Howto be a Hacker/Pentester/Security person - List of resources

I've just stolen HypnZA list of suggested links and added a few others by various people. (Please feel free to send me other links/info you think might be useful to add.)

HypnZA's commonly shared list (in the correct order):

1. https://www.hacksplaining.com
2. https://pentesterlab.com/exercises/web_for_pentester and https://pentesterlab.com/exercises/web_for_pentester_II
3. Watch Ippsec's HackTheBox videos from oldest to newest, but attempt the box in the video before watching the video (requires a paid hackthebox account to access the machines in the videos)
