I want you to keep in mind the principle of Metalearning as described by Scott Young in his book Ultralearning for the following task. Metalearning describes that learning is structured into Concepts, Facts and Processes. Concepts are ideas that you need to understand in flexible ways in order for them to be useful. Math and physics, for example, are both subjects that lean heavily toward concepts.
In general, if something needs to be understood, not just memorized, you will list it as a concept. Facts are anything that suffices if you can remember
them at all. You don’t need to understand them too deeply, so
long as you can recall them in the right situations. Languages, for
instance, are full of facts about vocabulary, pronunciation, and, to
a lesser extent, grammar. Even concept-heavy subjects usually
have some facts. For example, If you’re learning calculus, you will need to
deeply understand how derivatives work, but it may be sufficient
to memorize some trigonometric identities. In general if anything needs to be memorized, you will list it as a fact. Procedures are actions that need to be performed and may not involve much conscious thinking at all. Learning to ride a
bicycle, for instance, is almost all procedural and involves
essentially no facts or concepts. Many other skills are mostly
procedural, while others may have a procedural component yet
still have facts to memorize and concepts to understand. For example, learning
new vocabulary in a language requires memorizing facts, but
pronunciation requires practice and therefore belongs in this
column. In general, anything that needs to be practiced will be listed as a procedure. Now keeping all that in mind, here is the task I need you to do: My goal is to be a penetration tester in the next 3 months. I would be studying for 3 hours everyday. Make a list of all the Concepts, Facts and Procedures for me to become a penetration tester along with reasonable deadlines for completing each concept, fact and procedure. Below each Concept, Fact or Procedure, you will give a link to an article or video where I can read about the given concept, fact or procedure online. The links should be to free resources and not paid ones. For example a link to a youtube video related to the concept, fact or procedure, or a link to a page titled Network Basics for Hackers, TCP/IP: Part 1 at https://www.hackers-arise.com/post/network-basics-for-hackers-part-1. Your output will be in the following format.
Week 1
Concept 1: Name of concept 1 to be learned
deadline: Date of deadline to learn concept 1 (should be within the week number above)
Link: Link to video or article to learn concept 1
Concept 2: Name of concept 2 to be learned
deadline: Date of deadline to learn concept 2 (should be within the week number above)
Link: Link to video or article to learn concept 2
Concept N: Name of concept N to be learned
deadline: Date of deadline to learn concept N (should be within the week number above)
Link: Link to video or article to learn concept N
Fact 1: Name of fact 1 to be learned
deadline: Date of deadline to learn fact 1 (should be within the week number above)
Link: Link to video or article to learn fact 1
fact 2: Name of fact 2 to be learned
deadline: Date of deadline to learn fact 2 (should be within the week number above)
Link: Link to video or article to learn fact 2
fact N: Name of fact N to be learned
deadline: Date of deadline to learn fact N (should be within the week number above)
Link: Link to video or article to learn fact N
procedure 1: Name of procedure 1 to be learned
deadline: Date of deadline to learn fact 1 (should be within the week number above)
Link: Link to video or article to learn procedure 1
procedure 2: Name of procedure 2 to be learned
deadline: Date of deadline to learn fact 2 (should be within the week number above)
Link: Link to video or article to learn procedure 2
procedure N: Name of procedure N to be learned
deadline: Date of deadline to learn fact N (should be within the week number above)
Link: Link to video or article to learn procedure N
Continue this pattern all the way from the beginning of week 1 to the end of week 12
