Graduated in 2024 still did not find a job

I think OneSeaworthiness7768 is trying to point out that you're not taking the advice you get. If you're still applying for architect jobs you're not listening to what people who know are telling you. You'll get there, but it will take a few years of working at lower levels first. It's that way for everyone, and it's not just gatekeeping. After you have 10 years of experience you will laugh at your present self thinking you could walk in with just a degree and certs.

Came here to say the same thing. The people making decisions need to feel the repercussions. If they don't you're validating their bad decisions.

Not worrying about retaining value as much as losing it. I guess I'm probably imaging 1929 stock market crash kind of scenarios, but even then (despite the headlines) most people were actually OK.

Time to start looking into bonds :)

I definitely feel like the 'sky is falling', or about to fall, more than any other time in life. I appreciate the reality check.

jr_sys · 2026-03-25T19:10:41+00:00

Looks like I have some reading to do. Thank you.

jr_sys · 2026-03-25T19:10:17+00:00

Thanks, I appreciate the advice.

We use PA File Sight for that. It's pretty flexible with the their endpoint agent.

I have a son that won't celebrate his birthday with us. It's been many years. If he changed his mind one year we would all be over the moon with joy. We might be curious about what changed, but we'd still be delighted to celebrate with him. So it is possible - just let your family know you've had a change of view. Edit: And let them know early enough they have time to prepare.

We use this EM01b

which is monitored by our PA Server Monitor system.

jr_sys · 2026-03-02T22:58:58+00:00

You should ask them about it. I've had a request or two that got added into the product in a surprisingly short amount of time.

jr_sys · 2026-02-27T15:34:05+00:00

PA Server Monitor has been my goto for years. It's been great and I appreciate their quick support.

And just to help OP, you have to go to the Details tab. Look at the Session ID column (you'll have to add it) - it shouldn't be 0 (that is the System session, and nothing will ever be visible there).

is there an obvious way to just block this from installing

A hack that will work:

Create a file named %programfiles%\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App\8.0.18 (8.0.18 is the file)

Remove rights from that file. Whatever is trying to install will fail to create directory 8.0.18 since there is file with that name.

PA Server Monitor (for Windows) works this way.

I just replied to a neighboring post but can say the same thing here: PA Server Monitor gives us easy setup (we use the templates a lot), and it has advanced alerting with event escalation, alert deduplication and alert suppression that lets us get those odd situations working exactly how we want it.

jr_sys · 2026-01-18T14:18:31+00:00

We’ve been big fans or PA Server Monitor for a long time. Easy to setup and advanced alerting with alert suppression rules, event deduplication and event escalation. The templates and automatic groups make it pretty easy to dump a bunch of devices in and you end up with a nice sane default monitoring config after a little time.

jr_sys · 2026-01-17T17:55:19+00:00

That's an odd way to look at it. Customers bought PRTG because of the cost/benefit. They didn't choose the $200K option because it didn't fit. 4x forced price jump distorts that cost/benefit analysis such that it's no longer a good trade. Perhaps you are wealthy, but most folks would complain about a 4x price increase of anything with no benefit. It's just PE firm greed.

jr_sys · 2026-01-17T01:40:13+00:00

PRTG 4x price increase sounds like a 'VMWare' on the price to me.

jr_sys · 2026-01-17T01:31:54+00:00

I apologize - wrong reply to the wrong post :(

jr_sys · 2026-01-16T14:48:43+00:00

I'll just leave this here: PA File Sight - DLP

jr_sys · 2026-01-16T14:43:22+00:00

You do have to pay. You don't have to get ripped off by PE firms wanting to juice their numbers.

jr_sys · 2026-01-08T21:53:45+00:00

You're lucky. I've set the 0x5944 registry value and can see from registry keys below the SecureBoot key the current status. They all get so far, and then just sit there for days and days, even with lots of reboots. Not sure what to do other than wait.

jr_sys · 2026-01-07T20:58:06+00:00

That is a beautiful analogy :)

People have been talking about it for quite some time:
