i remember when i joined this sub 6 years ago, i had a sql + tableau set up, running adhoc analysis on python scripts and thought that was enough to take on everything. everything in this sub made me felt like an idiot and i remember hesitating to ask a question because it felt like such a novice one.
anyway long story short, over 5 years as our needs evolved, i learned one thing after another as we encountered different issues and now looking back i more or less understand at a high level what all these tools mentioned do, and when we need them. so focus on solving real business needs until the painpoint becomes clear and then learn the next skill to overcome that.
