what would you recommend for cybersecurity? i'm interested in a few things (shell scripting, web dev, nlp), but i'd also really liek to know how to stop hackers
Cybersecurity and "stopping hackers" are very extensive and complex topics. It's kinda like a mix of many areas of knowledge (software, hardware, coding, internet of things, etc...)
So one advice I think I can give you is that there is a "tool" of hacking that is often overlooked: Social Engineering.
i know a little bit about that, haven't done it much tbh. do you do any social engineering? is that like how you network with people at meetups and shit?
