Coming from Asia, where the status of tech education isn't quite great, I'd love to get a curated learning pathway instead of just going for certification exams. I think this channel has been excellent at cutting out the marketing fluff, so we should keep it real. Take for example, why not have a proper chat about how IT Support or even Sysadmins can move into the cloud? What are some of their common troubles, and how did some of them overcome that?

Thanks for the great content. It'd be nice to see more content on security in enterprise environments. In the use cases I work on, often enterprise security policies are the largest bottleneck by far (eg. connecting through IAP, networks rules, VPCs, vulnerability scanner with various types of policies, etc).
