Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

My bachelor's in software engineering starts in quite a few months

I am thinking of downloading Linux and learning the Linux terminal using the Linux bible.

then learning video, photo, and vector editing.

After that finishing the rest of the cs50 except the scratch one.

Lastly, becoming extremely good at Python

How does it all sound?

The reason I am learning photo/video editing is because my sibling has done game dev/web, freelance and office work, those things come in handy to showcase your work and for a lot of other uses.

The reason for learning Linux is because of this post and I am thinking of (later on after finishing my bachelors) getting a Red Hat certificate since I have seen multiple job posting on LinkedIn related to it. So I was thinking of downloading Fedora and learning the Linux terminal now, to get comfortable with it.

Thanks for your input, I should definitely focus on making and finishing projects.
