Personally, I don't mind it.
At first I thought it was a resharper or visual assist thing.

I do mind it. Not only do the new icons look horible, it's just the fact that they would change it. I mean, why???
This is the sort of thing that drives devs mad. Leave things alone!!! It wouldn't be so bad if they created an option to change it an defaulted it to the previous setting, but to just go about changing the UI that devs are used to with zero warning is just rediculous.

You missed it Kevin. He's poking at you. But seriously, changing defaults on developers is just an abortion. Dear MS, I have a really good elephanting idea. If you think what you are doing is better, let us have the option of "we disagree, make it go back".
The only thing worse I have ever seen MS do (maybe I'll make a website and had ads...) is force reboots. Whoever made the final decision on that needs to be beaten to the point of hospitalization (not the morgue). Free points if you can cite the movie.

I know, right? And then they do NOT actually fix what devs have been begging them to fix, such as:
Microsoft Developer Community - Full Git Submodule Support[^]
Look in the comments in the thread of that post and you'll see what I mean.
Look, it took them until VS2022 just to make the devenv.exe process a 64-bit process.

They figured they needed to provide a reason for people to write extensions to change it back?

You know the problem with that is that the code would be buggy, and every once in a while, in a completely random fashion, it would just ignore your selection.
Or it'd reset it again to the selection you don't want during the next update. Then eventually you'd just give up.
Sounds familiar?

Because they are more interested in form than function, and to "be more inclusive."

Maybe they do it to reduce confusion. A squared + is a plus, but a squared - is also a plus. 
Religious freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make five.

Perhaps MS should make these icons configurable. Config files are as old as eternity, isn't it?
Or, has MS already made these icons configurable ?

Some f$€k3r has a useless job and needs to justify their paycheck.
Do they know we developers work mostly on muscle memory and instant pattern recognition? Mess that up and it's like cutting off our dominant hand. That's why we go to war with each other over code formatting after all.

If you wish to format a date in Power Apps, there is a nice set of format letters to provide custom output. So using the Text function I can write
Text(myDate, "mmm dd yy")
Or for time I can write
Text(myTime, "hhmm")
Or I can combine them into
Text(myDateTime, "hhmm mmm dd yy")
Why would anyone think to use the same lower case letters for two very distinct fields?
There is actually a work-around, make sure dd comes first in the date. Good luck 'mercans.

Because "mm" means minutes, and "mmm" means the three-letter short month name. If you want the two-digit month number, you use "MM".

I wouldn't necessarily assume that Power Apps use the same conventions .NET does.
I've used Power BI just a tiny bit, and I wouldn't assume anything based on any prior knowledge or...dare I say, common sense.

No, you use lower case "m" for both.

I thought 'mmm' meant Beer. At least it does when Homer does it.

I would make sure dd comes last. yyyy-mm-dd is my default format.
