It is inevitable to a degree. Obviously this is not the final form and I’m sure the goal is to make a more fashionable solution that fits into their phone/watch/airpods kind of edc strategy. But no doubt we’ll have a future where info is right there if we want it. This thing is the foray into developing that eventual product for Apple. To me it looks real dumb, but a sleeker version in the future that looks like glasses…well shit it might be nice to watch a show while washing dishes idk.
A+ Cert in IT is fairly basic and isn’t all that useful besides a general overview of some aspects of the field. However, the most valuable portion of the cert is on troubleshooting methodology and that carries you through the rest of your career. It’s pretty common in a nutshell, try known fixes to previous issues first, then work from simple solutions (check power/cable connections, reboot, etc) to more complex solutions (reformat disk, clean wipe, etc).
The amount of times I’ve been on a million dollar salary engineering troubleshooting call and things like “checking that the credentials are working” get skipped in favor of looking for an issue in a newly written script is hilarious and happens far too frequently.
It’s not that simple solution are necessarily the most likely but that you can rule them out quickly.
It’s a skill like you say, just funny how that cert always comes to mind (it’s the entry level cert for IT for people not familiar).
I like apple better tbh. Some things I like more about Spotify but overall Apple keeps playlists fresher for me. Spotify plays the same stuff over and over.
We need chain of custody data laws. If FB sells your data they’re responsible for keeping a chain of custody as to who they sold it to and requests for removal need to follow that chain down with regular audits and stiff fines for noncompliance.
You don’t need surveillance, if anything that just opens up an avenue for espionage. What you need is AUDITS. Audits fucking suck but they keep everyone accountable. You back up your auditors with strong penalties and clear guidelines and you’re good.
No spending should occur without an auditing plan on how to ensure you’re getting what you paid for.
Truly should be called Fiscal Conservatives right in the name. We actually do need a party that is focused on reform and efficiency which is a great counter to the Democratic party. But I think that would have to be a fresh upstart party not one built out of the current GOP.
I speculate it is a test product to work towards ubiquitous ar glasses in the future. Basically to figure out the big problems, produce a few good apps, etc. before trying to make the true product.
MS is thinking it helps their legal argument if the FTC comes sniffing around their 2k layoffs from Activision/Blizzard
