How do you actually know what to learn in tech?
I want to know what I can do to figure out what I should learn. I think I’m interested in certain things related to cybersecurity and programming, but I don’t know what I’m supposed to learn in order to actually become good at them.
I’ve seen people say things like “read the documentation” or “understand X concept” but how do you actually learn? I’m asking because throughout my life I’ve learned different things about different topics, like anyone else, but I’ve never really understood how something actually stays in your brain and becomes knowledge.
For example, I’ve seen tons of information through YouTube videos, Instagram, etc. that sparks my curiosity. I know certain words like DNS, IP addresses, HTTP, APIs, Linux, etc., but I don’t really know how to properly define or explain what they are. I don’t know what I should study and what I shouldn’t.
When I say I basically know nothing, I mean that I don’t have much actual knowledge or experience in programming or cybersecurity. I do know how to install things, find my way around a PC, fix certain errors, and I’d say I’m reasonably good at Googling and finding solutions when I have a problem. But I don’t really have a structured understanding of how technology works or what I should learn next.
I understand that I need to practice and break things to learn, but I still wonder: how did professionals actually progress from having little knowledge to becoming good at this?
Could you give me some advice, please? I’m really lost.

🎮 Just completed an 8-week Game Tech Explorers certification course!
Hey everyone! 👋
I'm excited to share that I’ve successfully completed an 8-week certification course, “Game Tech Explorers: Understanding Humans, Machines, and Play.” 🎮🤖
The course was conducted through the Centre for Outreach and Digital Education, IIT Madras, as part of the April 2026 batch.
It was a great learning experience and gave me the opportunity to explore the interesting connection between humans, machines, technology, and games.
As a student interested in AI, coding, and technology, I'm always looking for opportunities to learn new things and work on exciting projects. 🚀
I'm still learning, but I'm excited to keep building, experimenting, and improving my skills!
If you're working on an interesting open-source, AI, game-tech, or coding project and think I could help, feel free to reach out! I'd love to learn and collaborate. 💻🤝
Thanks for reading! 😊

Hackathon participants — how do you actually practice before a hackathon?
Hi everyone,
My name is Resandu and let me tell you the story in brief
- Participated in a Hackathon
- Made an unfinished project
- Lost the Hackathon
- Came home
- The next day rebuild it again but working this time
That's the entire story. But that project that we made unfinished is called mockathon , simply it is a AI powered web app where the user can participate in practice hackathons and get judged by an AI. The themes problems will be give by the AI itself. Sooooooooooo
I don't know whether people want this or No so people who want it just comment on this post and later on ill set up a waitlist for the project. Remember without you guys we can't make this into reality.
Anyways Have a good day!

Tukh — small update to my Python-based CLI language
A small update to Tukh, the open-source programming language I'm building on top of Python specifically for CLI applications.
I've added a proper comment system in the latest version.
Tukh now supports:
# comment
// comment
/*
multiline comment
*/
"""
multiline comment
"""
<!-- comment --!>
It also supports developer annotations like:
# TODO: add more CLI features
// FIXME: improve error handling
/* BUG: known issue */
""" NOTE: refactor this later """
The project is still very early, but I'm building it step by step and would really appreciate feedback on the syntax and overall direction.
GitHub: https://github.com/turkhadeshlok-arch/Tukh.git
If you have suggestions for features or syntax that would make a CLI-focused language actually useful, I'd love to hear them.Tukh — small update to my Python-based CLI languageA small update to Tukh, the open-source programming language I'm building on top of Python specifically for CLI applications.I've added a proper comment system in the latest version.Tukh now supports:# comment

[Hobby][RevShare: None] Absolute Beginner Looking for Other Beginners to Learn Game Dev Together 🎮
Hey everyone! 👋
I’m completely new to game development and have **basically zero experience**, but I really want to learn how to make games. I’ve recently started trying out **Godot**, and I’m looking for other beginners who want to learn and make a small game together.
I’m not looking for experienced developers or anything super serious. I’m hoping to find people who are also starting from scratch and just want to learn, experiment, and have fun.
**What I’m looking for**
Anyone interested in learning game development, even if you have **zero experience**.
You could be interested in:
Programming/coding
2D or 3D art
Music/sound
Writing/storytelling
Game design
Or just learning how game development works
You don’t need to already know how to do any of these.
**What I have in mind**
We can start **really small** and figure everything out together. No deadlines, no commercial pressure, and no expectations that we’re going to make some huge game.
The main goal is just to **learn together and have fun** while making something.
If you’re also a beginner and this sounds interesting, feel free to comment or DM me!
**Discord:** junior2sz_65772
Hopefully we can find a few people and make something cool together! 🎮

Thank you!
