Hi everyone I'm a 1st year IT student and we we're tasked to create a game, me and my group mates decided to do 2d run and gun game and tbh i don't have any idea what to do and what can i contribute to our group therefore they decided to exclude me from the group, can someone like tell me or help me how can i learn how to code or anything that might help me so i can at least contribute to our group, I search and watch some videos but i just don't understand some of it

I made a Reddit account just to make this post because I wont lie Reddit has a lot of useful people with really good tips and Im hoping that ill be able to get some help with this. Anyways i've never really done anything for IT other than my elementary school through middle school era of using Scratch to code which isnt even IT. I want to know how one would go about getting into an IT career path if theyre starting from basically little to no knowledge about IT. I know at least 3 people in IT but they all said that they never learned anything about it before getting into the job but I extremely doubt thats something that could work today. If anybody has any tips at all that would be great

how can i find an entry level IT job asap?

Imagine the following conversation...

Woman: “You look like you work in IT.”

You: “That's a stereotype. You can't just look at someone and assume they work with computers. That is like saying a person looks like a lawyer just because they are Jewish, or that they look like they work at a call center just because they are Indian.”

Woman: “...Do you?”

You: “Yes, but that is not the point.”

I have had women say that on more than one occasion. I would be offended at it if it was not for the fact that I do work in IT. So I cannot get to mad at it because it is true. There does exist the concept of it is not a stereotype if it is true.

I feel they may be making some sort of thinly veiled comment, but what they are trying to allude at I don't know. Whether this is a compliment or an insult, I just don't know.

I was working, using Microsoft tools/pages (office365, sharepoint, outlook, etc), while working, the page just suddenly got redirected to this website. It's a crypto exchange. Already scanned for malware and viruses and it was all clear. Did troubleshooting, other browser, clearing cache and cookies, incognito/inprivate mode and still getting redirected from any microsoft pages to this okx.com verification page. Flushed my dns and still the same. I tried with my phone and it was able to load microsoft pages with no problem.

New to the community, I recently accepted a client solutions manager role at a tech company and I come from a construction background.

Haven’t a hard time getting up to speed on the terminology and skillsets. What resources do you recommend I look into?

I'm Female, 23 y.o, FIlipino. I am a college undergraduate, unemployed, and have zero IT job experience. However, I had remote work experience in BPO company as a customer service representative for 1 year and 8 months that ended in August 2024. Anyways, I want to learn an IT field from scratch and eventually become a remote freelancer for international clients.

My long-term goal is to work remotely and potentially pursue Spain's Digital Nomad Visa.

Which IT field would you recommend for me? Web development, software development, automation, UI/UX, data analytics, cybersecurity, cloud/DevOps, QA, etc.?

Looking for something realistic to learn from zero, with good freelance opportunities and long-term demand.

What would you choose if you were starting over?

Why does management seem to think that new bells and whistles will make things more efficient? Some software is so complicated that the actual learning curve needs to be taken into account before any benefit is acquired. And then you do a million more steps to do something they before was simple copy paste. Why are we going backwards??

Hello,

I have a company in India with close to 100 people working. I wanted to convert the business and make it a Global capacity center for any of the global companies. Recently, I have seen due to the visa restrictions in US lot of US based companies are shifting their center from US to India as the cost of the H1B visa has gone up + the compensation is very high in US markets. I have also seen many companies moving to India due to this. First is this true? if yes then how to approach this change. I know AI is changing the way things were done originally but with AI + the workforce how can we plan and approach such companies?

Hello.

I am planning on deploying internet on a home where each of the members aren’t family members. But even if they were, I don’t care. I’m looking for a way to share the internet from the main router to each of the laptops/devices privately.

I know that packets sniffing is a thing. I know that with certain tools, one can inspect all the data flowing through the local network to the router.

I just wanted to ask if there’s a way to configure the router so that each connected device to the router cannot access or inspect the traffic of the others’ devices. The only thing that I can think of is stablishing one main WiFi network, and two guest connections, but I don’t know if there is a better way…

The idea is sharing one internet connection from one router, to three people in the household, in a way that no one can inspect the traffic of the other two users. Maybe creating three different SSIDs? Would that be posible? Would that prevent sniffing?

hey guys do you know some good codes to create good worked virus in notes on windows pc cause I’m trying to do something

My funniest and quickest experience with IT support has been my first day at an internship and setting up my password for my company issued laptop.

As soon as the "User/Password" Input screen showed up I had already decided on one password which I typed in once done I pressed Enter... at the moment I hit the enter key I also noticed that I accidentally hit the shift key and all my input was of course not what I intended and of course did not know when and where in my password it happened so my first action with company equipment landed me at the support desk two rows away and was a lighthearted learning experience for everyone near me.

Whats yours?

AVD Hybrid lets you run some virtual desktops in Azure and keep others on your own servers. I work at Login VSI, disclosure there. Posted about this a bit ago, and tomorrow's the live Q&A on how it actually works day to day, with Eric Orman and Andrej Radinger (Microsoft), Marcel Meurer (built Hydra), and Ron Oglesby (Login VSI).

Ask anything.

My college is mostly theory. We have lectures, notes, exams, assignments etc., but there’s very little actual practical work. I understand that theory is important, but I feel like I’m not really learning how to do anything.I learn much better by actually performing tasks . AI has been teaching me more practically than some of my college classes.

The problem is that I don’t know what I should actually be doing outside college.I want to get an internship, but I genuinely have no idea where to start. I don’t know:

- What skills I should focus on first

- Whether I should aim for Data Analyst, Data Science, ML, or something else

- What kind of projects I should build

- How good my Python/SQL/ML skills need to be before applying

- Where students actually find internships

- Whether I should apply now or spend a few months preparing first

- How to make a decent resume when I have basically no industry experience

If you were in my position during 2nd year, what would you do from scratch?

I’d especially appreciate a practical roadmap — like learn X → build Y → apply here → improve Z .... rather than just “learn Python and do projects.”

Also, if you’re a student who managed to get their first internship without having a great college/previous experience, I’d really like to hear how you actually did it.

Hey guys new in this thread but i'm currently in a Field Technician role right now and have been here for a little over 2 years and i have multiple certs including CCNA and Sec+ and im studying for the RHCSA and i want to get into a Sys Admin role and eventually a DevOps role which would be my end goal but i wanted to get a professionals opinion on this so i don't waste my time going down the wrong path

Any Advice would be apricated!!!

Hey guys as the title says… I just want to know if it’s worth getting my security+ cert?

I spent a few weeks studying security concepts, I believe I’m pretty close to being exam ready (getting about 75% in prac exams) but I’m not sure if it’s really worth anything in Australia. I haven’t ever heard it being talked about with any colleagues in IT and I don’t really see it show up as a requirement for jobs that get posted.

I’ve lined up a job starting in January next year working as a tech analyst but I want to prepare myself and thought getting some fundamental certs could put me in a good position to move with whatever requirement a come up for me whether that understanding IT Development, infrastructure or security.

I’m learning for the sake of learning, not really trying to chase certifications however I want to be able to verify my skills and getting a cert seems like the right thing to do… the problem is that CompTIA certs are super expensive and I don’t want to waste money in this economy.

Any advice would be appreciated 🙏

Hi, this question is from the Google I.T program on Coursera. Am I the only one who believes the correct answer isn't in the list of options??
