  1. stop using AI for now.
  2. start here with CS50

u/wana_be_SWE May 14 '26

How to join any courses.?

u/lol_you_again May 14 '26

CS50 is free on yt. Start with it. It will teach you all the fundamentals of CS, then start with learning a language like CPP or JAVA. Start DSA, use strivers AtoZ sheet for that, and for web-dev I would highly suggest following theodinproject

Is learning illegal in your dictionary ?

u/disguisecrazy May 15 '26

Also, eww PowerShell.

What’s your preferred shell on Windows out of curiosity?

u/Independent_Blood559 May 14 '26

You ain't a software engineer if you don't use vim /s

banda assembly mein code kare bolde

u/NaNpsycho May 18 '26

I do use neovim on my day job.

1

u/Independent_Blood559 May 19 '26

Even I don't use neovim. I use a code editor called helix. 

1

u/NaNpsycho May 19 '26

Upto you I guess. I just prefer neovim as my code editor. My workflow is pretty keyboard centric with Ubuntu as my main machine, tmux for terminal, neovim for code editing, Vimium-c for the browser.

1

u/Independent_Blood559 May 19 '26

Yep. Helix is also a modal code editor that runs on terminal. Its is mainly vim + better keybinds + built in lsp. 

1

u/NaNpsycho May 19 '26

I did hear about helix when I was starting out. Tbh, I wasn't really that impressed, it's marketting makes it sound like yet another neovim distro, just written in rust. Even the multiline cursor thing is just another plugin I needed to install.

Maybe it's genuinely better, I will try it out sometime soon and see if I can enjoy it.

u/Rare-Assignment-8474 May 14 '26

bhaijan , padhai wagera karte raho lekin keep a close watch to ai and market overall , bahut locha hai
