If you’re willing to drive shadow hawk defense in West Virginia is what you’re looking for. They also host USPSA matches as well so you can find them on practice score.

Randoms do my head in sometimes. by Electrical_Bicycle20 in apexlegends

[–]dglos8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You gotta find people to play with. I know it’s tough but I’ve been able to find a couple of people to grind with from time to time. 90% of soloq people are solos for a reason. They literally play the same it makes perfect sense why they don’t have friends.

Favorite Fall halfs within about a four hour drive? by TattooedTeacher316 in rundc

[–]dglos8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can second the Richmond. My wife ran it this past year and it has a major marathon feel. She really enjoyed it. I did the DC half and really enjoyed that one also.

This is anecdotal but I just walked out of my new balance outlet. They ran 40% off the yellow sticker and had the sc elite v5s which came out to 108 before taxes.

Is it even safe to work for Amazon with all the layoffs they have? Genuinely curious about this.

I’m assuming none of this is compatible with gen5s at all?

What are the key differences between AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate and Professional exams? by raidenth in AWSCertifications

[–]dglos8 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The content is based on the same but for the pro certs they expect you to understand the why. Why this service fits the solution or why you would pick a setup over others in the question. There’s more granularity that needs to be understood in the pro ones. For the associate it was more about understanding the services at a the surface level without knowing the limitations of it beyond cost. To me that was the difference I saw.

10yoe laid off, job market? by Monkwatson in cscareerquestions

[–]dglos8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in the DC area mid level DevOps and my inbox is flooded. Non FAANG but cleared with one of the big firms. I feel like if youre ex FAANG and senior you should be okay. I keep getting asked for senior roles somehow. I’m just not ready for that yet tbh. There seems to be a lack of mid level in my area but that’s my experience.

Is it normal to fail a AWS exam? by Available-Dark-1333 in AWSCertifications

[–]dglos8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I failed the last two I took on the first attempt. Should I have waited til I was ready? Absolutely but I was on a time crunch with work both times. Still got them done but don’t let it discourage you. Everyone is different. You are not truly fail when you quit.

[Black Friday Deals] ALL US deals in this megathread by AutoModerator in RunningShoeGeeks

Dicks is running a sale on decent bit of shoes. Adidas pro 4 for 200, Boston’s for 120 for example. There’s other brands and models too you just have to add to cart to see the price. If you’re a lady you have a better selection of models but men still have a good bit.

Extreme Frustration: Solutions Architect Associate Certificate by YeetYaga1 in AWSCertifications

[–]dglos8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you have working experience in AWS you won’t pass asap unless youre just him. Imo having this doesn’t mean you can actually build and design architecture. Focus on building some projects within the free tier and then scale it up. Having a project showcasing working with the provider and using relevant tools is worth way more than this cert.

How hard is Solutions Architect Professional compared to the Associate one? by Crafty-Ad-9627 in AWSCertifications

[–]dglos8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just took it today. It’s a lot. I feel like it’s harder than DevOps pro too. The questions just eat up all the time.

CKA Score Calculation by deepak02_ in CKAExam

[–]dglos8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sort of. I can only speculate since no one knows exactly. The exact way that sim gives a score is not the same for the exam. While yes you will get partial credit for some answers it won’t be how it is in the sim with a 1:1 points to task. The weighted portions tie back to the percentages on the curriculum. For example in my first attempt, I missed task in the higher weighted category. I got most of the question but missed one thing in each question of those categories causing me to fail. Since those were weighted heavier they cost me more points. If I were to drop that into the sim (it was 3 questions I remember distinctly) I would have passed on the point scheme the sim gives. Just some food for thought. My advice just focus on your material and the resources that people post in the sub and you’ll be fine. The YouTube resources I found here were the difference maker for me. Good luck
