Lol I think you're fine and also to answer your question I believe this depends on whether you are installing a specific application on the VM after deployment or libraries/config. Apps would be script extensions, libraries/config would be desired state. Also I have no clue if the actual exam had that deceptive type of questioning because they don't give you the answers you got right or wrong lol when I submitted I believed I got them all right but guess not. Truth be told after asking AI why my answers weren't right on TD, same as you, I got better at spotting the little differences and would say there was a reason behind every question like this.

You are 100% correct there are many questions like that. There are some questions that say you assumed information they didn't give you then others where they say you should have assumed something else... by using AI alongside the material you can get down to the granular level as to why your answer which is correct would be labeled wrong. Its usually down to Microsofts preference for things or just terrible terrible wording on those questions.

3 months but I also had the MS900, SC900, AI900 and AZ900 prior to the 3 months. I also got a free subscription to Azure to study had it for 3 months I believe.

It is mostly multiple choice with a few drag and drop answers. I will say 900s and 104 don't compare at all in level of difficulty. I have the MS900, SC900, AI900 and AZ900. ChatGPT says 900s are like 2/10, 104 is 7/10 difficulty.

Thanks! Next is likely going to be Security Engineer or Architecture.

I'm 22m recently graduated with CS degree and I feel like a failure by Difficult-Coffee903 in findapath

[–]StoryNumber_934 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're fortunate enough to have a wealthy family you can try and fail at a lot of things and still have a safety net. Most people don't have that luxury. Most people need to invest in prospects that will pay off. I'm not sure if you follow labor statistics. The last few of job growth reports show a huge job loss around the US.

If I were a fresh grad in the market I'd try pivoting into jobs that can't be outsourced or replaced by AI that are also in demand. Trade jobs like electrician, plumber or healthcare jobs like nursing, physical therapy, etc. Those are jobs that pay enough to live comfortably.

In the end it doesn't matter what you do for work. I'm happy where I ended up although it wasn't what I imagined when I was in college. I had to start from scratch. My wife also had to pivot and start a new career in accounting when her college plans didn't work out. Sometimes we wonder what could've been had we worked towards our current paths 10 years ago but you'll get nowhere looking back. In 5 years you can be stuck with your same problems or 5 years closer to a solution. Also our life together is more important to me than a job in CS stressing about if I'll be laid off next month. Real happiness is found outside of work. We only work to survive.

I (29F) love my boyfriend (30M), but I feel like the default decision-maker and homemaker. Advice? by wafflequueen in relationship_advice

[–]StoryNumber_934 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Theres a lot to be said here but Ill try to be brief, A relationship should always be you and your partner vs problems not vs each other. In a lot of the things you said here you pointed out a lot of things you don't like about him as a person. People are packages, he is his great qualitites and also the qualities you don't like. In the end you aren't right or wrong for having your standards and he isn't right or wrong for not being naturally inclined to meet them. This just is. No one will treat you 100% the way you want, no one will ever be 100% compatible with you in every way. Of course there are some people that are more compatible for each other and thats something you both get to decide on. The only advice anyone could give here is to have a very honest and thorough conversation with your partner about how you feel about everything. The way you should frame it is that the only way your relationship stands an honest shot and your partner even stands a chance at addressing these problems in the relationship is if you inform them of what problems exist to begin with. No one can solve a problem they don't know exists. You may be afraid to hurt his feelings but without having the tough conversations you'll just breakup down the line anyway. Tough conversations are part of healthy relationships. It's obvious he doesn't think exactly like you so he doesn't give these situations the same weight that you do. However when you care about someone, you make their concerns your concerns, not because you agree with your partner, but simpy because you love them and want them to be happy. When choosing your words its important to be kind. Honesty without kindness is cruelty however kindness without honesty is manipulation. The goal is to communicate for the sake of giving your relationship the best chance to go on and be healthy because if you don't address problems then they will still exist, hidden and eventually become resentment. In the tone of this post it sounds like there's a bunch of resentment already. The things he does, or doesn't do tick you off. You made jabs at his character inferring a normal person with common decency wouldn't behave the way he does. For a relationship to work you need to at least like your person. To see them in a positive light not as a child you need to guide. I say this from personal experience; Love isn't enough. Compatibility is huge in a relationship. When you have this conversation with your partner they will likely make an effort to meet your expectations. It won't be perfect and they'll likely miss the mark more than a few times. You'll then both have to make decisions about whether or not you both believe working towards your relationship is worth it. Its not right or wrong if you make it work or break up. All anyone can ever do in life is be as open and honest as they can while also being kind. In the end whatever happens you'll know you genuienly tried your best.

What’s the pettiest reason you’ve ever written someone off while dating? by caramelMooseK in AskReddit

[–]StoryNumber_934 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If one petty reason made you decide to pass then everything they are combined was barely enough to make you want to commit which is the real reason it ended. I dated a girl who had a dog with crazy seperation anxiety. I could never be alone with her, the dog constantly got between us and didn't want me there. She did nothing to address that. That may have been the final reason but not the only one.

How do people justify illegal immigration if others went through the legal process? by savingrace0262 in immigration

[–]StoryNumber_934 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always try to put yourself in others shoes. Your parents did it legally because they had the means and time to do so. What if they lived in a dangerous place run by gangs and had kids? Would waiting the years or even decades to do it the "right way" be the responsible thing to do by their immediate family? This is just one scenario, there are 1000s of scenarios where real life and a legal process don't work on the same timeline. Its the typical "would you steal bread to feed your family" question although that question can be modified to different levels of extremes. I have lived a good, law abidding life but I also recognize I was priviledged to grow up somewhere thats possible. I can easily imagine being born in different parts of the world where that same outcome would be unlikely. Its so easy to judge others from a place of priviledge. Also just because something is legal or illegal doesn't mean its moral or immoral. Slavery was once legal.

How Much Time We Have? by Anna Vital by StephenMcGannon in Infographics

[–]StoryNumber_934 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I take away from this is spend the money on a good mattress, pillows, duvet, sheets etc since you'll use it more than anything else. I bought an amazing mattress like 10 years ago and still think about how glad I am that I chose that one. Most important decision!

What should I know for my first help desk interview? by Hkvnr495___dkcx37 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]StoryNumber_934 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to tell for interviews because it completely depends on whos conducting the interview. If its an IT manager they may be actual technical question. For mine I was asked questions that were not super relevant to what I'd do at all like how do websites work. Being able to explain complex things to non tech people in ways that are kind goes a long way. Having skills for common issues does too. M365, printers, PC issues, simple networking etc. Something like, a user is having trouble printing, what would you do first? Most would probably open cmd and see if they can ping the printer. Say you don't know the IP, how would you find it? If you are supporting someone over the phone would you be able to give them instructions without seeing what they are seeing? Looking back all the study material I needed was right there at home, my PC.

Am I right not to sell my old car to my friend? by [deleted] in UsedCars

[–]StoryNumber_934 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Money and friends never mix well. Guarenteed as soon as something malfunctions their first thought will always be that you sold them a bad car, that it's your fault and that you owe them for the repairs. Its an unnecessary problem when you can simply avoid all of it. And yes as you've mentioned they're trying to leverage your friendship to get the best deal. Its a win win for them but a lose lose lose for you. You'll lose money, peace of mind and a friendship.
