In the data space: you can start with basic SQL and get a BI job, then learn python to progress into data engineering or data science, from there you can also learn cloud architecture and DevOps.

That's what I did at least.

Cisco Network Academy has a great Python Essentials course. It also prepares you for two Python certification exams (the PCEP and PCAP). The first part of the training goes over computer science basics which is useful for any programming language that you might want to learn 10/10 would recommend!

PMO lol.

What do you want to do? I’d say just learning cloud architecture at a conceptual level will benefit you to open doors. Understand how to look at a logical/physical diagram and understand what component goes where. I.E. what are the components needed to build a “cloud foundation”, what services make up networking, compute, data services etc.

From there if you find you really like the automation aspect of things go look into CI/CD.

I took coding classes in college and never found the task of learning to code hard because I genuinely enjoyed it :)

Hi all! What are the differences between senior/staff SWE and software architects? Are architects still a thing? I'm causally searching for a new position (my job had a 50% layoff last month and the survivability of the company is sketchy) and I've noticed senior and staff SWE roles sound like they have a lot of architectural designing and leadership responsibilities while not focusing on coding as much. Is this normal? I love mentoring, but I also don't wanna be in meetings all day. 😕

I thought my dog today ate her training clicker. I dropped it on the ground and she had it in her mouth and then went to go eat her food and before I could grab it, it was gone. I full on panicked, tried to find it and no dice so I took her to the vet. Some puking and an x-ray later, and they didn’t find anything. I searched at home again but couldn’t find it and this whole thing makes me super nervous. Has anyone else have similar experiences that turned out okay? Need reassurance rn.
