If you weren’t aware, I did a great deal of writing and posting recently due to my idea to complete chapter reviews of The Pester Book. I think it was a success, and if anything, it helped force me to ensure I fully understood the content for the things I covered here. I’m not confident […]
I use a small handful of my own PowerShell aliases and of course some of those included with PowerShell natively.

There once was a time I wrote a post. Realistically, there have been many times. Like many posts though, I was proud of it. I can’t show it to you, as it wasn’t written on my site and it has since been lost. I am actually kind of embarrassed by it these days, so I’m […]
Edit: I’ve updated this post by adding a really quick video at the bottom — check it out. It briefly shows the results of the concepts in this post.
