It's amazing how many people either dismiss PowerShell out of hand because it's different, or don't even think about it when talking about Windows commandline support. Getting .NET objects returned, rather than piping text around is awesome

Google may or may not have higher employee satisfaction, but I sure wouldn't trust Glassdoor to know. This is based on an anonymous 20 question survey of "at least 115 employees" at each company, so you know that one of the two data sets on

This is a totally disingenuous comment. From the linked PDF (note: this also occurs on page 7, not page 6, for those who wish to verify): "We discovered that Microsoft’s support website recommends the use of invalid CPs as a work-around for
