Uhh, because of interest rates. The very thing being discussed here.

The term IT is extremely broad now, and it will depend on your interests, but it’s not all that difficult to get into.

There is quite a large demand now for certain skill sets where large companies that traditionally only hired people with specific degrees for IT roles are now opening those up to people without degrees at all.

Some general roles companies are in demand for now are web developers, data analysts, and cloud services.

Cloud services is also a broad category, but a lot of companies are looking for, and will be in demand in the near future, is a cloud storage engineer/ data engineer (however the company decides to spin it), where you essentially try to optimize the usage of storage the company is utilizing. You can easily learn the basics through AWS and really honing in on their s3 capability.

Anything related to data analyst/science is in high demand due to companies collecting so much data on their customers they have no clue what to do with it all. Data science teams basically figure that out for the company.

Easiest role to get your foot in the door would probably be IT technician/help desk, but in my opinion that’s also a harder one to break out of into other roles. It really depends on the company and how closely those help desk roles are aligned with other departments.

Your entire premise requires sustained cooperation of the whole world to collude and agree on something.

No, and its clear you don’t understand the fundamentals here and you are throwing around baseless stats.

It’s not even about the certificate itself but the trust of who generates the cert. Just about anyone can generate a https cert, therefore it will always be free.

Who’s going to trust a company selling certs for $1000? Now that money is involved, trust is lost and the cert becomes worthless.

Wait. Is this similar to the bill the republicans recently put forth and shut down, but just without all of the immigration and border stuff? And the GOP helped advanc this one?

Who’s easier to convince to change, the FAA or a college student?

This is anecdotal, but I see all of these VR rooms or stores at malls or on outlet areas where you can play with VR heat and have fun. They are almost always empty. I VERY rarely ever see people in them.

There another entertainment venue near me that has bowing and games and stuff. They also have a VR area that I have never seen open. Don’t know if it’s just constantly broken or if nobody is actually interested in it.

What? McDonald’s has been replacing people for several years with technology. You used to walk into McDonalds and there would be multiple cash registers with a person behind it. Now, I rarely walk into one that has more than one register and I see more and more kiosks you can order from inside.

They have an app where you can place an order, you simply drive up and tell them you ordered through the app, and they get your food. That app literally replaced the person that would have taken their order.

One of my ram sticks is shot. Tested each stick individually and only one of them had errors pop up. Will try to see if it’s covered under warranty since it’s only 2 years old.

This is what I was thinking but definitely reassuring to hear. Thanks!

 

I’ve recently been having some memory issues and my PC has been crashing. I’m running MemTest86 on each of my ram sticks and the first thing that sticks out to me is the Ram Config name for the stick. MemTest86 is showing it as “G Skill F4-3600C16-8GVKC” while the sticker on the ram stick shows “G Skill F4-3600C16D-16GVKC”. Is this something normal to see or is there something else going on here?

 

Howie knows how to stretch the 53. You can have 13 players on the practice squad and 6 of them can be veterans, while the rest have to be rookies or 2nd year players. You can elevate a player from the practice squad to the game day roster 3 times without having to release someone from your 53. You can elevate 2 players per a week.

Howie did this last year with both Siposs and Covey and it looks like he is going to do it again this year.

 

The Eagles filled 13 of their 16 available practice squad slots.

 

Here we go!

 

A look at the top storylines for the Eagles as training camp kicks off.

 

Philadelphia Eagles news and links for 7/25/23.

 

Let's project the Eagles' 2023 roster heading into training camp. See which positions are the deepest and which still have question marks.

 

After months of waiting, we’re now just three days away from rookies and veterans reporting to the NovaCare Complex for Eagles training camp. Philadelphia is a Super Bowl contender, and favor…

 

Ahead of training camp, Jimmy Kempski puts the Eagles roster into tiers.

 

Lane Johnson isn't just one of the NFL's best offensive lineman. The Eagles star is also an entertaining personality, one the media can't get enough of.

 

Do the Eagles have any kind of depth behind Dallas Goedert at tight end?

 

Over the next three or so weeks (basically whenever there isn't other news to cover), we'll take a look at every player on the Philadelphia Eagles' roster, and how they fit with the team heading into training camp. Today we'll look at the wide receivers.

I like how the top comment isn’t always the first one. In Reddit, It felt like if you were one of the first comments on a new post, you were most likely going to have a top comment.

Here it looks like there’s better discussion and you have to scroll through comments and get varying opinions on the topic. This can become more difficult as magazines get bigger and start to get more engagement, but right now it’s nice to see several different comments and not the same message over and over.
