There are two types of programmer.
- One is clever enough to know they can solve the problem.
- The other too stupid to realize they can't.
Both are just as likely to succeed.
@TreciaKS I started learning Python 20 years ago. I still feel that way many days.
No matter how good you get, there are always seemingly impassable walls. When you climb over one, you just find another.
Focus on what you've already conquered, they remind you how far you've come.
@xsgames_ Damn straight. Unfortunately, the source of my pressure is often me, not the company I work work. I constantly feel guilt for under achieving.
@ThePrimeagen Develop locally, remotely, in venv's, on Windows, Linux and Mac. Work on Desktop apps or as a Full Stack dev and it just adapts. A great alternative to vim :)
@nixcraft You might consider Starcraft 2. It seems to run on Linux and is free to play. Might only be for the 13 to 14 yo range, although my 9yo plays.
@loftwah Python. People forget programming is becoming more essential in everyday jobs.
It’s simple enough to empower the majority, and a good stepping stone to other languages for anyone wanting to major in computer studies.
I meet non IT people regularly who use Python.
