    Just a reminder that in Azure, if you don't want to be charged for compute for a VM, you need to not just shutdown Windows. You also need to deallocate the VM. If the VM's status is just "stopped" then you need to click the stop button again in the portal and it will be deallocated. Otherwise compute charges still apply. Storage charges are another issue entirely, and will continue to rack up even with the VM deallocated, as was mentioned in a comment below. This can be a very small charge of course, but if you don't have a free monthly allocation of funds, you can't just leave stuff sitting there once your initial funds run out.

    @MG.50 11 місяців тому +107

    A walk down memory lane.
    I was a customer support engineer at Microsoft (direct employee before they brought in contractors and then "outsourced" support to separate companies). Back then, your first month was training on 1) computer architecture, 2) Windows architecture, 3) customer blind interaction, and other bits and pieces. (An example of "blind" interaction was walking another CSE through solving a problem while facing away from them AND as they intentionally made every possible mistake. This really was like interacting with Windows users on the phone.)
    My initial support area was Windows 3.1. Then I moved to the "hardware queue", supporting hardware interfacing issues under all versions of MS products, including from an old Z80 interface in an Apple II sold by Microsoft in the Computer Stone Age running the CP/M operating system (I was the only one there that was old enough to have used CP/M, which was a popular OS before there was a Microsoft) to Windows 3.1, WinNT3.5, WIN 2000, Win 95 (code named Chicago prior to release... which really sucked), and on into the more "recent" flavors of Windoze.
    Well, until 1996, when I quit. I was always a hardware type, and MS changed internally, becoming less a comfortable environment, so I went back to electronics design. Windows is certainly ubiquitous in industry and academia, so if you learn to support it, you will probably have pretty good job security.
    At one point my wife took a CCNA (Certified Cisco Network Associate) which was TOUGH just due to all the details one was expected to know. Also good job security if you want to be a network administrator.

      CP/M was awesome, my older cousin had one and we played with it a lot when I was around 7-8 maybe. Used to play Roland in time, Roland in the caves, and so on I think. Good times, moved on to the Commodore Amiga which was really fun, and then later the PC. Used to look down on Windows, as the Amiga Workbench was so much better at multitasking, and even OS/2 was better. Eventually Windows got better, and now my main source of income as a consultant ...

      I guess you never heard of Amiga, back when 3.11 was around the Amiga could be running several programs at once, and all you had to do was click in the upper right hand corner to change what program was running. I remember taking on the new 386 computer, the idea was to run a list of about 10 programs and see who finished first, well I was done in 15 minutes, and 2 hours and 19 minutes later Windows 3.11 was done using the fastest computer of that era.

    Here's how I view things. As a developer, we are mostly hired to provide solutions to existing problems. When 75% of the population is using windows, you just can't dev an app for exemple, without taking in consideration these 75%. All things that are meant to be highly public, should be tested on windows, and then on other OS. (And don't get me wrong, I'm a linux lover !)

      Just get a few basic certs on windows servers (server admin is important, sql is very specialized but good money maker if you’re into DBs), Linux lpic 1&2 is also good to have - this will be a great advantage to get in the door. In your later career - let’s say 5 years in - certs won’t matter much at this point as you’ve got your ‘street creds’ already. Don’t bother with annual/bi-yearly recertification as that’s just a business model. Unless you go into hip new places, most older companies run 5-10 years behind current tech (FTP, batch files and tons of scripts and hacks are definitely still a thing to keep things going forever :) ) anyway, and that’s if you’re lucky.

    Chuck,
    I have a big question, but first I want to say this....
    I am a brand new beginner to all things IT. I am trying to learn Python first and it occurred to me that I need an environment to apply the things I read to something physical that I can try. So because you, Networkchuck, has become my IT guru via UA-cam, I downloaded VS Code. It is a whole new beast. Well having done that I am seeing some confusing things that require clarity. Any time I get an error or "problem" as it is referred to in vs code, I struggle to understand not only the specific problem but also what the fix would be and where to find that information. So I've concluded that I may be missing some extensions or something of the sort and every video I have found seems to focus on older versions of the program and Python. Please, please please help a newbie like me( because I'm the only one out here) and break down what I need to do to have all the tools I need to learn something I want to learn so that I can become an awesome coffee drinking IT master such as yourself. Please help.
    With the deepest gratitude and appreciation, thank you
    Michael ( aka: redthorn)

    In case you are looking for ideas for future videos I would like to point out how cool the local running GPT4ALL project is and it allows you to have your own AI models running on your own machine and it just uses your CPU and it's useable. But the part I would really like to see explained is to take it a step further and get the gpt4all-ui project to work in docker because the directions are really something to be desired. This is supposed to allow you to host the AI models on your own server as far as I understand. So you really never have to use chatgpt ever again.

      I am running GPT4All on my personal server for a Discord bot, and even with the absolute best model, it is terrible when it comes to looking for more specific information. Not to mention, it needs a lot of CPU power and fast SSD to run, which people usually don't have on a server if you just use it for AD and SMB.

      @@Piipperi800 @Piipperi800 You realize that these chat models only have a limited amount of data to work with correct? And also the way that you talk to it and phrase your questions plays a big part in how it responds to you. Like I work with people that can't write in complete sentences or spell correctly and that makes a huge difference. When you say a fast SSD I'm not sure what you mean they're all fast. Like a Gen 3 NVMe drive vs a SATA SSD I'm guessing would make very little difference whatsoever since it makes very little difference when loading games up. The benchmark numbers might be astounding but the real world performance is basically the same. Now if you ran it from a mechanical hard drive for sure it's going to be slower than dirt. Not to mention they probably have about 12 different models now and they're all not created equal. Some of them are double the size of the others as far as data that they can use goes. Some of the models aren't even trained for specific tasks which could make a difference. But I still would like to try it and I have no idea how to get it to run on docker. Runs on my Linux desktop just fine but I would really like it on my server so I can use it on my phone when I'm at work.

    Great video Chuck - I hope it inspires people to think beyond the utterly boring linux/windows discussion. In the end windows is a tool like Linux is; both have strengths, weaknesses, (dis-)advantages and their usecases in the professional field.
    The windows desktop is what the world uses to work on (sorry Apple and Linux fans, let’s be realistic here) so managing and administration of workplaces is a huge job market; windows server and Linux are both very valuable skills in the pro world but windows is most likely everyone’s first exposure as most IT starts in support and you don’t really touch servers in support; maybe also do a video to introduce the real power of group policies and AD and how to utilize that power responsibly as you’ve just touched the tip the iceberg? Your corporate AD in general is not something to click around in, there’s hopefully an entire design behind it…there’s really a ton of cool technologies hiding in windows servers which are relatively unknown so maybe a nice failover cluster or IIS video?

    The thing is that Windows is not as fun compared to *nix. I know a number of people that got into *nix in 90s because they had a 386 or even 286 that by then was ancient and just went to town on Minix, BSD or Linux. Windows just doesn't let you run it on anything the same way.

      On *nix, everything is very familiar even when switching between MacOS, Linux and BSD. But then there's Windows that just does thing differently. All lot of things just feel like a worse experience on Windows to me. Programming on Linux feels more natural. Like a lot of commandline tools work just like any other program in Linux, but feel out of place in the Windows command prompt.

    Issue with microsoft and their products. They are good undoubtedly, but they have one or two ways in which you are supposed to do things. Those ways aren't always very functional. For instance, windows 11 clearly tries to push the gui elements of windows, and revamps a lot of the old control panel menues, to the point that some (display) are literally impossible to open the old version of. Suspect microsoft is intending on removing the old control panel menues slowly. No matter how much you try to hack the windows you're sitting on, some things will not work because microsoft has their vision. There's a big upside to having a very large userbase though. When there's a problem, it's easy to find solutions, or find ways to hack around issues using scripting or small programs accessing api's, and honestly probably the most fun I have at my job. Using linux mint as a personal computer, and I wont allow any microsoft or apple product in my home - linux's vision of computing is one I very much share, and it embodies what is fun about computers.
