Linux Upskill Challenge

As the author of 14 college Linux administration textbooks since 2001, and someone who has taught IT in the college space for 22 years, I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed going…

Thanks for putting this out there. As an amateur developer who has picked up just enough linux skills to get by over the years, this looks like a great way to fill in some of the…

Thank for building and making it available for everyone for free. Sorry about your health. I hope you feel better.

Very generous of you, thank you! You've helped a lot of people out with this I'm sure. Wishing you the best.

I disagree that you know better. Research shows doing something daily and habitually is beneficial, but you shouldn't dictate that I need to do your content daily. For example,…

> I worry that were lessons available, students will just skim though the whole lot "in one go". I think this is a common pitfall of a number of beginner courses. Personally, I…

I'm a regular user but having been around for a while (and done some web dev) this course doesn't seem to go further (except in a few extensions) than my current…

Great work I've seen while doing my regular github foss browsing (by most recently updated), and thank you for putting CC4 on it. I also want to say I like the general format at…

There are a number of resources that may be useful for your curriculum for this project listed in "Is there a program like codeacademy but for learning sysadmin?"…

Good stuff. Thanks for all the effort you've put into it. One suggestion: Make it more obvious that the courses are on GitHub. I make a point to avoid reddit as much as possible,…

Great work! Was hoping though that you could view the course from the landing page - have you considered moving the course to a simple static website where it could be browsed…

Thank you very much for this! I am sorry that I did not know about it sooner. Anyway the question for HN - is it too "late" for a person to consider career change in 33? To…

Seems very interesting. I checked out the site and I want to find out why lessons need to be dished out weekly via Reddit. I'm curious. What is the rationale/history behind this?…

There are a number of resources that may be useful for your curriculum for this project listed in "Is there a program like codeacademy but for learning sysadmin?"…

Do you mind briefly discussing how you made the switch? What courses did you take etc? I am considering switching into IT and would love to hear how others did it. I am currently…
