Compare-TwoCsvFiles

    <#
	.SYNOPSIS
    Compares two CSV files using a common field.

	.DESCRIPTION
	  Compares two CSV files using an index, or common field to flag and find rows with that matching field instead of comparing the files row by row, sequentially.

    should be Csv1. The newest version of the files being compared should be Csv2. 

	.PARAMETER  Csv1FilePath

This is a simple workaround solution for a complicated problem with registering VisualStudio online NuGet packages repositories as PowerShell module repositories.

The Problem with PowerShellGet

PowerShellGet just doesn't work with NuGet CredentialProviders, because it uses the -noninteractive switch whenever it calls nuget. However, the VisualStudio.com (VSO) nuget package repositories can work as internal PowerShell Galleries, because passing the credentials to Find-Module and Install-Module does work ...

Basically, the problem is two fold: authentication when publishing, and authentication when searching or installing. The second problem can be dealt with, inconveniently, by passing credentials every time. But the first cannot. These VSO repositories require a Credential Provider plugin to handle Microsoft Authentication (including support for 2-factor au

Stevey's Google Platforms Rant

I was at Amazon for about six and a half years, and now I've been at Google for that long. One thing that struck me immediately about the two companies -- an impression that has been reinforced almost daily -- is that Amazon does everything wrong, and Google does everything right. Sure, it's a sweeping generalization, but a surprisingly accurate one. It's pretty crazy. There are probably a hundred or even two hundred different ways you can compare the two companies, and Google is superior in all but three of them, if I recall correctly. I actually did a spreadsheet at one point but Legal wouldn't let me show it to anyone, even though recruiting loved it.

I mean, just to give you a very brief taste: Amazon's recruiting process is fundamentally flawed by having teams hire for themselves, so their hiring bar is incredibly inconsistent across teams, despite various efforts they've made to level it out. And their operations are a mess; they don't real
