“PowerShell was, is, and always will be about the user community… whatever tool makes you successful, that’s the tool you should use.” - @jsnover.com , inventor of PowerShell

This mindset is what makes the PowerShell community so special. It’s never been about one tool or one way.

I just published a blog post about the OpenCLI initiative. I think it's time we had a way to standardize CLI automation!

Feedback, suggestions, and thoughts are more than welcome.

💡I heard some new consultant lingo yesterday. The phrase is "self-licking ice cream cone."

Example: "We need to be secure… because we need to pass the audit… so we can say we’re secure."

It has now dawned on me that our entire industry could be considered a self-licking ice cream cone...🤯

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Ukraine is Europe!
We stand by Ukraine.

We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor.

Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.
