from Steve Endow's Business Central Podcast · host Steve Endow

I Need Coffee - Episode 197 - Weekly BC Review! (january 16, 2026)1. Tech setup struggles & camera troubleshooting    - Live camera aperture/shutter/exposure hacks during stream     - $1,000 Sony camera repair (gear grinding failure) → new backup body ordered2. Personal weekend activities     - Detailed engine bay cleaning (inspired by ChrisFix YouTube videos)     - AGM battery testing, sulfation concerns, OptiMate 7 charger upgrade     - Emphasis on small, satisfying analog/mechanical projects3. Vibe coding & agentic AI development    - Voice coding on watch/phone fantasy     - Prompt Requests > Pull Requests philosophy     - Junior developer blown away by live vibe-coding demo (wireframe → AL page in ~1 min)     - Limits of AI in complex Business Central AL scenarios (PTE event cascade problem)4. Business Central / Dynamics 365 pain points    - Teams Planner UX disaster (tedious, fighty interface)     - Business Central V27 1099s configuration = “absolute user experience disaster”     - Reverse voided check + bank rec + credit memo mess (no easy undo button)     - 1,440+ events firing in customer PTE sandbox (debug nightmare)5. Microsoft 365 Copilot / Excel agent mode     - New-ish agent capabilities in Excel (data cleanup, fill blanks, etc.)     - Limited without full M365 Copilot license → creates new workbook instead     - Potential use-case: cleaning messy customer migration data files6. Cybersecurity highlights   - Anti-Phishing / Black Hills DNS C2 threat hunting masterclass (highly recommended)     - Fortinet FortiSIEM RCE actively exploited (CVE)     - Browser extension takeover attack vector (Paste Ready → malware in 3 days)     - SignToolEx – using expired/stolen certs without clock tricks     - MCP servers = massive security risk (“The S in MCP stands for security”)7. Nearshore / outsourcing discussion     - Building in-house nearshore practice in El Salvador     - Researching outsourced nearshore providers (Uruguay, Mexico, Colombia)     - Strong opinion: outsourcing fails without new customer-side skills8. Team / company updates (ERP Center of Excellence – El Salvador)**     - Partner Dashboard app ready for deployment     - Vibe-coded PRs flowing fast from junior devs     - MB-800 exam prep (Joselyn, David)     - Fatima taking PMP exam next week9. Upcoming events & pricing    - Vibe Conference (South Padre Island, < 2 weeks away) – 3 sessions     - Pricing updates 2026 (AppSource, consulting, support plans)     - Session idea: modern SaaS support / managed services for cloud BC10. Cultural / philosophical notes    - Difficulty explaining current AI reality to “normies”      - Growing preference for human-made, analog, low-budget, hands-on content      - Vibe-coding rabbit hole → 15–20 unfinished side projects instead of 2–3
