Anledningen till att jobbet betalar YouTube Premium åt mig är att någon upptäckte att många evangeliser som gör utilbdningar på nätet har flyttat från de vanliga utbildningssajterna som #Udemy och #Pluralsight till just YT. YT kostar tydligen också mindre. #livetSomITKonsult

PowerShell 7 Fundamentals

More and more we turn to automation in IT to help improve efficiency for our day to day operations. PowerShell has always been at the forefront of automation tools. The courses in this path start with the absolute basics of PowerShell so that you can learn how to automate away your problems from the ground up. You’ll begin with installation before moving on to exploration of the PowerShell language and using your acquired skills to perform tasks from your day to day operations. Finally, you’ll get a taste of writing actual PowerShell scripts to round out your automation skills and toolset. After this path, you’ll be able to jump to more advanced tasks and concepts with different tools throughout the IT industry. Note that this path covers PowerShell 7 and not Windows PowerShell. We have other existing content to cover Windows PowerShell. For this path, Windows is the demonstrated operating system, but PowerShell 7 is supported on Linux as well as macOS.

Is that for real?

IT automation is an ever-expanding need in the IT world and at the forefront is Windows PowerShell. If you want to learn about task automation and configuration management using this versatile tool, look no further. The courses in this path get you up and running with Windows PowerShell and its many facets. You’ll build a solid foundation before branching out into more skills and techniques that will elevate your PowerShell skills. It’s worth noting that the content here generally uses Windows PowerShell as its main exemplar. Pluralsight also has plenty of content covering PowerShell 7 (the most recent version) elsewhere on the platform.

Well, _that's_ fucking dandy…

I've had a multi-year account with
#CloudGuru. However, after they got bought by #PluralSight, I set my account to not auto-renew.

This morning, I get an email from PluralSight saying "You’ve renewed your subscription". Given that I'd set my CloudGuru account to not auto-renew and never set up new billing under PluralSight, this came as a bit of a shock.

Just checked the credit card account I previously had bound to my CloudGuru account and found a pending charge from PluralSight. Contacted the phone number listed on the (pending) charge. Got a call-tree (naturally). Navigated the call-tree to sort out this billing "mistake". Got dumped into a hold-queue for nearly 15 minutes. Finally, the hold music ended and I was dumped over to a "there's no one available to answer your call: would you like to leave a message" automated-response. Uh... You couldn't have just dumped me straight to that if there's no one answering calls??? At any rate, left a message. But this
REALLY feels like a scam. I guess the best way that companies like PluralSight can make money off their acquisitions is to ignore the acquired companies' customers' wishes and just "convert"/renew them any way.

Fuck those guys.
