Modern Software Engineering (Resurrected) - FOSS Edition - A Library of Free Quality Resources

Welcome to University of Anarchism (not the one in Paris), you don't need any qualification or tuition to attend. The curriculum demands 1 full year of 20-40 hours/week, daily split 4 hours for tutorials and 2-4 hours for books to parallely progress with both tutorials and books. It covers everything I need for a SWE L5-L7 job in the industry. Go at your own pace, take it one day at a time.
MSE doc: gist.github.com/lavantien/dc7...
dotfiles: github.com/lavantien/dotfiles
... and you'll get a real SWE L7 Certificate and MSc in Software Engineering official degree at the end of the journey.
I'm your professor (or more correctly, you're your own professor), I have a PhD in Xenology so don't worry about teaching quality.
You'll be proficient in 18 programming languages and 3 natural languages:
- Go, C, C++, Rust, JavaScript, Java, C# (7 main languages),
- Lua, TypeScript, Python, Scala, Ocaml, Lisp, Zig (7 support languages),
- Elixir on Phoenix, Ruby on Rails, PHP on Laravel, Cobol on Open Mainframe (4 ancient techs for backup, study yourself in section 20),
- HTML, CSS, Bash, JSON, YAML, etc.
- English, Pali, Mandarin (3 natural languages, to access the vast sources of knowledge),
- bottom-up approach of building enduring knowledge: morality and ethics, health and habits, no gods no masters, philosophy, maths, physics, first principles, basic tech primitives and protocols under the hood,
- and related technologies and methodologies for real world industry-grade and enterprise systems thorough this section.
Warning: Carefully read through the Notes section and all the notes here first before proceeding, most of your questions were probably answered, if you don't even have the attention span of a 7 year old child to be able to read through a few passages then just fucking leave, thanks. If you don't even know wtf is programming then this process will take many years! And this is not a get-rich-quick bootcamp or a one-trick-pony roadmap, it's just a plan to build good habits and real practical software engineering skills, and to have confidence to shut down scumbag interviewers who think they're god. Also, just ignore those soydevs who flex on us plebs with luxury apartments, macbooks, days-in-the-life, or girlfriends.

Hey I was also curious about the thing you mentioned in your roadmap - it's where you told us to look for senior & plus roles once you get done with the roadmap. So, how is it even possible to land a senior & plus role without any YOE?

[@cariyaputta]

@@kaz3741 that only apply to experienced devs. But you can always just count your pet projects as freelancing (for yourself), and try anyway, interviewing is a skill in itself so just apply for the reps and don't sweat too much.

Can u recommend a channel or videos for learning how to use obsidian

[@cariyaputta]

i only use obsidian together with excalidraw, already have that link in N.2.

Hey, I'm kinda confused about that roadmap. Like I want to get into Frontend/Backend so should I start from [D] Computer Science & Competitive Programming or [G] Fullstack but it doesn't start from basic HTML/CSS/JS or JAVA/PYTHON (for backend)

[@cariyaputta]

I wrote quite extensively in the beginning of the N. section. B, D, G, and K are supplementary resources, main roadmap is below with 20 sub-sections, with expected timeline and stuff.

[@kaz3741]

@@cariyaputta oh so I should do take supplementary courses first and dive deep into contents available in those 20 sections? Please don't mind me asking silly questions to you

Hey Cariyaputta, I was told that I'll be getting admitted in BTech (Bachelor's) CSE but it was all just a lie/deception maybe? They put me in BCA course, so is it gonna be any viable in pursuing job for me, in future? Have you heard of it, do you know anything about it?

[@kaz3741]

is it even worth to get this degree?!

[@cariyaputta]

i'm not Indian and don't know much about ít education system so can't help you there, use your own research skill and discernment. my rule of thumb is that public trade colleges are the best, followed by public prestige colleges/universities, and all private schools are a scam to extract money from the elites.
