Solving for Technology
How to quickly learn valuable new skills in a madly changing technology world
No matter how good you are at what you do today, tomorrow will likely demand a whole new set of skills. Remember Fortran, 32-bit microprocessors, and mainframes? One day, perhaps sooner than we think, JavaScript and Docker might feel just as obscure. How to you plan to keep up?Well the first step is just that: plan. Start with questions:
- Which new technologies will impact your career?
- Which make the most sense to learn?
- What tools exist to help you with your learning?
- What's the best way to go about it?
Also, consider purchasing the paperback edition for yourself or a friend. Or perhaps writing a review on Amazon - those can really make a difference.
I really hope you find this book useful...and manage to solve all your technology and career problems!
