How I think now - first day in the grind ! - 1

Hello friends, 

This blog I am using it to document my journey in the computer world. I used to be a Sommelier, when I started getting into wines - I started a mother blog about wine and beverages hoping to document everything beverage related there which now I am switching to computer and allies. I did spent almost 10 years in hospitality with special interests in wine and beverages of all kinds, but I no longer anticipate to be active in the wine world. 

‘Documentingcybersecurity.blogspot.com’ officially is a documentation blog of everything I learn about computer, technology, cybersecurity. I would have really enjoyed reading about the evolution later in my life whenever I had started anything new, only if I had taken the time to document the whole process. But, now I am doing it with my computer education because I am a newbie at present. I had spent considerable time in my life trying to acquire atleast some knowledge almost about everything which have impacted my life besides computers/technologies, because I had regarded this area as something I would never need to venture into- so I was happy with the basics I learned by just being in the flow - like watching the advertisements in the T.V without intending to watch them - if you know what I mean. Getting into documentation mode now - I wondered whole day trying to figure out what would be the best approach for me to take if I want to get the most out of my cybersecurity and ethical hacking educational journey. I could tell any front of the house students in hospitality what they are getting into and how they could contribute to the highest level; I am looking for similar kind of guidance in the field of information technology. 

I did some research about programming languages which incuded googling and watching few youtube videos. I know for the first time that there are many programming languages and in sort of rough hierarchy starting from something close to the C.P.U and upwards are -Assembly, C, C++, C#, Java, Swift, PHP, Javascript, Phython, Ruby. And there is also GO now, developed by google. C programming is the fundamental and the oldest language developed Circa 1972. Python is one of the most versatile and widely used. Also, there is Java which is somehow like a combination of C and C++ , also very popular. Javascript is also hot - used extensively in webdesignings. After gathering the basic informations of all these programming languages - I opt to start my journey by learning C language on my own using the resources I will be finding in the internet. This is something I am doing on my own in-addition to what I would be learning in college- which has technically started last week but I havent been to college because of COVID -19 pandemic.

The perfect laptop,

 All of last week, I was in search of a perfect laptop. A laptop which is ideal for IT students and especially for cyber security and ethical hacking majors. What are the essential feature of a perfect laptop then, yes for IT students. Even though , I really haven't figured it out exactly, I have come up with all the important factors to consider before investing on a laptop. And here I have the beginners list: A. Paying attention to the processor is the key. Processor relating to the CPU of the laptop is considered the brain. The powerful the processor is , the more task the laptop can perform with ease. But, here is the caveat - powerful processor also tends to use more power which should imply the battery life. Laptop which gives relatively longer battery life is advantageous in many fronts to an IT student. Therefore, choose a laptop with good processor but it does not have to be a laptop with ultra powerful processor. As of this writing, Intel Core I5 and equivalence is the le...
