FIN DE SIÈCLE

Posted on July 8, 2022 by Bartek Bielawski

It all started more than 10 years ago, on October 1st 2011. So much have
happened since that day… I’m pretty sure a lot of these things were either
direct or indirect result of that single event. E-mail from support@mvpaward.com
not only made my day – it was a beginning of the crazy ride that ended this
week. Ten years full of meeting interesting people, travelling the world,
co-authoring, authoring, presenting. That day I became the first Polish
PowerShell MVP and man – I was over the moon. Now that this part of my life is
over (well, technically I can return next year, so lets say over for now), I
though I would like to reflect on these 10 years and try to look a bit into the
future.

PSCONFEU – LESSONS LEARNED

Posted on June 12, 2017 by Bartek Bielawski
2

PowerShell Conference Europe was closed more than a month ago, but that time was
filled with the content from that conference. For the first time you don’t need
to remember where to find videos – it’s actually quite hard to forget it. Thanks
to Tobias all videos from this PowerShell conference can be found under URL
(surprise – surprise!) PowerShell.video What is great about these videos from my
point of view (a speaker that is not as experienced as many other presenters,
with pretty wide margin for potential improvements) is the fact that most of the
sessions where record with picture in picture technology – you can see both the
screen shared by the speaker and the presenter in person. In other words: I can
learn from example (by watching the best) and from my own mistakes.

MY PSCONFEU WISH-LIST

Posted on April 25, 2017 by Bartek Bielawski
Reply

PowerShell Conference Europe is just around the corner. Slides are ready, demos
work as expected, repos are hot from pushed commits. Or something along these
lines… This year I’m going to join this great event again. With the same role as
last year – as one of the people that will present about various topics. But
presenting is only tiny part of the whole picture. After all – I’m free to join
other sessions too! And with multiple tracks available to all attendees and
speakers it’s not really an easy choice to make. I decided to blog about few
sessions I’m planning to see, and few that I will miss… for reasons that are
obvious to anybody who ever attended any conference in a role of a speaker.

BACK TO HANNOVER!

Posted on March 5, 2017 by Bartek Bielawski
Reply

Time flies when you are having fun! I’m am sure having fun these days. Another
year started and so did preparations for PowerShell Conference EU. We are going
to re-visit Hannover and I must say I’m already counting down days. Last year’s
conference was a total blast. It all started with big BANG and even though later
there were some small issues, it was awesome. The only problem organizers will
face this year is to leave up to the expectations. And the bar is high, so it
will not be easy to jump over it…

Same as last year I have sessions scheduled, but this year I have three of them.

EXPENSIVE DOT-SOURCING

Posted on February 13, 2017 by Bartek Bielawski

Today a very short post about a concern that I would like to share. It all
started at work, when our internal module went up to something like 12 seconds
to load. And you my ask yourself: what is the big deal here? Well picture this:

Boss stands behind you and asks you: hey, do we have any JIRA tickets about this
change you did last week? Can you find them for me?

Not expecting any issues, you type PowerShell command that should let you
perform a quick JIRA search in CLI, proud of your own creation and simplicity of
it. You type in the command name, a parameter that allows you to specify
J<TAB>QL and… you wait…

BACK ON STAGE – EXPERTS LIVE

Posted on November 3, 2016 by Bartek Bielawski
Reply

It’s been a while since I had an opportunity to stand in front of the audience
and present about PowerShell. The last time I did was in May this year, when I
took part in PowerShell Conference EU. Not long ago I did present for Polish
audience, but that was a remote session. Main difference is obviously the fact,
that presenting to people you see in front of you makes it more two-way
communication than a one-way monologue that remote session usually end up being.
And even though I got some awesome questions during this presentation, it’s also
easier to interact with presenter/ audience when you still get to talk to each
other after you are done presenting – some of the most interesting and involved
questions are the questions asked after the session.

POWERSHELL CONFERENCE EU 2016

Posted on January 17, 2016 by Bartek Bielawski
Reply

Last year I took part in PowerShell Community Konferenz that took place in
Essen/ Ruhr and was total blast. The only issue I had with last year event was
the fact that my German is… as good as my Dutch. So unless German session was
full of demos and code – I was not able to follow it. Fortunately, most of the
sessions were actually of the kind I could follow even if they were presented in
languages I hadn’t heard in my life. I can read code, even if variables may seem
obfuscated. Apart from that there was very nice line-up of people who presented
in English, including super-stars of my PowerShell world like Aleksandar Nikolić
or Bruce Payette.

THE ONLY GOLF I PLAY

Posted on July 4, 2015 by Bartek Bielawski
Reply

I’m a PowerShell geek. And I fancy one-liners (a lot). When I participated in
the Scripting Games in 2011 I did try to solve any advanced problem with
one-liner and once that was complete, I would start investing time in making it
a proper function/module. That’s why whenever I see PowerShell golf contest
popping up somewhere I’m always up for the game. I usually don’t win these but
sole process involved in making something as short as possible (it also becomes
cryptic, but that’s just a side effect) is well worth it.

I CAN RUN, BUT I CAN’T HIDE…

Posted on February 24, 2015 by Bartek Bielawski
Reply

When I started my first real job in IT (almost 15 years ago) it felt a bit odd.
At that time I was spending most of my time on Linux, yet my work required
mainly Windows skills. My work colleague knew my background so I got task that
supposed to be “gateway drug” to get me back on Windows side: updating backup
script that was written in batch. Pure batch: I was not allowed  to install any
of the *nix tool’s ports to aid me in this project. And there were few
significant requirements, and new one arrived every now and than.

OMI: REVISITED

Posted on August 24, 2014 by Bartek Bielawski
Reply

Initial plan was different, but it looks like next Tuesday (well, more like
Wednesday in my time zone…) I’m going to present about OMI for the third time.
This time I will present for Omaha PowerShell User Group. You can find meeting
details (and sign up) here. I must say I’m super-excited. This group is
relatively “fresh” (this will be their 2nd meeting). It’s lead by Jacob Benson
and Boe Prox. And Boe is a person that I “know” for years. We never met in
person, but he was one of few people I virtually known in my early PowerShell
community days. That plus the fact that I learned a ton from his blog. No
surprises, blog title says it all, right?
