That doesn't mean I can't get work done.

Working on vacation is totally an American concept.

Visiting the in-laws is not exactly a vacation either.

Heh, yeah I was going to add unless you are in Japan but not on vacation when you are working. Similar to how I did before, had a couple of weeks of true vacation, and worked remotely otherwise,while overseas.

That's the benefit to this type of workstyle. The "need" for a true vacation is so much less. Because I already do pretty much what I want.

Yeah, we talk about that at NTG a lot.... the "work as a lifestyle" type work. A career and job and company that let's your work and your life integrate. The idea of a vacation starts to not mean much. Vacations are conceptually for people who want to escape work and life. But we approach it as... you shouldn't want to escape your job. We try to make working here something people enjoy, not just "good enough for the paycheck."

Are you prepared to test that by offering unlimited paid vacation?

Powershell in a Month of Lunches is a great book to get started with. Don Jones really understands adult learning, so he can really keep you engaged.

I like to mix some more formal training at first with a project in mind. As soon as you learn something in your training, apply it in your project. And then when you are done with the training, continue researching in order to complete the rest of your project goals.

Powershell is interesting because you can make scripts without having a clue what an object is, but understanding about objects is fundamental to learning powershell, so I really would recommend starting with some kind of training rather than just trying to create a script.

@Emad-R said in Using GNU\Linux on your workstation is rubbish:

if your smart you can get Win 10 Home license for 15$ valid but you just need to research

I hope your planning on using it for application development, testing or demoing, because MS gives out those licences like candy, and that's what people sell (illegitimately) for cheap

I'd axe out the preferred qualifications and go back to it just being describing the technology stacks used. And make sure basic qualifications are really the basic ones.

I haven't done much of it with Windows 10, but back with Windows 7, if the peripheral was not officially Windows 7 compatible it could be a real PITA to install.

It sounds like you're missing some Windows drivers experiences. We need to collect and send you all of our 'favourite' peripherals to install.

I'm pretty sure there is an NDR Backscatter setting in spam rules

It's hard to go wrong with Network+. Basic networking is a definable set of knowledge that benefits you in any IT role. It's how our world works, so you can easily see it in use in your life and get your hands dirty.

@travisdh1 said in Tutorial Flow:

@flaxking No, this is never a good way to start, and almost always ends in a non working whatsit when done. If you're writing a tutorial, start at the beginning (dependancies). Look at some of @scottalanmiller's things he's written here, it's what I've based all of my tutorials/walk throughs on.

So why do I see many tutorials designed that way? If it's not done intentionally for some kind of learning benefit, what would cause someone to 'naturally' structure it that way?

It's a bad sign when questions about security from your clients have to go through your lawyer every time.
