So you’d like to start using infrastructure as code, but have a bunch of existing Azure resources? Or maybe you’ve added some resources through UI and want to include them in existing terraform script?

Start an OpenVPN server inside docker container so that other users (i.e. workers) can connect to internal network.

How to instrument PowerShell scripts and find performance bottlenecks? And how PS hashtables can bite you.

If you don’t want to type your username and password everytime you do a pull or push to mercurial, you have to store your credentials somewhere. On windows, the commandline hg does not store credentials (you have to enter them every time). If you configure credentials in TortoiseHG, the username and password will be stored in plain-text, in mercurial.ini file. This is not the most secure way to do it, and mercurial will even warn you about that.
