I’m glad I found your channel. I am a recently separated army veteran. I am currently working as a Cloud Engineer and sometimes feel imposter syndrome as I feel as if I don’t belong here. It’s awesome to see someone express their honest emotions and keep it real. I say that because I just started my journey into my Linux Essentials cert through my school WGU. I feel overwhelmed because most of the people I work with have more experience with Linux than I do and I am eager to learn and grow in the Linux environment.
Respects to you! I'd love to be in such a role as well. 21 years diverse IT experience and four AWS certs and some security ones, still searching for that elusive cloud position.
You should learn GNU/Linux because freedom is the way forward. Not only because it's technologically superior or what have you, but you have an obligation to be free! You should use as many free programs as you possibly can.
I am 25yrs into my I.T career and we go through trends. Follow the current trend or become unemployed eventually. IBM purchase of REDHAT sealed the fate of everyone's skills requirements. Linux is becoming the defacto standard additional skill requirement.
@Andrew Rix Former Novell CNE- Myself - I see the current trend to beef up on your LINUX skill-set and get the certification. Next, the average agency or Fortune 500 is following the DoD 8750 whereas you must be Security+ certified regardless of your skills if you desire to make any real money. Next, get some cloud skills under your belt you don't have to be a DevOps Guru however you better learn at less one cloud skill-set.
I have been doing the same on my Linux skills. I have actually found that learning and playing with Kubernetes is really helping with this as well. Two birds one stone although things like bash and other fundamentals are not needed there.
@@adomovic323 hey Michael, first and foremost I make sure I spend time in Linux everyday (including the weekend) I come from a majority of windows background with some MacOS but having an Ubuntu machine accessible is always handy, secondly because I am working and learning heavily with Kubernetes I can do a lot of my learning on the Linux box. Course wise I am following some courses on udemy, they are very good and have some practice sessions and tests that are useful.
the site "Explain shell" (explainshell.com) is never far away from my fingers. If you ever see a command that looks like gibberish you can paste it in and get it systematically explained. It's beautiful.
Hi GPS. I've been watching your videos for guidance and motivation for a couple of weeks now. Thanks for the effort! At the moment (and following your advice) I'm learning with the Linux Basics for Hackers and The Command Line. It goes smoothly most of the time until I run into errors not mentioned in the book and I have to stop to troubleshoot. This time, unlike previous times, I'm not giving up so easily.
Let's go!!! I've heard great things about Manjaro, just went with Pop os because they have a download that comes with nvidia drivers support already :)
This was an amazing video I've been a Windows admin muy entire career. I have two goals this year AZ104 and to learn Linux the open source world is amazing.
Hey, you will definitely know this, but I'll say this anyway, checkout the man command, its just a offline manual of any command, very helpful while working with any tool
So you did not need to know the Linux CLI to be a cloud engineer? That surprised me. I need to look more in depth what the core skills of a cloud engineer is and what a cloud engineer does from day to day.
Cloud engineer is a very generic title, it comes down to each individual company on how to implement it. I did know how to a bash shell, just not as well as I know now. The GUI in cloud platforms abstracts a lot of that.
Ah I see. How about PowerShell scripting? Any need for that? I work on an ERP application called PeopleSoft that is owned by Oracle. I used Kornshell scripting a lot at my previous job to execute different PeopleSoft programs. We had PeopleSoft running on an AIX box. Then I think the switched the box to RHEL. Occasionally I would use Unix/Linux commands like sort, uniq, if/else statements, etc. to manipulate the output files.
I’m on the programming side of PeopleSoft rather than the infrastructure side. There are PeopleSoft administrators that install and stand up the application for the rest of us to use. I’m really interested in working/understanding that side of the house.
Hey GPS. You talk a lot about certifications in your video. Two years developing professionally and I really don't know the possible certifications I can gun for. I really want to know how you know these things and if what certifications I can gun for. Edit: Congrats on your new job btw 🚀🚀
RedHat will only benefit if you're going to be in a predominately RedHat environment or aspire to be in one knee deep. Other than that as you said with Linux+ or even LFCS the similarities are essentially the same. So far the only differences is that for RedHat they have vdo, stratis file systems to work with. Then learn Podman and you will have RedHat skills along with what you've gained with Linux+ and LFCS without having to fork out another 400.00 dollars to take RHCSA again or go on to RHCE. Again, doesn't make sense unless you are fully in a RedHat environment or aspire to be in one.

I am now studying Linux glad I found your channel
I’m currently learning Linux in hopes of getting a job.
Thanks for your insight
Great video! I need a variety of resources when studying as well!
came to see your journey in Linux so far and left learning a bit about the sed commend WIN WIN! :)
in love with your channel
Thank you :)
I too am using Pop! OS as my daily and love it.
I love it!

As long as you're willing to put in the work, you belong here! Keep up the good work and welcome to tech :)

I feel like if you got the job on your own, there's no way you should feel imposter syndrome, you're meant to be there, congrats!!
learning so much, thanks GPS!
Shout out to you. You just encouraged me to get my Linux+. Preciate that.
Let's go! You're gonna learn a lot :D

I like your username.

@Andrew Rix Cisco R&S Engineer- Flipping back to my Novell days -However the choice is Linux and Linux related skills with AWS.

Nice, can you give us some pointers as to what you learn with

Good way to go. Never get comfortable, pursue new goals and challenges, keep it going! I will be going for Linux soon as well!
You got this! and thank you for watching.

Nice explanations, thanks
Just ordered an nvme to install PopOs or Manjaro on!
Let's go!!! I've heard great things about Manjaro, just went with Pop os because they have a download that comes with nvidia drivers support already :)
Absolutely Great
Thank you. Can’t wait to see you mess around with awk.
The awkward command
This was an amazing video I've been a Windows admin muy entire career. I have two goals this year AZ104 and to learn Linux the open source world is amazing.
FOSS is also FTPHYW (free to pronounce however you want)
Would you tell a newbie to learn Linux first or golang/Python
either
@@MadeByGPS thank you. Cause I’m struggling to stay consistent
That's great, Linux is the best
and yes, of course, live streams are on top
More coming soon :D
i am encouraged. So i tried to install Arch then fail now i got 1 laptop with nothing to boot and 1 broken heart
Truth has been spoken, Windows sux, and Mac OS is a joke, marvellous decision.
By Power of the Command-line, I sure hope you mean PowerShell! :)
LOL now that's a fantastic video for you to make, I get lots of how to learn powershell questions, but I am no expert :(
Looks like I've found an amazing yt channel.
Congrats! any good practice exam links for linux essentials?
Are you trying for Linux+ exam?
No. I mentioned in the video which exam I’m going for.

Please Gwen what do I have to do pass my AZ 104 exam , how do I get my self prepared for the exams? I need your help please advise me

As a cloud engineer/ architect do you use ubuntu or red hat?
Are you asking about myself specifically or in general?
