As with everything, you need solid foundations before leaping into anything advanced.

That's why I recommend reading upon how Ethereum works first.

This should give you a great overview of inner workings of Ethereum.

Next, Solidity!🐍

My Top 5 Linux 🐧Distros

🧵↓
1. Kali Linux🏆
I hand over the award to Kali Linux for the best Linux distro I've had an amazing experience with. I love Kali Linux because it's specifically geared towards what I love, that is Penetration Testing. Image
2. Manjaro
Manjaro is a user-friendly and open-source Arch-based Linux OS. It is very easy to install, unlike Arch Linux which you have to do a lot of work to get it up and running. Manjaro takes all of the hassles out of installing Arch. Image

The Linux🐧 commands you should NEVER use.
⚠️Disclaimer: Don't RUN these commands.

A thread🧵👇
1. Recursive Deletion🔁🗑️
This is one of the most dangerous commands. Once this command is run, it deletes all the content of the root directory forcefully and recursively. Thus, all your directories and sub-directories will be deleted and the data will be lost.
2. Fork Bomb🍴💣
My personal best😄, this is a simple bash recursive function which once executed creates copies of itself which in turn creates another set of copies of itself. This consumes the CPU time and memory. Thus, it runs recursively until the system freezes.
