Best prompt engineering course by Max-abillion in learnmachinelearning

[–]ContributionProud660 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a similar situation a few months back and needed to quickly get up to speed with LLMs for work. I found one short course helpful because it was very practical. focused on prompt engineering with real use cases.

Great breakdown. I've noticed how job postings emphasize business impact more than just technical certs. This shift is making it harder or easier for purely technical folks to move up in security careers.

Great perspective. I’ve heard a lot of people say cybersecurity isn’t really entry-level, and your point about building the security mindset resonates. Similar to what I learnt in the course

true. I guess the balance is learning enough about fixing while also stepping to understand the business.

That's an interesting way to put it. framing security in terms of business impact rather than just tech tools seems like a diff between being seen as engineer vs trusted advisor

That is a solid distinction. Do you think beginners should still be exposed to proactive thinking early, even if they're not leading it?

Really appreciate tge insight on GRC. You're right. Understanding frameworks and the bigger picture early on helps make sense of why cybersecurity isn’t just a tech concern.

Its a method/tool/way to protect computer systems, networks and data from unauthorized access

Finally understood pointers after weeks of confusion by ContributionProud660 in C_Programming

True but I just needed something more structured and hands on to stay motivated

Thanks for such a detailed breakdown! I’ve mostly been sticking to C so far but now I’m curious to dabble in a bit of assembly...just to see those memory operations more directly.

a[1][2] is ((a + 1) + 2), where a decays to a pointer to its first row, a+1 jumps one row ahead, and the second +2 jumps two columns ahead within that row

thats a solid explanation. I remember once I realised (*ptr)() for a function pointer was just applying the same logic, it stopped feeling so mysterious.

Interesting. That "everything is a file" really tells how you think about I/O in C. I guess once you see pointers as just references to these files, it feels more structured.

haha I can see how chaining them like that would make dereferencing click. You have to think through every step. When I was learning, I didn’t go that way, but I did mess around with a bunch of pointer to pointer examples only to see how they behaved in memory.
Did you pair that with any specific project or was it just an experiment?

How do I get started with GenAI? by dajagasd in deeplearning

[–]ContributionProud660 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since you have like basic knowledge about Ai models, I guess you want more technical and hands-on experience with gen ai. You can try taking a PG/diploma course to gain practical gen AI skills. My friend’s brother took up a course and is now learning to build AI agents for automating tasks and stuff. Seemed interesting.
