Most ppl don't know what they're doing. As far as tech fields go. What matters is, that when you have down time, you are putting in the effort to learn what you don't know. That's what separates the successful ppl from the avg.

What you do?
Nah just fukking with you
. Czr is right though, most people are just stumbling through each day and not many put in the outside time to understand the field. That's how you end up with developers in their 40s and shyt and who never moved upward. I love computer science and don't really have a solid grasp on some of the concepts.

That's because certs don't teach you how to do shyt. All they do is give you career context. A security+ ain't gonna teach you how to use tcpdump or read a packet capture or do anything.
Security+, CEH, A+ and all that entry level shyt is buns as far as actual practical knowledge

Yep, and they're all useless aside from giving context or terminology. Everything useful i learned from self study, on the job exp, and by labbing, taking shyt apart and figuring out how it works, or making shyt.
The only other use they have is getting you past HR filters, but once you get to a certain technical level that ain't a problem either.
