I present the Ohio Burger. A bacon cheeseburger on a PB&J. You cannot talk ill of it unless you try it or have a peanut allergy.

Summit is one of the best investments in your career you could ever make. Early bird tickets are on sale @ powershellsummit.org. I'm teaching you about building modular @powershelluniversal.com apps & the new PlatyPS module for documentation. Dozens of other awesome topics await! Join us!

Small update in PowerShellRun v0.16.0. If ScriptBlock or Function entries have default parameters, you can see and overwrite those values with their "Invoke with arguments" action. We could think of it as a snippet manager. github.com/mdgrs-mei/Po...

Meetings just got more tolerable. New bar: acquired! 😂

This is the earliest I’ve ever had my material for Summit “ready” since I’ve been speaking at the event. Will I poke it until 10 minutes before I take the stage? Absolutely. But…..I’m ready in terms of things I need to show in demos! I’m so excited, come on, April 13!!!!

Playwright is better than Selenium. Fight me.

A bunch of other @chocolatey.org folks and I will be there! This is one of my favorite conferences of the year, every year. Attending is a reunion of friends and an excellent opportunity to sharpen your skills.

Want to learn how to build and share apps like this for @powershelluniversal.com? I'm presenting at the #PowerShell & DevOps Global Summit on just that! #PSHSummit is THE PowerShell conf in North America, and a great time. Tickets on sale @ powershellsummit.org. Don't wait!

My wife took the kid to an event, leaving me alone. Was bored, wrote a library system for my @powershelluniversal.com instance called Bookworm, then decided to open-source it! Had to write a custom barcode component for it (react sucks, fyi). Enjoy! github.com/steviecoaste...

Mom has been hard at work inputting recipes into the @powershelluniversal.com Cookbook app I made her. Her latest addition? My chocolate cake recipe! Want a cookbook app in your PowerShell Universal? Install PowerShellUniversal.Apps.Cookbook from Platform > Gallery! github.com/steviecoaste...

Added backup functionality to the herd mgmt app I wrote for the farm using @powershelluniversal.com’s Automation platform. Simple scheduled thing for now, may put a backup settings feature in the app itself later. Baby steps. 🙂

Y’all these nachos my wife made tonight. This is very nearly almost actually probably a religious experience. #Foodsky

My #PowerShell Universal cookbook app got an upgrade today. Categories display as chips only if RecipeCount > 0! Also added ability to delete a recipe from its edit modal. Navigation now collapses as well, making use on mobile a much nicer UX. Repo: github.com/steviecoaste...

What do you get when you let ChatGPT call your plays? The Ohio State - Miami game.

I’ve got plans for this lil beauty

Check out my latest side quest (aka distraction), 🎚️ Mux Minus! Split a music file into multiple tracks or stems. Great for making a vocal-free track for karaoke. A while back I was messing with the python-based Facebook Research "demucs" project and I decided to write a web application around it.

At Christmas, after seeing the Herd Mgmt app I made, mom asked if I could do a cookbook app? Naturally, I said yes, & I'm pleased with how it turned out! Requires pwsh7 and sqlite3 You can check out the repo on GitHub: github.com/steviecoaste... Happy cooking!

Considering buying a soda vending machine for the barn.

My dad sells custom beef and hogs for butcher. I started to streamline the process with another #PowerShell Universal app, allowing folks to place their order online. Still need to wire up the cut sheet functionality, but design is hard. So far, so good though! #VacationCoding

They don’t make a commercial here management software that’s simple enough for my dad to use. Thankfully, I fake it as a developer and know what #PowerShell Universal is, so I wrote him one. Naturally, it’s open source. (But not yet on the gallery. ) Explore what it can do at:

The Christmas season brings out the kid in me. While it's often a time of gifts & family, it can be a time of joy w/ friends too. And pair programming /w friends brings me great joy. Some friends (& now colleagues!) & I wrote this little toy 7 years ago! Enjoy! github.com/steviecoaste...

"If I had an endpoint for this, that would make things easier should we get a device capable of webhooks". One evening later...... "Oh, I may have gone a bit overboard."

PowerShell Universal makes it just silly simple to make really really powerful API endpoints. I cannot stress enough how much fun I have every time I use this product. It’s just fantastic. Absolutely fantastic.

And now my little herd mgmt project has a way to do invoicing when dad feeds out calves for other people. Days on feed and any health items on a nice crisp invoice. I have entirely too much fun with PowerShell Universal when I get an idea in my head. 🤣

I had the day to myself so in natural me fashioned I made a cattle management platform for my dad in PowerShell Universal. I doubt he ever uses it but I had fun burning 40% of my GitHub copilot premium requests on it.

If you’re aiming to elevate your career in 2026, the PowerShell + DevOps Global Summit is the perfect place to start. Early Bird tickets are officially live—secure your seat at the lowest rate today. 👇🏾 www.powershellsummit.org/tickets

I cannot overstate how great this conference is for you and your career.

I'm gonna take a crack at solving some Advent of Code puzzles live using #PowerShell on Tuesday evening, 7pm Pacific. Please do come by and laugh at how long I scratch my head wondering why my code works fine on the sample input and not the real input like I do every year 😅

In 148 days the premier #PowerShell event in North America kicks off in the PowerShell and DevOps Global Summit. This is a can’t-miss opportunity for you to learn from industry experts, network w/ friends old and new, and form lasting conn. You *will* level up your career by going. So go!

I’m an adult with my own money who loves slushies. Bet your ass when I saw a pallet of Ninja Slushi machines at Costco on a pallet I made sure there was one less!

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:

Just wrote a #PowerShell DynamicParam and now I'm gonna go bathe in mineral spirits.

Look, I'm not saying you *need* a parachute to run #PowerShell scripts, but you should make the consumers of your code feel like they don't. Join me next Wednesday at the Pacific #PowerShell user group to learn about adding parameter validation to your scripts! It's PowerShell with Parachutes!

The 2026 PowerShell + DevOps Global Summit OnRamp Scholarship applications are open until November 17, 2025! If you’re new to #PowerShell, #automation, or #DevOps, this program is made for you. 👉 www.powershellsummit...#PowerShell,#automation,#DevOps,#PSHSummit 1/3

Heads up! I’m presenting for my friends at the PNW #PowerShell user group next week about parameter validation! This is a critical thing to master no matter where you are in your scripting journey. Join us for Cliff diving with PowerShell (And other bad ideas) at the link below!

In my opinion, #PSHSummit 2026 boasts the best speaker lineup and schedule since 2019. There is no better place to learn PowerShel & DevOps-related content in North America than at this event. Tickets are on sale now, and you'd be doing your career a disservice by not attending.

Remember when people thought #PowerShell would take away jobs? @allwayshype.com draws a great parallel between that moment and the current wave of AI anxiety. Her reminder: “You’re not getting paid to write code. You’re getting paid to think. You’re getting paid to solve business problems.” 1/2

Might not give this rental back

Charlotte is my Chicago. This friggin airport.

AI might hallucinate the crap out of something, but when it comes to adding help to your #PowerShell code, it kinda has that stuff on lock! Consistently, the help it generates is well-formed and often has more lines than the actual code!

This is definitely a new record for me. I just pushed the initial commit of code I plan to use for my #PSHSummit session at the #PowerShell Summit in April. Now I have months to let it rot before I finish it in my hotel room.

Recently on Discord I saw some talk about watching for file changes. I whipped up a quick Wait-File function that allows you to setup a FileSystemWatcher in #PowerShell to monitor for specific events (Files added/changed/removed) and perform an action when detected. Perhaps you may find it useful:

I'm very excited to continue to drive PowerShell Universal at Devolutions! By joining Devolutions, we're going to be able to scale and enhance PowerShell Universal in new and awesome ways. Look out for my blog post later today.

PowerShell Wednesday is live today at 2PM ET / 1PM CT. @chagercoc.bsky.social will show how to use AutomatedLab to build your own #PowerShell labs, starting simple and moving into advanced setups with roles and custom configurations.

I am exceptionally grateful to have been selected to speak at the #PowerShell Summit in beautiful Bellevue this coming April! We'll be talking PlatyPS with @sdwheeler.bsky.social and learning how to deploy PowerShell Univerall apps as #PowerShell modules! I hope you can join us!

Anyone here in my #PowerShell community have a PlayStation Portal and have feedback? I travel a lot for work and this would be great for whilst I’m away!

Y'all, the next @chocolatey.org Unwrapping Chocolatey is hands down my favorite one I've helped put together. We'll be talking about streamlining your baseline, integrating Chocolatey into your imaging process with the help of some awesome #PowerShell. Please register to attend, I can't wait!!!!

I had fun recording this episode! And totally visited a barber immediately afterwards
