I have thousands of different licenses you could purchase to put on your resume.

“licensing” is not resume building.

Paying for courses and continuous learning is.

How is paying for licenses career building?

As far as R# it’s about the increased efficiency. Everything else Linux Academy, Udemy, etc is about learning technologies.

If I had a desire to be an iPhone developer, I would gladly pay $99 a year to publish an app to the store to show to potential employees/clients.
