    What’re your thoughts? Do you find more value in free or paid resources?

    Great video! I appreciate its unapologetic commitment to truth.
    On a side note this truth-seeking mindset applies perfectly to cybersecurity as welll. If someone isn't open to continually learning alongside their certifications, they're missing the mark.
    To me, certifications signal a basic grasp of a topic. They say, "I understand X, Y, Z, and here's proof." It's not about knowing everything but having a starting point.
    The main focus of learning should always be the wealth of free resources online, books, and other materials. Spending lots of money solely on certifications shouldn't be the main way we learn.
    Nowadays, you can find practically everything online for free. Even this video provides valuable information at no cost. It's all about being genuinely committed to learning and not just relying on courses or certifications (not that they're bad, but many people approach them incorrectly, often by pursuing loads of them without focusing on genuine learning.)
    Certifications/course diploma (or whatever) are essentially official documents confirming a level of achievement or status. If that makes sense. Courses/Certs shouldn't be relied upon as the sole method for learning since many of them have flaws and limitations.

    Yes and No. While there is a lot of free information out there, a lot of it is inaccurate. So inaccurate that people on reedit even made a list of bad websites to learn CPP. A course at school or outside of school is more structured than learning random stuff from random websites. My point is be careful where you are getting your free information from.

      I don’t think it being paid or unpaid has anything to do with it being accurate. Be careful where you get ANY information from.

      @@AndrewRoeThat's true that's what I mean be careful where you get any information from. Not saying paid are legit or not. There are many scammers out there.
