Wierd behaviour with using 'Dir' as an alias for my own function
Sounds like a bug, you should report it to PSReadLine. I believe PSReadLine and not PowerShell is the one that handles tab completion here, it sounds like it's caching the alias target so still thinks it is completing Get-ChildItem.

DirectoryPredictor - Plugin module for PSReadLine to actively search the current directory for matching files
I then used PSReadLine's GitHub to understand how they made their own module, shared data with Cmdlets and everything inbetween. Which got me the rest of the day.

Keyword search through PSReadline command history with '#' operator?
Highly recommend checking out the team’s sample file: https://github.com/PowerShell/PSReadLine/blob/master/PSReadLine/SamplePSReadLineProfile.ps1

Using PowerShell for non system-administration
I have a hotkey that converts aliases on the command line when I hit alt+% That makes it easier to paste into discord or wherever. Why % ? I'm not sure, that's what what PSReadLine used

New PowerShell Version - v7.2.0-preview.6: [7.2.0-preview.6] - 2021-05-27
Just a bit of a heads up. The PSReadLine 2.2.0 beta 1 and beta 2 do not work with this release so either you can downgrade to PSReadLine 2.1.0 or stay on PowerShell 7.2.0 preview 5. The PSReadLine 2.2.0 beta 3 will solve the issue.

How to solve "Update-Help: Failed to update Help for the module(s) 'PSReadline, WindowsUpdateProvider' with UI culture(s) {en-US} : One or more errors occurred. (Response status code does not indicate success: 404 (The specified blob does not exist.).)." ?
The PSReadline update-help failing is new and should probably have an issue filed on their github, assuming there isn't one already. The failure on "WindowsUpdateProvider" has been around for years, you're missing help for these cmdlets without it

Using PSScriptAnalyzer to check PowerShell version compatibility - Building custom compat profiles
I am looking to build a custom profile for a ws2019 with ps 7.2 + to use to check my scripts, i have tried using the compat collector https://github.com/PowerShell/PSScriptAnalyzer/tree/development/PSCompatibilityCollector and running the build.ps1 script there but I do not see an output for my commands and the script text doesn't provide much clarify to me at least.

What open source tools do you use to check the security of your PowerShell scripts?
PSScriptAnalyze is a static code analysis tool that checks PowerShell scripts for best practices and potential security issues. It is available on GitHub and can be installed as a module in PowerShell. https://github.com/PowerShell/PSScriptAnalyzer

PSScriptAnalyzer
PSScriptAnalyzer is a static code checker for PowerShell modules and scripts. Runs a set of rules that test the quality of PowerShell code against best practice, then warns about potential code defects and suggests potential solutions. xXxLinuxUserxXx likes this linter "to get unified codestyle in the scripts."

I made a Dell Command Script for Intune, thought others may find it helpful.
Not a windows admin and more like a programmer but i would suggest to use some linter (https://github.com/PowerShell/PSScriptAnalyzer) to get unified codestyle in the scripts :)

Smarter autocomplete
This one is a real problem. When I reference a type which is defined in another file in a class, I get an error in my vscode. the class works but the PSScriptAnalyzer doesn't know that the type is imported. I found this github issue which is about supressing the issue, I tried that and couldnt get it to work but I'd rather that it just recognized the type from the other file https://github.com/PowerShell/PSScriptAnalyzer/issues/1041

Who uses Visual Studio Code for PowerShell Scripting?

help with add-newuser profile names
That's some sloppy code. Wmic is deprecated. You shouldn't put unencrypted passwords in scripts. You shouldn't use write-host anymore. $null goes in front, etc. Try using https://github.com/PowerShell/PSScriptAnalyzer to ensure decent code. Also write code in vscode. Also read https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.localaccounts/new-localuser?view=powershell-5.1

Module workflow in VS Code?
I discovered the Invoke-Build build system, PSScriptAnalyzer for linting, and Pester for testing/mocking. I wrote a GitLab CI/CD pipeline that takes advantage of all of this to push releases to our company's PSRepo. I also discovered the Plaster template system for scaffolding new projects, and created a custom company template for standardizing our repo structures.
