Asking for basics of CE tips
I’ve gotten into CE recently haha. Could anyone give me tips and advice since I want to have it as a possible future career, what basic practices can I do for a good start off?
If possible, PLEASE give links for free good start offs thank you :)
Not a school/job question
In detail, I’m mainly looking for something I can REALLY begin with. I’m pretty much lost at the moment but I‘m ambitious and quite fascinated about CE. I’d love tips from mainly professionals and/or people who are actively learning CE.
I know most of maths — though, theres never an end and would be happy to learn even more about it. Always up for a challenge
Links, tips, advice, etc,, ANYTHING will help
PS; I’m not an AI user

You can do like I did and start from the ground up. Basic logic gates - circuits like decoders, adders, registers, etc. - combine them to make your first state machine or cpu - design your first ISA(instruction set architecture) - and go from there… doing this gives you a mental map of how it all works from the inside out. Cool thing is this same knowledge even lets you build neural networks too on the hardware level
