You can have a small rpi or similar on your WiFi in a hidden location on a UPS, so the main computer can’t boot without the tang server accessible.

I’m always confused by people who don’t seem to understand that MacBooks and iPhones run different OSs. Why would they run the same OS?

You can install pretty much anything on a MacBook via the open-source package manager brew. I’ve been exclusively using Linux at home for almost 20 years, but on my work computer, which is a MacBook, I really don’t find much is missing. I use the same oh-my-zsh profile on both, brew install the real version of most utilities, and I move on with my life and get work done.

Apple doesn’t lock down the bootloader at all, so it’s trivial to install Asahi Linux now if you want to. I did this on my home computer because I like the screen, battery life, and keyboard layout.

Right! Bilbo spent all these years telling the Shire about how scary the dragon was, but for his birthday he got Gandalf to simulate the dragon for everyone.

To actually answer your question, you need some kind of job scheduling service that manages the whole operation. Whether that’s SSM or Ansible or something else. With Ansible, you can set a parallel parameter that will say that you only update 3 or so at a time until they are all done. If one of those upgrades fails, then it will abort the process. There’s a parameter to make it die if any host fails, but I don’t recall it right now.

I was trying to think of a way to trick him into planting bamboo in his yard, but those are good.

What tech field though? Software? Cloud? AI/ML? Security?

In all those scenarios though, the cert in question would be listed as something else. It’s not that I’m against Coursera or think it’s a bad platform.

There are a lot of certs out there and most of them are worthless, and a lot of them happen to be on Coursera, I guess. I’ve talked to people who had AWS certs and couldn’t explain the difference between S3 and EBS. Certs just don’t mean much.

Once you get your first job, the certs of all kinds just become resume fluff, but since you are pursuing your first job, they might be useful.

As an interviewer, I think that certs are only useful if you take the test with a different company than you studied with. So I don’t think I’d care if you have a coursera cert, because I’d assume it just meant you finished the course that you paid for.

What certs are you thinking about doing, and more importantly, what are you looking to get out of them? I know “a job”, but what kind of job are you looking for?
