@stacksofplates You'd think with all of those certificates he'd be able to jump pass entry level positions. . .
He has zero IT experience, listed skills or certs. The Sec+ is arguably an IT cert, but not one that leads to a job. It's the icing, not the cake. He has not a single IT "skill" cert.
What certs would you consider IT certs?
Ones related to IT jobs. I mean, it's pretty straightforward - does a cert certify you on an IT skill or not. Since those do not (Sec+ is a grey area, but isn't a skill on its own so useless alone) they aren't IT certs. ITIL, for example, is a manager cert. It certifies manager skills, not IT ones.
CEH isn't?
Nope, where does "hacking" skills come into play in IT?
-
CEH isn't like totally crazy, but it's, like the Sec+, just an "icing" that you might apply to a focused IT cert. There is no job for "hacker", what does that even mean? The cert is just silly.

No. Not really. What IT skills does CEH lend itself to or certify that you know?
You mean because it doesnt teach a concept it teaches you how to use specific applications?

Looks like UBNT went live with NodeBB without a much testing.
Lots of issues. They apparently imported everything but things are missing like my Beta access.
Also the forum is slower than crap. Think they have some stuff misconfigured.

Seriously considering installing Korora on my home system with the onboard video card. Then doing GPU passthrough to a Windows machine for gaming. Seems like I would have the best of both worlds in that instance.

Instead of badges and honors they would have AOL CDs and Windows 3.1 floppy disks hanging off their coats.
