Had a great time in Chicago this weekend for Blue Team Con.
I spent a fair bit of time walking around downtown both day and night. I used only public transportation. Never once felt unsafe or even uncomfortable. Great city regardless of what some say.

I've sorted out how to ship a #PowerShell Universal app as a module, which allowed me to put the app on a secondary test instance, and it *just friggin works*
Tons of docs so people don't stub their toes. By the end of the weekend, y'all can play too!

#sorrynotsorry for sending Stevie into this rabbit hole.
I spent the weekend playing with two of my favorite tools to come up with something I think is really neat! Using #PowerShell Universal and AutomatedLab I've started a web-based management platform for my web environments.
Super user-friendly way to interact with AutomatedLab!
