Microsoft copied my blog post I know I'm being petty but this just irked me enough that I wanted to share. I wrote a blog post on the differences in syntax between PowerShell and Python. It was really popular. My most popular post this year. Like 10k views in a day popular. I don't get THAT much traffic. https://blog.ironmansoftware.com/powershell-vs-python/ It was brought to my attention today that a Sr. Cloud Advocate at Microsoft took my blog post, tweaked it a bit and posted it on a Microsoft hosted blog. Almost exactly the same post. https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/itops-talk-blog/the-syntax-difference-between-python-and-powershell/ba-p/1747859?WT.mc_id=modinfra-9656-abartolo Obviously, I will never be able to outrank Microsoft.com and any SEO I would have seen from such a post is now gone. He did link to my site but not the original article. And I know, my content is out on the internet for anyone to reproduce, enhance, reshare, reblog and whatever. It happens. I mostly just wanted to rant. Sorry for wasting your time. ;) |
