I'm thinking of recommending it as a global boolean in QA to see how many times it comes up in code samples over the next few years...

Like all the new features, it's nice when you can dictate the db server version. Don't forget about the compatibility level setting of the database as I found out last month! 
Now, if they could just get the query designer to remember the layout (x,y) of objects when I'm working on a query....every time, scroll down, drag tables/views up where I can see them all, and reposition so it makes sense...run query, if anything is wrong, repeat. Also, if it could remember it's last window state/position/screen that would convince me to start using newer versions of SSMS.
For me, SSMS 2016 fails with some MEF error every other time I need to use it, so I still do most work with 2014. I have 2017 which is OK but still slower to start than 2014. I really only use it to import Azure dbs.

My only question is, why are you using a CTP of SQL 2016? It's already got 2 service packs, and the latest one's already at its fifth cumulative update.

I'm actually using CU3, it was CTP3 that introduced this feature.

I shared a google spreadsheet link to my boss.
Within a minute, I saw someone logging into the sheet. (Google Spreadsheet notifies this)
I hovered over the incoming user icon.. it says "Anonymous buffalo" 
I had a burst of laughter, for a moment.
Guess it's better if google picks non-derogatory animal names for such labeling/avatar purpose.
I understand it's purely subjective & a cultural thing, but still companies should give a bit of importance to local culture/sentiments.

I'd be more worried that they'd used their 3TB of personal data about your boss to have come up with the "buffalo" profile (there's probably a page explaining what the profile names mean).
That's one of the attributes of google: the more cutesy and buddy-buddy they behave, the more devious their real objectives.

DRIVE?
Don't have a reasoning though.
[EDIT]
Haven;t been in the Lounge for a while; what' a "mini CCC"? What's 18 (in the subject) and 29 (in the clue)? Is it still winner-stays-on?

I put a Mini CCCs write up on my profile page[^] - the numbering is, well, numbering.
And nope, not DRIVE.

Not a programming question but a Windows 10 and an MSI not talking to each other.
Got a work customer that is sitting in a Domain with AD Servers sitting on Windows Server 2012 R2. Their computers are all on 1803 and we haven't allowed the rollout of 1809 after Octobers clusterelephant.
They have a program update from Corporate Headquarters I need to install but it is complaining that .NET 4.7 is required. 1803 comes with 4.7.2 included, I have confirmed it is there via Registry and also Windows Components.
The MSI log created gave me nothing useful to go on.
Anyone got a pointer or a clue bat for me?

Forgot to add this link in How a Windows 10 Update Might Have Broken Your .NET App[^]

Thanks for the help Jorgen, I don't know if I am answering your question or looking more stupid than usual.
Properties of the installation file give me the following -

Please add the girl to the sterilization too... making it public as "look how funny"... it is not the smartest thing one could do.
