Angular 6 CLI issue

After installing the new Angular 6 CLI, I was eager to try it out. So I opened up a command prompt and invoked ng new MyNewAngular6App.

But instead of getting a new Angular project, I got the following error message:

Schematic input does not validate against the Schema: {"dryRun":false,"version":"6.0.4","skipGit":false,"skipInstall":false,"linkCli":false,"commit":true,"newProjectRoot":"projects","inlineStyle":false,"inlineTemplate":false,"routing":false,"prefix":"app","style":"css","skipTests":false}
Errors:

  Data path "" should NOT have additional properties(dryRun).
I talked to a collegae who installed Angular 6 before and he didn’t had the same problem. While comparing our projects I noticed that he had an older version of the Angular CLI; 6.0.3 where I was using the 6.0.4 version. So this looks like an issue specifically linked to Angular CLI 6.0.4.
I tried to downgrade to 6.0.3 after which ng new finally worked:

npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
npm cache verify
npm install -g @angular/cli@6.0.3

Remark: The Angular team is already aware of this issue and did a new release 6.05 which is a rollback to 6.0.3, https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/releases/tag/v6.0.5

Podman– Command execution failed with exit code 125

After updating WSL on one of the developer machines, Podman failed to work. When we took a look through Podman Desktop, we noticed that Podman had stopped running and returned the following error message: Error: Command execution failed with exit code 125 Here are the steps we tried to fix the issue: We started by running podman info to get some extra details on what could be wrong: >podman info OS: windows/amd64 provider: wsl version: 5.3.1 Cannot connect to Podman. Please verify your connection to the Linux system using `podman system connection list`, or try `podman machine init` and `podman machine start` to manage a new Linux VM Error: unable to connect to Podman socket: failed to connect: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:2655: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. That makes sense as the podman VM was not running. Let’s check the VM: >podman machine list NAME         ...

VS Code Planning mode

After the introduction of Plan mode in Visual Studio , it now also found its way into VS Code. Planning mode, or as I like to call it 'Hannibal mode', extends GitHub Copilot's Agent Mode capabilities to handle larger, multi-step coding tasks with a structured approach. Instead of jumping straight into code generation, Planning mode creates a detailed execution plan. If you want more details, have a look at my previous post . Putting plan mode into action VS Code takes a different approach compared to Visual Studio when using plan mode. Instead of a configuration setting that you can activate but have limited control over, planning is available as a separate chat mode/agent: I like this approach better than how Visual Studio does it as you have explicit control when plan mode is activated. Instead of immediately diving into execution, the plan agent creates a plan and asks some follow up questions: You can further edit the plan by clicking on ‘Open in Editor’: ...
