I want to delve more into Cybersecurity/programming. Going to pick up some books this weekend.
Here's my list:
The Linux Command Line, 2nd Edition by William Shotts
Linux Basics for Hackers by OccupyTheWeb
Violent Python: A Cookbook for Hackers by TJ O'Connor
Black Hat Python : Python Programming By Justin Seitz
The Art of Deception: Controlling the Human Element of Security By Kevin D. Mitnick
Ghost in the Wires By Kevin Mitnick
What do you guys think? Would these be good books for a beginner or any must read books that might be missing from my list?

Cant have it any other way
Some people believe in a "study mode" or grinding til they hit a specific goal and then fall off
not me
Continuous learning at all times
Some weeks are sprints and some weeks are marathons, but I always stay on my grind regardless of the tempo

this book is pretty good i read as well
"U.S. banks and tech firms have no need of H1B Visa talent"
"U.S. banks and tech firms have no need of H1B Visa talent"
There's absolutely no reason why banks and tech firms should complain about the lack of H1B visa talent, Salzman tells us. "Annual hiring demand for top talent positions is probably, say, 5,000 new hires a year. Make it 10,000 if you like," says Salzman. He points out that the U.S. produces 1.9m bachelors graduates a year, plus hundreds of thousands of Masters graduates, plus PhDs: "It seems implausible they can't find that number among the 1.9m."

These companies will never learn. And still won't increase cybersecurity headcount.

I'm honestly getting fed up with Red Hat
2nd time scheduling a remote exam and it's been absolute bullshyt.
Despite being wired directly on a fiber optic connection and able to surf the net at warp speeds....When I access their remote exam environment...latency up the ass. I mean it takes 5 secs for 1 keystroke to go through. It probably doesnt help that they're outsourced to India which is where the remote exams are hosted from. Then the proctor bytched about my webcam quality when its 1080p with 60 FPS with autofocus. Bullshyt. That's on them. But since it's red hat , it couldnt possibly be on them, right?
If possible I'll hold off til I can sit for a classroom exam in-person in the future, but honestly I'm bout to just go with another linux vendor for the mean time, Red Hat has this sexy veneer of being such a great company, but in reality, they're some old bullshyt.
Linux itself is amazing..Red Hat is fukking Garbage with immaculate branding I'll give 'em that much.
Might go with LFCS or LPIC as an alternative at this point. I just want a linux cert to let mfers know I'm solid with linux at the minimum.
Anyone got any experieince taking either one?

Last exam I took at a testing center before COVID hit people taking Microsoft Azure exams had it worse. The exam would lock up in the middle of their tests preventing them from finishing. They would have no choice but to reschedule their exams. One guy I overheard was on his 2nd to last question when the exam site crashed.
We used to do that shyt whenever we took long trips up north for football games when I was in High School.
Gone like brick and mortar video rental stores.

So these companies answers to all of this is to transfer responsibility?

Anyone have the BOSON simulation exam for CCNA and wants to hook me up at a discount, shoot me a PM. It's 100 bucks but I don't have that much.
Basically just a 3 hour lovefest for Amazon being a great place to work. Some good tips on resumes and interviews, but pretty much you can find that anywhere online.So whats the deal with this amazon career day
Wonder if them 2 AWS certs i picked up at beginning of the year are finally gonna matter
Wish they focuses more on the actual jobs they are hiring for, or be like an actual career fair and help you out in that regard.
