Yeah, those that know me, know that I'm not the biggest fan of Skynet. There are definitely some things in the AI world that are making people defer to it, rather that traditional methods of getting help. However, to me, this seems much like blaming the screwdriver manufacturer for injury...

My qubits can hardly wait. :)

Congrats on your win, Amelia!

Check out my post last year on this - links, a screen cap, and instructions.

You're right about that, pally. That's why the social media companies rake in tons of cash while taking your most valuable asset - your time, while doom-scrolling the AI slop and half-baked narcissistic content from twenty-somethings who aren't smart enough to get IT certifications.

There's nothing in the On24 platform that I can see when a participant watched a particular video - only perhaps when the completed the video and earned their certificate (which is why I always tell people to get their certificate right then and there, in case there is a discrepancy. CompTIA's...

Did you *just* complete them? Because if so, I'm afraid you wouldn't qualify for a voucher. You would have needed to complete all the sessions by October 23 (two weeks after the last scheduled session) in order to qualify.

Yeah, just make sure you use your alternative alias - the one that purports you to be a 50-something Innuit woman with ten kids, living near Nome, Alaska.

Exactly. I have a plum, pineapple, cherry, raspberry, and grape pyment that are now aging nicely.

Man, with what you've taken, you passing is the smart money. Did you go through @jasoneckert 's TTT ahead of it? Congrats on passing. That's another one! /r

Krebs had a great posting regarding the Superbox, supposedly, to provide free streaming access to just about everything you can imagine. But...when it's free, YOU are the product. The sad thing about it is that folks are going to probably buy these things up. Meanwhile, it might be an...

One of these days, I'll perhaps retire myself. When I do, I shall take off my fedora, go into the country, and write Japanese haiku... ...without the aid of a laptop or ChatGPT. /r

Well done! Congrats!

Given your background and experience, I don't think you're going to have much of a problem with 006. Pretty sure you brushed up on containers (Docker/Kubernetes/etc) and all the fun that entails, as well as AI topics. I think you'll be fine. Good luck and have fun with the exam. /r

We had a training house here in Colorado Springs that promised A+, Net+, and Sec+ in 20 weeks. I laughed out loud, but was a little angry because unless the student is remarkably astute or has had prior training, there's no way you get all that in 20 weeks. That company is no longer in...

Well, the challenge is that, frankly, they're a business and they have to at least make enough revenue to pay their people, even if it focuses on marketing the brand into the industry. I think it's easy to armchair quarterback the problem, but none of us know, truly, what goes on in the...

I'm afraid a lot of things adjusted over the last few years, with the acquisition of LabSim, the divestiture of the training business from the membership organization and the like. Such is the nature of business. Those of us in Higher Ed, particularly in the For-Profit side of the house, see...

Even in Higher Ed, we have problems with students deciding to just drop out of school and discontinue their training. I'm afraid this has been a problem for quite a while - seems students are more non-committal these days. All you can do, I think, is focus on the students that want to be...

You're going to want to reach out to your Business Development Manager to get access to any training materials. We're not going to have materials that you'll need. I know this doesn't help much, given that you're starting your class today, but that's where that is.

Congrats!
