[@stevenmullenix5274]

As a developer in Powershell for the last 8 years, this still taught me so much. There are so many facets to what this language can do. Learn it, appreciate it and feel the Power...shell.

I am starting to love powershell. I have been a unix guy for so long but this video has changed my view towards Windows and powershell experience. Very very nice tutorial video

[@JonaRL-01]

I was taking many courses about mastering PowerShell for a year ago, and ¡this is the best course ever!.

[@NeuroBe]

This is the course that taught me the fundamentals of Powershell, I watched this and the advanced one on Microsott Virtual Academy at the time. Although it's from when PS3 was current, it teaches you how everything fits together so that you can easily find your way in newer versions. Things like how do I find available commands, how to use help, how to find properties and methods for each object, pipelining etc. And it's done in a really fun way. If you need a beginner's guide to PS, this is it.

[@EdResleff]

YES...! I watched the entire series and it was very informative. I saved all the links and I watch it over again whenever I need a refresher. Plus Jeffery and Jason make this an enjoyable video series to watch...!

[@EdResleff]

@AJIL It would definitely pull in more audience...!

Sitting in an ITIL foundations course, it was neat to see how it went into the architecture of this software. I only became aware of powershell after it was used as an attack vector on my home network which spurred my quest to get into cyber-security

[@cat19649]

On your home network? That's interesting do you know how it started and what they targeted after?

[@jayendrakowshikpotharaju9567]

Speaking of ITIL foundations…it’s hilarious when you see companies that try to implement itil and devops. They pick and choose the concepts that they like from both…particularly “blameless” but still blameful postmortems

Many decades ago I used DEC VMS for many years and loved it because of the regularity of the parameters, the help system and power of the scripting. I am starting to use powershell and came across this tutorial. I suspect I am going to really like powershell for the same reasons. This tutorial is excellent. Thanks.

IT grad here. I needed this for job interview. Many thanks

[@MunnyLerner]

2:03 is EXACTLY why Powershell is extremely useful. I love *nix and use it exclusively but the limitations of the command line tools is beyond my patience and willingness to bend myself into pretzels. I wish I learned PS years ago and Snover and Helmick make a great team here as they convesationally work through the powershell landscape. I especially appreciate Snover's approach and really grateful for his contributions! 2:25:31 That was gratifying to hear because that's the truth - it's so frustrating... miserable... and they've had DECADES to fix it!

Can you please tell me why we need powershell in big company? I have interview but I don’t know anything about powershell 🙏🏽

I wasn't expecting a quote from Kierkegaard in this Powershell tutorial! What a well read engineer.

[@akogepayo]

For Windows users who are not into Unix/Linux world, the command `Enter-PSSession` is really very similar to Unix' ssh remote sessions being used in Unix since the last century, but PowerShell is I believe is a very powerful, that made Windows comparable if not superior to Unix in managing remote systems. Thanks guys. Section: 3:24:51 The PowerShell in the Shell, remoting

[@fredflintstone505]

It makes kind of close to be comparable, but certainly not superior. Unix/Linux is still superior particularly in remote management. Windows moronic way of handling admin rights is a major drawback. One thing you never, ever do in the Unix/Linux world is go around connecting as root. In fact the ability to do so is disabled by default. The equivalent of root in Windows is admin. You are either an admin or a user with no admin privileges with no way to temporarily elevate your privileges if needed during a session. It’s all on none. So you have to open a Powershell session as admin and/or open one as a user. There no Windows equivalent to the Unix/Linux sudo. Also compared to Unix/Linux Windows is reboot happy. It loves to be rebooted. You look at Windows wrong…reboot!

[@baelhadjhadjaissa999]

Wow, the most amazing fact that's unlike unix like os where stdout is text, the pipeline is actually for object in powershell... That's amazing ❤

[@baelhadjhadjaissa999]

Jeff Snover on Y2K-era server mgmt Unix vs. Windows 👍 25:52 "Unix is very much of a document-oriented OS. Which is to say that a lot of the management is done through documents or files. Whereas Windows is an API-oriented OS. The management is completely different. 26:10 "When I got bash, awk, sed, and grep available on Windows, it did not help. Awk does not work against the registry; grep does not work against WMI; sed does not work against Active Directory. 26:28 "So in Unix, those text manipulation tools are management tools. But on Windows, they are just text manipulation tools; there is not much text, so they did not help. So we had to invent our own stuff. 26:43 "We wanted to invent as little as possible. So we leveraged a lot of the concepts of Unix, the compositional model. But Unix (and I love you Unix guys) has weaknesses as well. And this is an area where we looked more to VMS, DCL or the AS400. [smiling,nodding] *Jason Helmick* [/smiling,nodding] They have very good production-oriented environments, and they were extraordinarily regular in their environments, which is to say you had verb-noun and then this well-defined set of of parameters. I was a Unix guy for a long time."

[@chromerims]

Maybe an example of 3e's emb, ext, exti . . . 30:53 Jeff: What we did was we put personalities on it, which is to say we knew that Unix guys would be coming to this. We knew that DOS guys would come into this. So we have aliases as much as possible. We wanted people's first experience to not be a frustrating one. That they try a set of things, and they just work. 31:28 Jason: The idea was (I love your use of the term personalities) is that it makes it comfortable for whatever environment you are coming from. So that you can get started right away.

[@chromerims]

Jeff Snover on clashing syntaxes of interactive shells vs. those of programming languages 2:25:08 Here's the thing: we struggled with this over and over again. As we started and designed the language in the system, we struggled with saying, "Hey, we want to be interactive and programmatic." 2:25:20 In Unix where we had come from, you have these big separations. You start off with one tool, and that tool fails you. So you got to throw everything away, and you got to pick up another tool. You write it in the shell script, and it too is not powerful enough. So you throw that away, then you start writing in awk, grep and sed, and that's not powerful enough. So you throw that away, then you use Perl. That's powerful enough, but it's too slow. So you throw it away, then you write it in C. 2:25:49 So that's my joke, "Unix is a sequence of failed tools." 2:25:53 We wanted to have one tool that would work [regardless of ] whether you wanted to do it interactively or you want to do this rich systems programming level. 2:26:02 It turns out: that is hard! Never been done before. And we did it. 2:26:11 There is a reason why interactive shells have a syntax the way they do. There is a reason why programming languages have the syntax that they do. So we were able to finally get this nice match between those two. 2:26:33 By the way when we chose a programming language, we chose the C style. So there is C, C++, C#. So we chose that style of things. That is why you have squiggle brackets, versus begin and end, or do and done, or do and od. 👍
