Where do I start as someone who desire to become skilled in UNIX and C?
Hi, for some time now I have been away. Things got so though I had to get a job. Whilst on the job i never felt free to do the thing i truly desired. Its like two masters trying to get my attention. One had to go for the other. To sum up i quit my job and i felt that was the best decision i ever took because now i can focus on programming and giving back to the community. I could not do both at the same time.
My plea is for some words of advice from those who have being in my shoe. what did you do and how did you get to your current level of competence in the craft of system administration and programming.
Also i will love to have a coding pall that is of same skills level that we both could grow and share our experience. I am a pure beginner. I have being on and off on this site for a while.
If this post is not for this section please admin kindly help put it in the write category. Thank you.
