Maps! In @obsidian.md! I rolled this out across my vault with one prompt and @funbucket.dev’s #aitools. Amazing!

I had the absolute joy and indescribable terror of emailing 1200 of my closest coworkers to announce we would be making the GitHub repo for our PowerShell module public tomorrow. I set my alarm for 11pm to flip the switch at 8am CET. It is done! Link to GitHub in the docs: www.milestonepstools.com

Getting ready for "The Power of GitHub Copilot in VS Code" 💪

Hell YES! Been waiting for Claude on Azure.

I sit down with Aung Oo – VP of Azure Storage, to talk about the evolving world of cloud native storage. From Kubernetes to AI workloads, they explore how Azure is innovating to meet the demands of modern, data-intensive applications.

Vibing hard with @anthropic.com

Coming to a theater near you

There's so much pressure — after using a ton of context to discuss the new design of RealCajunRecipes.com Knowing the context is full of our vibrant design discussion, do I open a new session or not? Knowing that the design is variable and I'll be staring at it for the next X years..

Look at that commands page featuring our nearly 700 commands 😍 So useful now and easy to navigate.

We even migrated the #SQLServer Builds Reference and made it an integrated part of the rest of the site dbatools.io/builds We've got Dark Mode now, too 🖤

Our website recently got an upgrade! It was initially built on WordPress in 2016 then after several hacks, was exported to HTML and put on @github.com's Pages in 2020. Now, it's been redesigned using Hugo and Claude Code. Let us know what you think!

Just add this line to ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md: "You are explicitly forbidden from using the 'explore' subagent." You will thank me later.

The project it self can be found here: github.com/AndiBellsted... Maybe "DevDirManager" is not that much of a self-explaining and marketing-effective name... but that was one of the parts not choose by Copilot. 🙃

Officially, I am into vibe coding now. 🙈 Against all scepticism, I decided to stress my GitHub Copilot a bit and I have to admit, the results are somewhere between "interesting" & impressive... The outcome is a little #PowerShell module project. I've call is "DevDirManager".

Did you know #PowerShell has a load of built-in PEBKAC repellent? Learn all about it on Wednesday at the Pacific PowerShell user group where I teach you all you will hopefully need to know to add parameter validation to your code. 🔗 Link:

Hi Klaus and Merrie! WinForms presentation app using GitHub Copilot! \o/ Also, Merrie with the Veteran's Day shoutout 👏🏿. This is awesome. With the proper prompting context, and guardrails, it's going to follow through. ##dotNETConf

GitHub Copilot in VSCode against GitHub Copilot in Rider - this time I'm testing against a large .NET project (IAP Desktop) with the question "explain the various protocol tunneling features in IAP desktop along with the most relevant source files". VSCode still wins easily 🏆

Thanks again to @andrewpla.tech for having me on #PowerShell Wednesday and the PowerShell Podcast recent. Had a blast, always love talking about toast (and catching up with a mate!)

I've been a fan of Material for MkDocs since I was introduced to it through the stucco #powershell module. The stale upstream MkDocs community represented a lot of risk through, so the Material team have introduced a new SSG I'm excited to try. Faster builds and better live previews are 💪

In up-and-coming cool #AI modules, @funbucket.dev has been making AITools: github.com/potatoqualit...

I published the first version of the PSPlaywright PowerShell module. After switching to Claude, I was able to fine tune the help and tests and feel pretty good about it. I’m sure there are issues but give it a play and open issues if you find stuff! www.powershellgallery.com/packages/PSP...

been doing this shit for 20 years and TIL i am so conflicted and ashamed 😭

What happens to all your techy things when you are no longer able to look after them? Your homelab? home network? smart things? @funbucket.dev has created this to help you to help those left behind github.com/potatoqualit...

If you're using the Continue VSCode extension on a regular basis, raise your hand ✋ docs.continue.dev

dbatools had fewer pages and is more important, so I used Claude Code, smarter but $$. For my regular blog, I went with Codex w/GPT-5 minimal reasoning instead since it comes with my ChatGPT sub. I wrap it then just Get-ChildItem *.md | Invoke-AITool -Prompt ./prompts/blog-update.md

Someone was saying, I think @cathrinew.net, that one downside of keeping a blog is that it becomes out of date and it's impossible to keep up. When I'd visit my old pages, I'd sometimes wonder if I should set them private. But check this out! I updated all of my blog pages using PS + $20/sub.

Oh, awesome! For the next 5 hours, you can get a month free of Claude! #DevOps people, add it to your @github.com repo or use it at the CLI -- either way is incredible. I just updated my whole blog with it.

Last night's Azure outage caused a bloodbath testing for all of our @dbatools.io testing on @github.com. Claude took care of restarting them all, no problem 😊

Took me so long to find this song, which I'd heard on countless commercials. Found it years ago after humming it into Google 😌

GitHub Universe starts tomorrow! Tune into the keynote at 9 AM PT tomorrow - you'll be seeing a lot of VS Code 👀 githubuniverse.com

Ughhhhhhhh I'm looking for work. I keep being told I am overqualified. I finally got offered a minimum wage + tips counter service job 6 days a week that will start the first week of November, but my bills are stacking up until then and I'm very stressed. Anything helps. V: reedeliot Memo: 🗣️

For those of you who haven't vibe coded and want to see what it's like, I made a video for you! I also used Claude's GitHub app for the first time and lost my mind. Join me for this slow 1.5 hour Sunday session 😌
