I've wanted to learn Linux and network security for some time now and decided that this was the year to do it. It's gone great!
I am now using Ubuntu as my primary OS and plan on checking out other distros for fun in the future. I also learned a lot about securing my own home network from HackTheBox and watching YT videos from Network Chuck.
What were your goals for this year?
@brandon_thimmesch_profile Sounds good that you have almost done with the progress and IoT security is very important as well. I wanted to pick up data science for finance this year, but I have made very little progress.
@ajeyasriganesh I think it's always fine to shift priorities during the year though too, so some progress is better than none =)
Data science sounds like a fun learning goal, all of the tech surrounding the financial industry is pretty neat to learn about and super useful.
@brandon_thimmesch_profile Interesting you had Linux as a learning topic. It was my learning challenge last summer - I switched mine and my immediate family's computers over to Linux - One of the best things I ever did. Now all I need to do is make my phone opensource as well by moving to Lineage OS 😏
The power of community building - it's amazing how you come to trust people and build relationships online.
That's something I've constantly tried to get better at; still trying to get out of my comfort zone and slowly learning how to keep the conversations going strong.
