Alex,
|
|
|
|
If you want to start hacking, start learning, and don't stop! Play
|
|
games after you've learned for a while. ;-) Besides, leaning Linux can
|
|
be fun because it's like a puzzle and things need to be solved. The
|
|
bottom line for a hacker is understanding the system, but more
|
|
importantly there are two issues which will help you immeasureably:
|
|
communication of what you've doing/done, either by writing or by
|
|
speaking, and understanding businesses principles. In my experience,
|
|
those that can combine hacking skills with being able to communicate
|
|
with and understand why hacking is good for business are at the top of
|
|
the hackers. Why? Because sometimes businesses don't understand the
|
|
technology, and they make the decisions and have the money, and
|
|
sometimes hackers can't explain why it's good for business to do what
|
|
they've described. If either the hacker or the business person gets an
|
|
"upper hand," it can take down a business very quickly by not remaining
|
|
competitive (penny wise, but pound/dollar foolish). The hacker and
|
|
business person are a team and they need to act like it. The best
|
|
combination is a hacker who understands business principles and a
|
|
business person who understands technology. These are rare breeds for
|
|
sure.
|
|
|
|
I hope this helps you. Good luck
|
