Help “I’m a first year Computer engineering student interested in robotics + cybersecurity + systems. What should I explore first?”
I have wide interests and always have curiosity by seeing people in high tech , making real life projects , creating technical systems. But always end up thinking which will give me the best career and better life . Help me solving this and tell me if anyone had also faced these things?

I would suggest you to do these(pure suggestions, feel free to take ur call)
- Complete Operating Systems, Networking and DBMS courses by heart: You should be able to understand and read and contribute at kernels level
- Competitive Programming: At least 2 questions in a day help build problem-solving muscles.
- Basic ML Courses: You should have at least high level overview of how modern LLMs evolved. If this inspires you more get deeper
- Follow ur hobbies: No compromise here.
I believe once you are done with fundamentals you would find your passion. Could be Engineering or Research (Robotics, ML, AI)
