𝗩𝗠𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗛𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗻 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲: Last update before flying to Vegas. We’ve made a simple change to the PowerShell 𝙈𝘾𝙋 𝙎𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙚𝙧 prompt for the Network switch overview. We’ve added a Mermaid Diagram at the bottom of the report. We have zero code to create this report. Prompt only. It looks awesome! 👀 Stop by the VMware Explore Hackathon on Monday night, the 25th, see some demos and help create cool prompts. 😎 @vExpert @VMwareExplore #MCP #PowerShell

Got tired of just watching from the sidelines as people struggle to be seen out here in the job market. Every time I interviewed someone, all I wanted to find out was, “Can I get along with this person?” Skills can always be taught. Personality can’t. #FrankyBPodcast
