Optimizing Windows Terminal for Sovereign Clouds

I work with Azure sovereign clouds (specifically Azure Government [https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/global-infrastructure/government/]) every day, and I spend a lot of time using the Azure CLI [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/] inside of Windows Terminal [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/terminal/].

One Year at Microsoft

It's now been a year since I joined Microsoft and I have to say, it's been quite a ride. Last year I joined the Azure Government [https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/overview/clouds/government/] Engineering team - this is one of the only engineering teams at Microsoft that is not based primarily in Redmond (which makes sense since we're close to the Federal government in Washington, DC). I generally travel to Redmond about every 8 weeks for face-to-face meetings and other activities - this defini...
