How I got into tech.

Started by monsterb, this series invites people to share with us how they found Linux. It has become traditional for first time hosts to share with us their journey to Linux. Indeed it has morphed to be way to share your journey in tech right up to your first contribution to HPR.

Elsbeth talks about how she got started with technology, the issues she has faced as a female geek and gamer, aspects of her career with building computers and software quality assurance as well as other hobbies such as reading and yoga.

Welcome and Cybersecurity

Hello, and welcome to our community.

For your interest in books, may I recommend the audio book club episodes.

Google cybersecurity certification sounds interesting. Even though I personally don't have experience in this field, there are people here that do, like operat0r.

Welcome!

Welcome Elsbeth!

Thank you for sharing your introduction, and how you got where you are. It is sad that so many cyber jobs require a 4 year degree, when there are extremely skilled self-taught people ready and willing to be part of the solutions.

It is great to have you on HPR.
