With no transcript and strictly no sound allowed to be played at my workplace, it then is literally impossible (and I do mean literally: we have no physical speakers of any kind attached to our PCs) for workers like me to know what the desired answer is supposed to be. Instead we are going to try to use the visual clues in…

2ndz vs zhceepS poll link is missing/broken.

It's also QC for their marketing copy. If typical users don't understand concepts or otherwise react in unintended ways, the forums are fantastic at getting that kind of useful feedback.

asheppard970​ That's fair, it's certainly true that internet speeds at the Enterprise are no longer faster than home connections without exception. You can certainly buy gig (or higher) internet circuits, but they are expensive. However, Enterprise still is king when it comes to internal links, connecting devices via…

I tried running back at the beginning of the month. It ran for 6 hours and didn't do anything and I haven't bothered to try again.

Well that is very nice to know, but there are some of us who literally cannot hear videos/music/sounds etc. on our work PCs. No one in the company has speakers attached to their PC because corporate policy strictly forbids it. I may not agree with that policy, but that's how it is here. So for people like me, we are going…

The release notes make the answer far more obvious, however if you are already familiar with NTA at even the most basic level, there is really only one possible choice. The product page for NTA linked in the hint does not highlight the answer as a new feature, it is simply stated as a feature.

For those of us who didn't catch the reading of what the award was for during the announcement, could that be explained too? I remember hearing the Class Valedictorian award was for the person who had the most training in the past year, but I can't remember any of the others (and I seemed to have missed them talked about…

Typo in today's question, "databased" should be "databases."

I'm extremely confused, how is today's answer NOT Network Insight? The video links to a Network Insight video, the views and dashboards show performance and firewall rules... the only thing I'm missing is that we can't listen to sound here at work, so if there is something in the transcript that explicitly says, "Yeah,…

I can see how today's question could be correct either way depending on how you interpret "only". Please re-write for clarity.

If a dark theme is available for a GUI I always use it as it is much easier on my eyes, even during the day. All of my terminal emulators are manually configured for Solarized Dark, or a similar variant.

Agreed, my intuition was correct on this one, you don't really need the hint, but the hint is kind enough to confirm what you would think is right.

My first instinct is that the "all of the above" option is what the question wants as the answer, however a strict compare to the hint provided does not list "externally defined remediation programs" at all therefore it seems that A, C, D, would be the correct answer. I am not bothering to answer this question until the…

There were no Closed Captions for this video. Like many of us, I don't have sound at work, so I rely on CC or transcripts, neither of which are available for this video. Otherwise, I have to use a different computer with headphones at a later time, which is inconvenient because I always forget to look at this at home, I…

Nah, it's quite clearly in there plain as day. CTRL-F will actually take you right to it. The answer is also the "most correct" and intuitive.

Advice to past self (and future self): you don't know everything now, you won't know everything later. You will often learn what you need to know in the moments when you need it. Back in 2015 I started working a job where I was the sole sysadmin, network admin, storage admin, essentially I handled all IT infrastructure. I…

Can personally vouch for the deliciousness of the Willoughby Peanut Butter Porter, I am very much not a porter fan in general (or stouts either for that matter), but that one is fantastic! May have to take a look at those other two you mentioned...

As far as I know, most homelabbers are just recently (within the past 2-3 years) starting to adopt 10G, with maybe some fibrechannel sprinkled in here or there. Anything above 10G is prohibitively expensive for home, even if you inherited old switches and servers with higher capability. I'm sure we'll see some 40G stuff…

Woah, I actually won something! Thanks Wendy!

Thanks @ebradford, I was in fact referring to today's question. I was able to find yesterday's answer without issue, finding it via a similar search process to what I used to try to find today's answer. Your insight explained where to find the answer for today's question and you're right, that post had a lot of useful well…

Three hours in and still going...

Quite right. I didn't "miss" any questions that I answered this month (and I have missed plenty in the past), but I answered those questions "correctly" because I chose the answer that the question wanted. There was at least one question this month that was flat out wrong, unequivocally, however I still got points because…

@"cnorborg" Yeah, I think you are exactly right; before there were two totals for points. One was lifetime earnings (to keep track of what level you are at) and the other was a balance available for using in the store. It looks like only the store balance has transferred, not the lifetime earnings number. @"CourtesyIT" is…

Honestly, I think either outcome is pretty useless! Which is all of the fun!

Hey jcrhoten​, you might double-check what is listed in LOSA, I see a /26 and a /16 in there, not two /16's. So to answer your question, yeah, I think you read the subnetting wrong. It happens! I've missed some questions here and there because my eyes tricked me.

I missed today's question, first one I've missed in quite some time. Two critiques: the hint provided is very poor. Since the hint page is just a search bar essentially, I opted going simple and typed "ITIL" which produced three results, noted below. That was my answer. It was wrong. Looking at Incident Management, ITIL is…

I've heard this story before, I want to say from Stephen Levy's book "Hackers", and it truly is a classic.

Used our own intelligence? That's rather insulting to all of us. You're level 12, so I'm assuming you do the monthly quizzes, which means you should know the answers can be extremely ticky-tack at times, to the point that if the answer isn't in the copy, even if your own intuition tells you otherwise, you should absolutely…

asheppard970​ I absolutely agree that the Data Sheet does a good job at describing the product more thoroughly, but my critique is leveled solely at product page that was used for today's hint. People like you and I will read the data sheets in the real world, but managers and C-level folk are only going to read the…
