It’s been difficult to receive notifications of Disqus comments on any posts on the blog. As a result the majority of comments went unanswered. I was disappointed that people took the time to leave comments, and I never answered because I didn’t know about it! Recently I was reading a blog post on Async / Await feature of Rust. Getting to the bottom of the post, I noticed the comments section was using giscus.

I’m back from an incredible 4 days at PSConfEU 2023 and wanted to share some highlights of my experience. This was my sixth time attending PSConfEU, and it exceeded all expectations! PowerShell enthusiasts gathered in Prague for 4 packed days of learning and networking. The speaker line-up was loaded with PowerShell legends like Jeffrey Hicks, Rob Sewell, Bruce Payette and many more. I was honoured to present among this all-star group.

I’m just returning from an incredible experience presenting at PSDayUK 2023 this past Friday. My colleague James Ruskin and I had the honour of giving a talk titled “Streamlining Software Management with Chocolatey” to a room of PowerShell enthusiasts.

Chocolatey recently released a new version of the Package Moderation Services sandbox, and it got me thinking. How can I use it in VMware Workstation?

I don’t use VirtualBox, but I wanted to use the box that they created. So, I decided to look into converting the Vagrant VirtualBox box for use in VMware Workstation and Fusion and thus, this guide was born!

To keep a record of changes in my office, I wrote the first post about my office setup in January 2022. It’s now 2023 (Happy New Year!) and that means an update!
