Very cool, we'll put it on our library watch segment!

All good, I knew there might be a cleaner way but when you're in problem solving mode you just go with what's working hah! But now I have a Copilot prompt to do this for next time and it uses the native Docker way if it's available on the host. 🤘

Thanks @jakebailey.dev and @danr.bsky.social for joining us! It was a fun conversation and even the asides were a fun way to learn more about how TS7 is dealing with the spec.

Now with a little prompting, you can have Copilot figure this out for you 🤘

I've updated the gist to include a VS Code Prompt file so now you can just yeet it at the agent and have it analyze the disk usage if you don't want to do it manually. 🤠

Got it! Updated the gist. The original method I used is still a good option if you don't have Docker installed or don't/can't switch to Linux containers/WSL2.

Now I know I'm going to be nerd sniped. I'm sure using the docker run -it method, we can get an output the same way back in one line of code. Worth mentioning I didn't search or even use ChatGPT initially. I solved it using ye old WinDirStat and manually checking sizes lol.

Probably with some command fu, you can use du (?) with this to get a very similar output. But no one had a one liner in there to do exactly what I wanted

There was a big SO question on this and I didn't really like any of the answers besides a link to a Go module, but that didn't work right, so then I found this one. I think the "proper" way is to start an empty container and list the contents. I guess either way, you could run it through the pwsh

HAH, ChatGPT was able to help write a PowerShell script (that it first wrote in Python to test) and now I get what I want 😍

I can share the Gist for it, super handy!

i wish it formatted as tree list with file sizes but you get what you get and you dont have a fit

If I understand the release management process, this means we should expect it to hit 24.x in about 2 weeks then? Pretty awesome.
