Hi #nerds, if I run a #powershell script that takes a directory or a collection of directories as its arguments, the trailing slash in the directory name turns the following single quote into a double quote using evil Microsoft dark magic somehow.
If my script is:
```
param (
[string[]]$inDirs
)
foreach ($dir in $inDirs){
write-host $dir
}
```
and I do
```
pwsh myscript.ps1 'c:\\some\dir\'
```
The result is
```
c:\\some\dir"
```
How do I get it to unescape (or whatever it's doing) the last slash?

From the company, to the #Science #Nerds :
> NSPS capitalizes on naturally occurring high-velocity positrons in the soil. These subatomic particles are products of certain types of radioactive decay and can interact with radioactive isotopes, facilitating their breakdown. By directing positrons toward radionuclides, NSPS accelerates the decay process, reducing the time required for decontamination.
@sqgl @davidaugust @paninid Air-speed is part of the quote, but not “average” air-speed. The quote uses the phrase “air-speed velocity.”

I would like to draw the attention of all the #Linux #nerds and user to this project and ask you to take part in it.
It is a new, not yet produced Linux #phone which can also be connected to a monitor with mouse and keyboard. This gives you a full-fledged Linux for your pocket as well as for the desktop.
I hope we will reach the deadline. We have another 21 days.
David Fincher – „The Social Network“ (2010)
Ein Film von David Fincher, nach einem Buch von Aaron Sorkin, über eine der umstrittensten Personen der Gegenwart. Eigentlich ein „No-Brainer“, dass es sich dabei um ein Werk auf der Höhe seiner Zeit handelt. Doch vielleicht kam er einfach ein paar Jahrzehnte zu früh? Nichtsdestotrotz: Hoch sehenswert!
