Sent Becker a question about a practice problem… And they told me not to read too deeply in the words of the question…

For context, will you post your query for Becker?

like

The becker explanation was “The correct answer is "a) Cold site" and the explanation is "the arrangement that the controller would be looking for would be a cold site. The reason is the use of an alternate location (either hot site or a cold site) and then the delivery of duplicate computer hardware (that makes it a cold site). “

and I said:

I put hot site because of the past tense of "arranged" in the question. If controller arranged the delivery of duplicate computer hardware to this alternate location, then the hardware would be there or in the process of being there to generate a hot site. Therefore, the plan is a hot site because the plan has arranged hardware to be at the site. If the question stated a plan for delivery then it would have been a cold site. But the fact that the delivery was arranged, past tense, then the plan should be considered a hot site because the delivery of hardware is already in the process before the event of a disaster. I understand the difference between hot and cold sites. I just believe based on the context of the question, that the alternate location has hardware because the controller arranged delivery. “

I agree with Becker. You read wayyy to much into it.

I've never worked on anything for TikTok and hope I never have to. TikTok is from hell. I was on it one time for about 10 minutes and could feel myself becoming mentally unwell in just those 10 minutes. The human brain is not designed to deal with the sheer amount of sensory overload that app gives you. I'm pretty sure TikTok is one of the main reasons we are constantly hearing about how much Gen Z struggles with mental health.

New York folks:
Are you aware of the CPA exam credit extension to 2021 for NY CPA candidates impacted by COVID19? It’s on a person-by-person basis and you need to request the extension. Has anyone tried doing this yet? Can anyone shine more light on this? The extension would really help me, but I’m not sure what more to tell them in my email than the fact that I couldn’t sit for the exams this Spring/Summer due to test centers closing in NYC.
