We are a bunch of volunteers developing the Raku Programming Language as the Open Source language of the future.

We also develop tools, web-services and applications written in the Raku Programming Language.

We try real hard to be nice to each other. You can help too! The only requirement is that you know how to be nice to all kinds of people (and butterflies 🦋). And don't be afraid to ask if you do not understand something.

Its a safety feature not a security feature.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_execution_policies?view=powershell-7.4

The execution policy isn't a security system that restricts user actions. For example, users can easily bypass a policy by typing the script contents at the command line when they cannot run a script. Instead, the execution policy helps users to set basic rules and prevents them from violating them unintentionally.

Like the popup you get when you paste a command with new lines in it. It doesnt stop you from pasting a command that would run immediately, but it warns you that what you paste will immediately run.
