in PowerShell

How I know

If you can answer yes to any one of these questions, maybe it’s time you took a serious look at what PowerShell might be doing to you.

I answered yes to all of them.

  1. Do you use PowerShell because you feel it is the coolest thing out there?
  2. Do you think of PowerShell whenever you come across any problem or task to solve?
  3. Do you find yourself talking about PowerShell with your friends or demoing it to them?
  4. Have you begun to scripting in the morning, before work?
  5. Do you try to make all your scripts one liners?
  6. Did you ever try to stop using PowerShell or using it less – and fail?
  7. Does PowerShell make you feel like you are a better IT professional?

Maybe it’s time for an intervention.

Kirk is working his way through it too.

You might be a junkie, if the first thing you do when testing out a new programming language is to write a interpreter in it.

Oops … part of my text was not HTML-escaped.

That should have said:

You might be a ‘language X’ junkie if the first thing you do when testing a new language is to write a ‘language X’ interpreter in it.
