Bread that is sweet, I'm translating that literally. We call those pan dulce here (like all of those, even though each one has a different name) Thank you for coming to my ted talk have a nice day

Actually drinking my coffee now. Kept getting distracted and forgetting to go get it.

Finally done posting the "important" bits of the new CompTIA A+ training. Skipped over loads and loads of clearly bench stuff or filler. Tried to limit it to the parts someone going into IT could actually use.

if they are taking the certification test, then you shouldn't really skip.
I agree a lot of A+ is bench/not very important. but at the same time if you're taking a test on the full curriculum then you need to study the full curriculum. -

Added a new training category so that we can organize that type of material better rather than grouping it under careers.

The A+ is not foundational to the IT field. So if you are using it as an educational tool, skipping is best. If you are using it for certification for another field, then skipping is bad. For for IT folk, the idea behind the stuff skipped is that it is literally wasting your time versus actually learning something useful.

So none of your interns are taking the certification exam?
Sure, I agree .

But what if someone in the community wanted to take the certification exam? -

I've seen many job postings that say you need to have at least A+, Network+ , Security+ before applying. -

As Scott's said many times before - if it's an IT job, and they are demanding A+, then they really don't know what they are looking for, and likely you want to pass on that company anyhow.

I remember that discussion, now that I think about it more.

If anyone actually wants it, then they go out and pay for it and take it.
No one is going to spoon feed you.

No, that would be silly. Even ones that would eventually do some bench work, the A+ is useless for enterprise bench work and is focused on consumer bench. We are not a bench company, nor a consumer one. So the A+ broadly doesn't apply in any way to us as a company, or IT interns looking for IT careers.

If we knew of someone doing it, adding in those links at that time is trivial. And the links to get to the material through a secondary link are there, and knowledge that the topics are skipped is there. If you check the page, they are listed but not linked. So should be super clear that they exist and how to get them. But if someone wanted to do it, and they mention it, adding them is easy.

People are taking down a huge pine tree that's in my house, sadly it's become very dangerous
See you on the other side beautiful green dude
