In this episode of The PowerShell Podcast, Andrew Pla sits down with Pablo Correchel, an early-career IT professional who is publicly documenting his PowerShell and learning journey. Just one year into his first help desk role while studying cybersecurity, Pablo shares how consistent practice, sharing what you learn, and embracing beginner questions have accelerated his learning. The conversation explores escaping “tutorial hell,” using AI as a learning tool instead of a shortcut, understanding objects and the pipeline, and why putting yourself out there is one of the fastest ways to grow in tech. This episode is a reminder that you don't have to be an expert to contribute... You just have to start. Key Takeaways: • Learning in public accelerates growth – Sharing small wins and exercises builds confidence, invites mentorship, and creates unexpected opportunities. • Understand the fundamentals deeply – Concepts like objects, the pipeline, Get-Help, Get-Member, and Get-Command form the foundation for long-term PowerShell success. • Use AI strategically – Treat AI as a tutor that challenges you, not a script generator that robs you of learning. Guest Bio: Pablo Correchel is an IT support professional based in Florida and a cybersecurity student at St. Petersburg College. With interests spanning cybersecurity, coding, cloud, and Windows environments, Pablo represents the next generation of IT professionals building skills through curiosity, consistency, and community.

In this level of Linux Out Loud, Nate takes player‑one controls with Wendy and Matt as co‑op buddies for a run‑and‑gun through data disasters, platform drama, and hopeful Linux gaming news. Matt kicks things off with a catastrophic cold‑storage failure that turns into a hard‑earned reminder about backups and the limits of data‑recovery tools on both Windows and Linux. Wendy then opens a side‑quest about Discord's upcoming age‑verification changes, why that's a problem for community privacy and moderation, and what it might mean for the future home of the Lobby of Loudness. Nate rounds out the host updates with Linux Saloon going fully independent, moving show notes and polls onto CubicleNate.com so he controls the platform and the ad dollars. For the main mission, the crew dives into GOG calling Linux its “next major frontier” for GOG GALAXY and hiring a senior C++ engineer to help make Linux a first‑class gaming citizen instead of an afterthought. Along the way they talk heroic launchers, Proton and Wine, and what a “good citizen” GOG client on Linux should actually look like for home‑labbed and multi‑PC setups.

In this episode of the Shift AI Podcast, Scott Roberts, CISO at UiPath, joins host Boaz Ashkenazy for a deep dive into how agentic AI is reshaping enterprise security and automation—both for customers and inside UiPath itself.Scott shares his 25-year security journey spanning Microsoft's early Security Response Center days (including the era that produced Patch Tuesday and the Security Development Lifecycle), product security work across Windows and Xbox, time at AWS, and leadership roles at Google where he helped build the Android Security Assurance and Pixel Security teams and the Android Monthly Security Update process. He also discusses his work in security standards across IPsec, HTML5 encrypted media, GSMA device security, and most recently, contributions to emerging agentic AI security standards.The conversation then explores UiPath's evolution from traditional RPA into a unified platform that combines deterministic automation with agentic workflows. Scott walks through a real-world healthcare billing example where agentic automation increased deduplication accuracy dramatically by handling complex, variable inputs that classic RPA struggled with—while still keeping humans in the loop and feeding outcomes back into the system to improve over time.Boaz and Scott go deep on what's changed for CISOs in the post-LLM world: the need for guardrails, identity and entitlements for AI agents, and the challenge of end users copying sensitive information into consumer AI tools. Scott explains UiPath's approach: enable adoption while using nudges and policy controls to redirect sensitive workflows into enterprise-safe environments rather than relying solely on blocks.The episode closes with an eye-opening look at UiPath's internal “agentic threat analyst” system—an orchestration of 60+ agents that can investigate SIEM alerts end-to-end, generate structured incident writeups, and compress hours of analyst work into roughly a minute and a half. Scott's future-looking takeaway: as AI models evolve beyond “read-only” into potentially “read-write” systems that can update their foundational knowledge, the acceleration could be truly mind-blowing.This episode is essential listening for security leaders, enterprise operators, and automation teams trying to understand how agentic systems change not just productivity, but the entire security operating model.Chapters[00:01] Scott's Security Journey: Microsoft, Google, Coinbase, UiPath[01:33] Security Standards Work: From IPsec to Agentic AI Standards[04:08] What UiPath Does: Process Orchestration, RPA, and Enterprise Automation[06:28] RPA vs Agentic Automation: A Healthcare Billing Deduplication Example[09:17] The Agentic Stack: Canvas, Guardrails, and the AI Trust Layer[10:31] How LLMs Change Security: Data Controls, Access, and Governance[12:14] Internal Adoption at UiPath: AI Tooling by Persona (Legal, Finance, Engineering)[13:13] Code Velocity and Security: Agents Generating Code, Agents Verifying It[15:53] Two AI Security Worlds: Orchestration Platforms vs End-User Chat Interfaces[17:11] Securing End Users: Enterprise LLMs, Nudges, and Browser-Based Controls[19:07] Sovereign AI and Data Boundaries: Keeping Data in the Right Region[21:00] Over-Permissioning Meets Agents: Why AI Makes Old Problems Obvious Fast[22:21] The Next Wave: AI Transforming the Entire SDLC End-to-End[24:53] Security Pitfalls in Agentic SDLC: Misaligned Incentives and Permissions[26:02] UiPath's Agentic Threat Analyst: 60+ Agents, SIEM to Writeup Automation[30:07] What Changes for Humans: Faster “Time to Truth” and Higher-Leverage Work[32:09] Two-Word Future: “Mind Blowing” and Read/Write ModelsConnect with Scott RobertsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottroberts6/Connect with Boaz AshkenazyLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/boazashkenazy/Email: info@shiftai.fm

School leadership isn't getting simpler. It's getting louder, faster, and far more complex: surprise challenges, constant interruptions, a to-do list that multiplies by the hour. This week on LinkedUp, we're joined by educator, speaker, and author Rich Czyz to talk about his new book, Autopilot, and what it really takes to lead without burning out.Rich makes the case for “going on autopilot,” not by checking out but by building smart systems that protect your time, sharpen your focus, and help you operate at your highest level. We dig into practical strategies for transforming your inbox, tightening up workflows, minimizing stress, and creating the kind of structure that allows leaders to think strategically instead of constantly reacting. If you have ever felt stuck in inefficiency, overwhelmed by distractions, or stretched thin trying to do it all, this conversation gives you permission to rethink how you work.---ABOUT OUR GUESTRich Czyz started his educational career in 2003 as a fifth-grade teacher. As an administrator, he first served as a curriculum supervisor and director of curriculum, where he learned that sometimes challenging the status quo is really the only way to do things. Rich currently serves as a Principal in New Jersey, where he enjoys participating in kickball games with students. Rich is the co-founder of the Four O'Clock Faculty blog for educators looking to improve instruction and learning for themselves and their students. Rich is passionate about engaging all stakeholders in meaningful and relevant learning. He is an author, blogger, and presenter.---SUBSCRIBE TO THE SERIES: ⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠YouTube Music⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠Overcast⁠⁠⁠FOLLOW US: ⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠POWERED BY CLASSLINK: ClassLink provides one-click single sign-on into web and Windows applications, and instant access to files at school and in the cloud.

Welcome to a wild post-Valentine's Day hangover episode of Vision Cast! Love is in the air, but so is absolute chaos. Donald shoots his shot and officially asks Stacy to be his girlfriend (she said yes!), while Rachel and George celebrate a massive 11 years of putting up with each other.Aww, how sweet, right?Wrong.Things quickly devolve into an epic, no-holds-barred AI "Song Wars." Phil drops a catchy diss track roasting George, Rachel retaliates with a jaw-droppingly raunchy hip-hop anthem that leaves the whole crew utterly speechless, and George fires back by musically dubbing Rachel a "Bobcat." The AI-generated roasts are absolutely ruthless!To cool things down, JC takes us into the tech corner for a live demonstration of "Nexi," a new open-source AI voice assistant (spoiler alert: it actually works!). Plus, Preston flexes the ultimate bachelor pad upgrade for his new apartment: a literaltalking microwaveBut the real danger lurking on the podcast today is Tallbooth (aka Tally), our brand-new feline studio manager. Tally is ravenous, and his absolute favorite meal is "anyone who ducks out early." This is terrible news for JC, who is notorious for dropping his shoutouts and bouncing before the episode actually wraps. Will JC finally stick around until the very end, or will he duck out early and become the new manager's next snack? Hit play and join the mayhem!Also, here is the link to download the latest tech innovation for your Mac computer.Hopefully it'll advance to smart devices and Windows soon.https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.github.com%2Fseregawpn%2Fnexy_production%2Freleases&data=05%7C02%7C%7Cfd8631b788f944b9164e08de6f6b0f59%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C639070702756235819%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=%2B2q6Ojb%2FMM3jh%2BxAYfmPw1sBKuUmQPofCNuitKOm4fQ%3D&reserved=0You can email the developer directly at: Zasorin.sergiy@gmail.com

How secure are your Chrome extensions and certificate signings really? This episode pulls back the curtain on a massive spyware discovery and exposes the convoluted hoops developers must jump through to prove their identity in 2026. Websites can place high demands upon limited CPU resources. Microsoft appears to back away from its security commitment. What's Windows 11 26H1 and where do I get it. Chrome 145 brings Device Bound Session Credentials. More countries are moving to ban underage social media use. The return of Roskomnadzor. Discord to require proof of adulthood for adult content.

[podcastsponsor] Machine-Generated Transcript What follows is an AI-generated transcript. The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn: In this week’s In Ear Insights. This week, let’s talk about something that has been on Katie’s mind— the differences between cognitive offloading and cognitive enhancing with AI becoming as capable as it is with today’s latest agentic frameworks that can literally just pick up a task and run with it. We talked about it last week on the podcast and live stream, which you can find on the Trust Insights YouTube channel. Go to Trust Insights AI YouTube. These tools are incredibly powerful. You can literally say, “Here’s the project plan,” and just come back to me in 45 minutes. Katie Robbert: Your concerns are, if the machine is just going to go off and do a great job with these tasks, what’s left for us and what does that mean for our own cognitive capabilities and how we might deskill. And I want to highlight what you said—that these things are going to do a quote‑unquote great job. That’s a big caveat. Over the past couple of weeks, especially with Claude from Anthropic, they have launched a lot of functionality into their system. You can use the web version to set up projects and artifacts and have the chat, or you can use the desktop version, now available for Windows and Mac. It was only available for Mac at first; now it's also available for Windows, so it's all inclusive. Everybody gets in on the fun, and you have chat, cowork, and code. One early warning sign I'm seeing is that Claude now has plugins baked into its desktop version. These plugins cover areas like marketing, legal, and executive, and you can even make your own plugins. We made our 5Ps plugin. You can also take the skills you have built on the web version and bring them into the desktop version. You can have a co‑CEO, a voice of customer, a fact‑checker— the one that Chris really likes—and all of these things. Chris, you did this last week as an experiment: a virtual focus group with many different players from our voice of customer. Our ideal customer profile includes small, medium, and large businesses, with roles ranging from directors and managers to executives and marketers. You wanted to create virtual versions of all these personas and have them do a focus group with the co‑CEO, which for all intents and purposes is me, and then review the results—a fun experiment. But my first inclination is, whoa, hold on—a human is missing. If you let the machine duke it out unsupervised and then present the response, that is potentially problematic because you've offloaded not only the manual tasks but also the thinking. The machine is only as good as the personas you program in, with your own bias, whether you realize it or not. It will act the way you ask it to, not the way real humans act, and real humans can be completely unpredictable. We need that unpredictability to get a good result. So are we going too far with offloading human tasks to large language models because it's convenient? Christopher S. Penn: Oh, we absolutely are. Christopher S. Penn: One of the things I discuss with our clients—an education class—is how AI is rewiring people’s brains. I had a fun interaction with a high‑school student locally. I asked how they use generative AI. They said the school banned ChatGPT, so they all just use DeepSeek instead. They have it do everything and have learned tricks to avoid the school's AI detector software, which isn't particularly good. Humans, like animals, take the easiest route because it's a basic survival mechanism. You don't spend more energy on a task than you have to, because in the wild you never know where your next meal is coming from. That's why cats lounge for hours and then become lunatics for a few; the same goes for dogs and humans. Students use the easiest pathway out of a task, especially if it's a task they don't want to do. That is probably where we'll first see off‑loading and deskilling—in the things we don't enjoy doing, according to the Trust Insights TRIPS framework. One of the five dimensions of the TRIPS framework is pain: how painful a task is. If a task is something we genuinely enjoy—playing music, painting, dancing—we won't want to off‑skill it because we enjoy the doing. If the task is painful, like having 28 blog posts due tomorrow and sitting in endless meetings, you'll hand it off to the machine because you don't want to do it in the first place. Instead of procrastinating, AI will do it 96 % as well as you. Does it risk deskilling and losing those skills? Yes, absolutely. Ask anyone under 30 who has not served in the military to use a compass and a map, and you'll see shocked faces because we've forgotten how to use maps. So there is definitely deskilling. The question is whether people are deskilling on tasks that require human review. In the example you gave about legal work, I had four agents converse, and when I read the transcript I learned something I didn't know. I didn't know that legal construct existed, so I Googled it to fact‑check. Katie Robbert: Let me pose it this way—we're deskilling. In the example of having 28 blog posts, or simply not wanting to do a task, maybe it's a generational thing. But I'm old—well, I'm in the same generation as you, Chris. I didn't realize we had a choice not to do things we didn't want to do. Technology and culture have changed how we work professionally, but I still think we should learn how to do things even if we don't end up doing them ourselves. Because let's say I don't know how to edit, stage, and deliver blog posts to a client. I've never done it; the machine has always done it. What happens if the machine breaks? What happens if the models change? Your manager will look to you and say, “You need to step in.” When the machines are down, we still have to hit those deadlines. My concern is that even if we're not the ones doing the work at the end of the day, we should still have a basic understanding of how the thing is done. That ties into frameworks such as the 5P framework—purpose, people, process, performance. If you don't have a basic structure for how something is done, and tomorrow Claude implodes and you've built your whole business around it, you'll be left without insider information. I'm not saying that will happen, but it's a purely hypothetical scenario that makes you ask, “What do I do?” I don't know how to run a focus group, engage with humans for voice‑of‑customer data, or research trademark laws and regulations. You become so reliant on machines that you don't even learn the basics. You don't need to be a legal expert, but you should be able to read something. There should be a basic process so that if the machines fail, a human can pick it up, figure it out, and do it. It's basic redundancy and business continuity. I think we're skipping those backup plans because we're overly confident that large language models will never fail. That confidence is a huge risk for businesses that don't step back and say, “Yes, we can have these machines do the work, but let's also have a foundation for how it's done if the power goes out, the model changes, or it becomes cost‑prohibitive.” So I'm worried about deskilling, but I'm also concerned that businesses are becoming so reliant on software that they forget software is just that—it fails, it's buggy, and it makes a lot of mistakes. Christopher S. Penn: One of the things I strongly recommend is an Instant Insights piece on the Trust Insights website—my framework for this surprise, which I call the four R's. The four components you should have for any project are: 1. Research—knowledge that is written down, not just in your head. 2. Requirements—a document that defines what constitutes “done” at the very minimum. 3. Rules—what is and isn't allowed, such as the Trust Insights writing style that outlines how we should and shouldn't sound. 4. Recipe—an operating procedure, whether AI‑based or not, that is written down. These four documents—research, requirements, rules, and recipe—allow you to delegate work to a human because everything is clear and standardized. The recipe shows step‑by‑step exactly what's supposed to happen; if it's unclear, you'll get wildly bad results. If you take the time to write out the four R's, and they're saved and clear, you can still get work done even if an EMP knocks out the grid or your provider goes down. You could switch providers and still get consistent results because you're not doing one‑off things. This is part of the five Ps—process is one of the five Ps—so no matter what happens, you have the ability to keep going. Doing things ad hoc leads to forgetting how you did them the last time, which hinders repeatable success and scalability. If you have the discipline to build the four R's for any project, even something as small as editing this newsletter article, you'll have the backup you're talking about. Katie Robbert: You're missing an R—the fifth R is Review, which means human intervention. That ties back to my original concern about being too reliant on machines. Even if you go through the four R's and feel confident in the output, you might set an example for team members to skip the review process, assuming the machine's output is good enough to ship to the client. If the client then says, “Did you screw this up?” you could get fired. You need a human review to go back through each stage and say, “This doesn't make sense,” or “This isn't right.” That human review is a big part of the concern, along with redundancy for machine failures. The focus group experiment was entirely synthetic, including me. I would have happily participated as the human to keep it on the rails, saying, “I don't think this is going in the right direction.” Human intervention is essential, especially for core business tasks. We're becoming so reliant on software to deliver outstanding outputs that we think, “The machine did it; I don't even have to participate.” I can just push a button, get everything done, and go get a latte. That's going to be a huge problem. Eventually, natural selection will favor people who remain intimately involved with the software process over those who have outsourced everything to AI. Christopher S. Penn: I agree. In the hyper‑capitalistic hellscape we live in, productivity is the only thing that matters, and people are clearing their to‑do lists as fast as possible, often juggling three jobs for the salary of one. This pressure forces people to outsource their executive function to machines. When you look at newsrooms, for example, clients are under incredible pressure to crank out content, get things done, and move to the next item on the list, to the point where they're so stressed they lose executive function. The more stressed you are, the more cortisol you have, which puts your brain into fight‑or‑flight mode. Your ability to step back, think, and bring out the best parts of your humanity is diminished by that level of stress. So people outsource their executive function to machines. Whether or not you have a clinical diagnosis of ADHD, if you're under enough stress, your executive function essentially goes to hell. Here's a question: for someone whose executive function is impaired by stress or anxiety, is it better to have a machine take on that executive function? Katie Robbert: That goes back to the TRIPS framework—time, repetitiveness, importance. You need to understand the risk to the company. If someone asks you to type up meeting notes, that's a low‑risk, internal task. An AI transcript can do that without outsourcing executive function. The risk assessment depends on whether the task is internal, client‑facing, tied directly to money, involves sensitive data, is part of a regulatory system, or underpins your IT foundation. Companies need to evaluate those risks. Often they design a process where a button loads 20 blog posts at a time and delivers them to the client website. The repetitiveness and time required make it a good AI candidate, but the importance is high because it's client‑facing and tied to revenue. If you post the wrong content or an unedited piece, the client will be angry and you could be fired. So importance isn't just about how much you don't want to do; it's also about the risk to the company. Christopher S. Penn: In a future episode I want to talk about comparable skill levels with AI to wrap up today's discussion. There is a risk and downside to offloading everything, no matter how much pressure you're under. Using frameworks like the Trust Insights TRIPS framework or the 5Ps will help you reduce that risk and identify when a human should be part of the process.

What happens when you finally stop asking permission to be yourself? If you’ve been wondering how to stop people-pleasing as a homeschool mom, this conversation will show you it’s possible. Homeschool mom and creative entrepreneur Latoya shares her journey from living for everyone else to discovering what she actually wants—and why that shift changed everything in her homeschool life. This month’s focus: Nurturing the Nurturer — because you can’t give what you don’t have, and your kids don’t need your perfection. They need your presence. Latoya hit 40 and realized she’d spent decades doing what everyone expected—but had never asked herself what SHE actually wanted. As a homeschool mom, restaurant management graduate, and someone who always made sure everyone else was okay, the idea of prioritizing herself felt selfish. Scary. Wrong. But when she finally gave herself permission to explore her creativity, build her crochet business, and trust her own voice? That was when things began to shift. Her homeschool days became more peaceful. Her kids became more autonomous. And she discovered that choosing herself wasn’t selfish—it was the best thing she could do for her family. How to Stop People-Pleasing as a Homeschool Mom: Latoya’s Journey from Self-Sacrifice to Self-Trust What You’ll Discover in This Episode The Permission You’ve Been Waiting For: Why serving yourself actually serves your family better How to distinguish between what you want and what others expect of you The power of silence and solitude in discovering your authentic voice Why “waiting for the answer” is part of the process From Rigid to Present: Redefining Homeschool Success What a “good day” used to look like (spoiler: checking all the boxes) vs. what it looks like now How to choose peace over productivity for a more meaningful family life Why your kids’ autonomy grows when you honour your own The truth about gaps, “behind,” and what kids actually need to thrive Caribbean Flow vs. Hustle Culture: The cultural pressure to always be “doing something” Why presence matters more than productivity How to give yourself permission to just BE with your people What happens when you stop measuring success externally Creative Work as Life Force (Not Luxury): Why Latoya’s crochet business isn’t “extra”—it’s essential How creative pursuits actually fuel better mothering Choosing fulfillment over financial gain (and being okay with that) Teaching your kids to honour their interests by modeling it yourself The Inner Work Nobody Talks About: Why inner work is gritty, messy, and nothing like social media portrays How to extend to yourself the same compassion you give others The first small decision where you stop explaining and start trusting yourself Why disappointing others is sometimes the most aligned choice “What is best for you, for me is what’s best for them because it trickles into everything else. So the happier I become, the more comfortable I become with myself, the better everything around me gets.”  — Latoya Why This Conversation Matters This isn’t just another interview about homeschooling. It’s about what happens when you finally permit yourself to ask: Who am I beyond the roles I play? If you’re struggling with how to stop people-pleasing as a homeschool mom, Latoya’s story is for you. She’s every mom who’s ever wondered if wanting something for herself makes her selfish. But here’s what Latoya discovered (and what you will too): When you choose yourself, your kids don’t suffer. They thrive. Because they get to see what it looks like to honor your own voice, trust your own knowing, and live from alignment instead of obligation. Your homeschool doesn’t need more curriculum. It needs more of YOU—the real you, the aligned you, the unapologetic you. Connect with Latoya YouTube: Toya in Stitches Instagram: @toya.in.stitches Latoya creates DIY crochet tutorials that go beyond simple instructions—she teaches you to understand your body, measurements, and personal style so you can create garments that actually fit YOU.

Mathias and his company, Byos have built such a thing, and BOY do we have some questions for him. Segment 2: Interview with Wolfgang Goerlich Addressing the nuanced, nefarious threats of AI Sure, we need to worry about AI prompt injection and AI data leakage, but what about the threats to our BRAINS? Seriously, as we start to have daily conversations with this technology, how are they going to shape how we think? What inherent biases in the training, fine tuning, guardrails, or lack of guardrails are going to affect our decisions or how we work? Wolfgang is concerned about this, so he performed a human/AI experiment. With almost 1000 people partaking in the experiment, the results are sure to be intriguing.

In this message, Jordan reflects on Acts 20 and Paul's farewell to the Ephesian leaders to highlight the difference between what we can control and what we can't. He traces Paul's example of faithfully preaching, encouraging believers, and preparing leaders—even while knowing suffering and opposition were ahead. Jordan challenges listeners to focus on their posture, generosity, and obedience, rather than outcomes or how others respond. The message ends by inviting the church to encourage one another, pray together, and remember Jesus through communion as a practical response to Paul's example.Subscribe to AfterWords on  Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Download a copy of the One More Series JournalVisit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.com
