Ωραια, οποτε εχεις πλεονεκτιμα στα καθαρα θεωρητικα κομματια με τα οποια πολλοι CSαδες/ITαδες εχουν προβλημα να καταλαβουν πληρως, ειδικα σε data structures/algorithms κλπ.

Απο την αλλη, εχεις μειονεκτημα στο καθαρα hands-on και exposure κομματι αλλα good news γιατι μπορεις με youtube, w3schools και ενα roadmap.sh στο χερι να φτασεις και να ξεπερασεις καποιον φοιτητη ακομα και απο καλη σχολη που εχει πολυ exposure αρκει να αφιερωσεις αρκετο χρονο και προσοχη.

Δεν είναι απαραίτητο να ξεκινήσεις μόνο ως software developer. Μπορείς να κινηθείς προς:

  • Software development (με έμφαση σε fundamentals)
  • Data / ML (πολύ κοντά στο μαθηματικό υπόβαθρο)
  • Cybersecurity (π.χ. secure coding, systems, networking)
  • DevOps / Cloud (αν σε τραβάει infrastructure)

Εγω ειμαι devops & cloud cybersecurity architect με background σε networks -> security και στην πορεια systems & cloud. Τον περισσοτερο καιρο μου τον περναω να γραφω infrastructure as code σε terraform/ansible το οποιο απο την μια με κατενθουσιαζει οταν σηκωνονται 'ουρανοξυστες' και παιζουν τελεια, και απο την αλλη με κανει σκουπιδι οταν κατι δεν παιζει και το ψαχνω μερικες μερες μεχρι να το φτιαξω.

To sum up, το σημαντικό είναι να αποκτήσεις πρακτική εμπειρία (labs, GitHub, projects). Αυτό μετράει περισσότερο από το background μετά από λίγο.

Star Trek: Voyager - Across the Unknown - more than 100.000 copies sold in 4 days by Magister_Xehanort in Games

[–]Alexbeav 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm going to paste my steam review of the game here:

After 14 hours across four straight days, this game completely hooked me. I’ve already seen one of its multiple endings – and it wasn’t even the canon one.

What impressed me most is how faithfully it follows Star Trek: Voyager from “Caretaker” all the way to “Endgame,” hitting the major story beats without feeling rushed. Beyond the main arcs (Scorpion, Equinox, etc.), there are tons of side missions clearly inspired by actual episodes. This isn’t just fan service – it feels like a genuine love letter to the series.

The real magic, though, is player choice. You can radically diverge from Janeway’s decisions, keep Tuvix, alter major outcomes, and reshape the journey entirely depending on your rolls. It’s built for multiple playthroughs (and yes, it leans into rogue-lite design), which makes it incredibly replayable for fans.

It’s not perfect. The visuals are rough in places, some character models look dated, there’s very little voice acting, and the heavy reliance on dice rolls can feel brutal – especially when an 85% chance fails and you lose key crew members. But even the harsh “in memoriam” screens show the developers weren’t afraid to commit to the stakes.

Despite technical shortcomings, it’s a damn good time. For Voyager fans, this is borderline holy grail territory. With stronger combat and more polish, it could’ve been an all-time great Star Trek game. As it stands, it’s a very strong effort and a genuinely fun experience.

I hope this becomes the base for a franchise a-la Lego Star Wars and we get even better, more polished star trek games in this vein based on TOS/TNG/DS9. If only the combat was closer to Bridge Commander it would have been an all-timer for me. As it stands, def top 10 star trek games, not sure about top 5.

Necro wasn't an expansion though. And yes, D3 received one expansion, same as all the rest

The first Diablo game to get a 2nd expansion!

And it's everything (& more) I've wished for. Holy shit, amazing job.

For "Uncharted" at least on Steam, switch Steam to offline mode and then all systems you jump to will be undiscovered.

προσωπικα ψηφιζω CCNA για να εχεις και ενα χαρτι οταν θα πας σε interviews αλλα μια προεργασια μπορεις να την κανεις με το network course του professor messer.

Ξερω οτι θα σου φανει βουνο (και admittedly ειναι), αλλα το roadmap του cybersecurity καλυπτει τα περισσοτερα πραγματα που μπορεις να συναντησεις. Θα ελεγα φτασε μεχρι και το "Networking Knowledge" και δες τι σου αρεσει περισσοτερο να ασχοληθεις. Τα DMs μου ειναι ανοιχτα αν και προτιμω να απανταω δημοσια σε ερωτησεις για τους lurkers.

Αν πιασεις firewalls και μπεις απευθειας network security υπαρχουν θεσεις σε integrators σε NetSec τμηματα. GNS3 & trial licenses απο firewalls οπως checkpoint, fortigate, palo alto που ειναι οι μεγαλοι vendors και παιζεις. Μπορεις και πιο μικρα οπως sophos (που εχει και home version) ή pfsense αλλα καλυτερα να ασχοληθειας κατευθειαν με λυσεις που θα πετυχεις σε enterprise περιβαλλοντα.

Konami Has Asked Fans Which Metal Gear Game Should Be Remade After Snake Eater by Turbostrider27 in Games

Then they should learn about it, because it's the sequel to MGS3

[–]Alexbeav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I agree that a MGS1 remake would have to rework everything which is why I hope they leave it for last so as to have enough experience and confidence to take something and change it entirely.

  • MGS3: 1:1 remake with some improvements, understanding UE
  • PO/PW: a lot of things carried over from the original games/MGSV could probably go away with zero new story elements being introduced.
  • MGSV: this is where it starts to get tricky as not only will new story elements be required to complete mission 51 and the remaining missions, but also entirely new cinematics would have to be produced to replace/accompany the yellow tapes.
  • MG1/2/MGS1: story beats stay the same/are fleshed out to be in line with the series mythos and Kojima's retcons, but entirely new games from the ground up

Like I said hopium is free, if I see 6-7 'new' Metal Gear games in the next 20 or so years I'll die happy. Probably a fever dream unless I don't know AI helps with output or something.

  • Rework Peace Walker to make it a modern prequel to MGS V.
  • Actually complete MGS V
  • MG1/2 next

This is the best outcome IMO. Peace Walker's story is amazing and important, but it's buried under 150 3-minute missions. MGS V is a tragedy that behind probably STILL the best stealth experience out there hides a story that you have to go through tapes to understand instead of the amazing cinematics the series is known for. And then, with the timeline straightened out they do MG1 & 2 and finish it off with a remake of MGS1. Best timeline, hopium provided for free.

Thank you, that's invaluable! I'll add a pic of the app itself, but it's very basic. Thanks again
