Ask HN: [Advice] How to start learning about Computer Science/Engineering?

3 pointsby scarecrowxalmost 7 years ago
I&#x27;m dev with 2 years of exp. I know some programming languages (java, javascript, python &amp; go) but only concern is most of the time i use APIs created by someone else (usually open sourced solution)<p>I&#x27;m not CS student but i want to go in depth to learn and create something new. Any suggestions where do i start and what kind of prerequisites i should be having ?

Watch conference presentations&#x2F;youtube about cool tech.<p>Learn (read: Google) about and experiment with what interests you.<p>Use your network (go to meetups if you don&#x27;t have one) to find intersection between interesting tech, and roles&#x2F;opportunities in the marketplace. Then double-down on those (learning, OSS contrib, etc) so you can become more appealing to employers.
