Well, there was some switch that made the access to the other repository work. But it requires us to use a special command, which in turn requires some additional steps to make the intended flow work as we want it to work.

Indeed. I do hope it is just that, but I am not holding my breath either.

I do hope this issue can be resolved by toggling a switch on in the general Azure DevOps settings that has been set to off because of ”security reasons”. I do understand why such concerns exist, but there should be a way to set things differently for easier developer experience. Also, I am really annoyed by the fact that I always need to ask someone else to play with some project settings. That slows getting things done down significantly.

I spent a significant amount of time to hone a publishing pipeline only to find out that Azure DevOps has some stupid-ass limitations for accessing code repositories and pipeline artifacts from a different project in Azure Pipelines. Both of these should be possible, according to Microsoft’s documentation, but it just does not work…

I have been very strict with my watch notifications (and notifications on my phone in general): only those that I truly find necessary are allowed to come through, the others are not coming to my watch and on the phone only the badge is used.

I have the battery level on the complications I use, but I have recently experienced cases where the watch had switched itself off. Those might be related to the condition of the battery, who really knows.

Well, like said, I have had it for 5 years and have gotten stuff out of the watch that has been worth it.

I was a no-watch person for ~15 years. I haven’t decided what I will do now yet. I like the Apple Watch for 2 major reasons:
1. I can get navigation on the watch, which notifies me when I am approaching some important point (such as an intersection) and tells me how to proceed from that point onward.2. The sports tracking for which I would need another sports watch that costs about the same.

Then there are other features that are nice and that I find useful. In other words, I either get a new Apple Watch or then I start living with my wrist free again.

I managed to avoid this for 5 years but finally it happened: I dropped my Apple Watch on the bathroom floor and the screen got all cracked. Well, it already had battery issues and it would turn off by itself every now and then, plus it will not receive the latest WatchOS update, so it was almost time to get it replaced anyway.
