I have a System76 Lemur Pro 10, while the hardware quality is poor (poor speakers, poor quality chassis, poor trackpad), it has been pretty solid otherwise for the last 4 years, with PopOS as my daily driver which I really love.

For work, I use a 2019 MacBook which has great hardware, but I am not a fan of MacOS. Will soon ask for upgrade to an M1. (My perfect laptop would be Apple hardware running PopOS).

My next laptop will likely be a Framework laptop unless System76 rolls out their own hardware which is much much improved than their current lot. I hope my current laptop will probably last 2-3 more years, if not more. (btw I use Steam Deck for gaming needs)

Yes, that crossed my mind. I can also use that time to prepare for interviews while keeping an eye on the job market & pick and choose an opportunity that's better for me.

yes, not gonna quit without a signed offer letter in hand...

chota means "small" in Hindi/Urdu, so I can proudly declare: I have a chota Chota

Thank you so much

Hey thanks for sharing. I'd like to go this in rust too. Did you do the course or the book or both?

Thank you for insightful response.

I do have AWS Solutions Architect Associate cert. I will eventually get more AWS certs. But networking has been one of my weak points when working as well as learning other stuff, so decided to focus on networks for a bit. Will continue the course, and if my employer agrees to pay the fees, will attempt the exam.

I've been studying BSTs recently with the book "Algo & DS in Python by Goodrich-Tamassia", this article seems to be the next thing to read. Thanks for sharing.
