Here is the round up of top 5 AMA answers:
"Spin up a virtual machine. VirtualBox is a great option. Then, start using it for day to day things. Email, browsing, etc. Find things you'd like to do, and Google how to do it. Enforcing this as a habit will help you learn the system. Check out Pop!_OS to start!"
"...remember, you're not being paid to write code, you're being paid to solve problems. How effectively you solve problems and how you work with others is the biggest differentiator and key to your career success."
"I enjoy both immensely. I would say I enjoy code more, only because I'm highly critical of myself as a writer, and still very much in the process of refining that. I'm more confident with my code."
"I think they should be as free as possible. However capital is needed to accomplish the goal of teaching. It's difficult to provide a good teaching experience without that support. I applaud many in the tech community that provide free education as they can."
"I see them evolving by getting more powerful. Two problems they currently have is thickness and power supply. If a company were to solve these two problems they'd certainly have a chance at mass adoption. Perhaps a kit that would fit into newer home construction."
