today that it also wants to introduce ads on WhatsApp, which will be based on personal data from Facebook and Instagram. This further integrates WhatsApp into other Meta services - an originally independent app, which initially was available for just $1 per year without ads or data usage. This also means that Meta is consolidating its social networking monopoly. EU law was actually supposed to prevent this."

I took an assessment for the Applied Skills: Implement a Lakehouse in #MicrosoftFabric in #MicrosoftLearn and didn't finish. When I try to take a second assessment, after creating the Workspace when I try to create a lakehouse I get an error:
"Capacity Limit Exceeded".

I deployed from a Development Workspace including a lakehouse with sample data to a Test Workspace and then to a Production one in #MSFabric. The artifacts got deployed but without data, and the message in the pipeline is successful.
Error, bug or is it just me?

I'm not being able to load a csv file to a delta table using the UI "Load to table" option from the #MSFabric lakehouse. I get this error: "Unable to identify these objects as tables". Is anyone experiencing this?
