- codetrotter 8y agoI am aware that PowerShell is somewhat like this — in fact I started using PS before permanently switching to Linux back in 2009 — but I don’t enjoy PS. Some people like PS a lot I know and that’s great for them but for me it’s not something I am ever going to use again. I found my home with Unix those 10 years ago.
- pantalaimon 8y agoIMHO what kills PowerShell is that it's so incredibly verbose.
- svnpenn 8y agoEven with the built-in aliases?
- int_19h 8y agoNot quite. PowerShell input and output are .NET objects - not just data, but also behavior. This requires both sides of the pipe to agree on the object model and the execution environment. JSON (or another pure data serialization format) is much better in that regard, because then you only need to agree on some basic data structures at the boundary.
