Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation page exhibits several forms of Windows bias. Windows tools and patterns (such as PowerShell, RDP, and Windows-specific utilities like 'robocopy' and 'Explorer') are referenced without equivalent Linux alternatives. Examples for mounting NFS shares and troubleshooting VM extensions are given using Windows paths, commands, and tools, with no Linux command-line equivalents provided. PowerShell is referenced as the interface for device management and troubleshooting, but there is no mention of SSH or Bash alternatives. In some cases, Linux is mentioned (e.g., 'Linux VM'), but the instructions and examples are still Windows-centric or Windows-first.
Recommendations:
  • For every Windows-specific tool or command (e.g., PowerShell, robocopy, Explorer, RDP), provide equivalent Linux commands (e.g., Bash, cp/rsync, Nautilus, SSH).
  • When giving example commands (such as mounting NFS shares), include both Windows and Linux syntax side by side.
  • Reference Linux management patterns (e.g., SSH access, systemctl for services) alongside PowerShell and Windows patterns.
  • When troubleshooting VM extensions or services, provide Linux-based diagnostic steps (e.g., using systemctl, journalctl, or ps commands) in addition to Windows steps.
  • Ensure that documentation for tools like sqlcmd includes installation and usage instructions for both Windows and Linux clients.
  • Review all examples and instructions to ensure Linux parity and avoid Windows-first ordering.
